The iPhone 13 Pro features four cameras: one front-facing camera for selfie and three rear-facing cameras which includes a telephoto, wide, and ultra-wide camera. The rear-facing cameras all contain larger sensors than the iPhone 12 Pro, allowing for more light-gathering. The wide and ultra-wide also have larger apertures to capture more light and increase low-light performance. The ultra-wide camera also has autofocus for the first time. The 77 mm telephoto has a smaller aperture than the 12 Pro's, but has the advantage of being able to use Night Mode. The larger telephoto also increases the digital zoom capability to 15x.

The cameras use a new computational photography engine, called Smart HDR 4. Smart HDR 4 processes recognized faces in photos separately using local adjustments. Users can also choose from a range of photographic styles during capture, including rich contrast, vibrant, warm, and cool. Apple clarifies this is different than a filter because it works intelligently with the image processing algorithm during capture to apply local adjustments to an image.{{Cite web|last=Brookes|first=Tim|title=How Apple's Photographic Styles Work on iPhone|url=https://www.howtogeek.com/755572/how-apples-photographic-styles-work-on-iphone/|access-date=September 25, 2021|website=How-To Geek|date=September 19, 2021 |language=en-US|archive-date=September 25, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210925143539/https://www.howtogeek.com/755572/how-apples-photographic-styles-work-on-iphone/|url-status=live}}

The camera app contains a new mode called Cinematic Mode, which allows users to rack focus between subjects and create a shallow depth of field using software algorithms. It is supported on wide, telephoto, and front-facing cameras in 1080p at 30 fps. Apple also added in iOS 15.1 the ability to record in Apple ProRes 4K at 30 fps and 1080p at 60 fps for models with at least 256 GB of storage, however base models with 128 GB of storage will be limited to ProRes recording at 1080p at 30 fps.{{cite web |title=iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max |url=https://www.apple.com/iphone-13-pro/ |website=Apple |access-date=September 25, 2021 |archive-date=January 26, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220126061353/https://www.apple.com/iphone-13-pro/ |url-status=live }}

The camera features a macro mode that can focus as close as 2 centimeters from a subject.
