Do the new guts and 1080p bump make a big difference? Yes. A giant yes. See just how amazing for yourself. This perfectly-synced test, which used a special bit of rigging to align both the 4S and a Canon EOS 5D Mark II to capture the exact same scene, says way more than any Apple marketing verbiage can. With the 5D's settings matched as closely as possible to the 4S, the two—at least on Vimeo—look nearly indistinguishable. Yes, if you look closely, the 5D wins. It's got greater detail, depth of field, doesn't suffer from the iPhone's jarring rolling shutter problems, and of course has a giant panoply of manual settings any phone lacks. But the point remains: Apple's created a handset camera that can shoot pro-grade (albeit limited) video. And for a small, small fraction of the price.
