Most of the photos Apple highlights in this campaign are also shot with very expensive external lenses.

False. Not a single one of them used any external lens at all, according to the page itself. This may be true for the campaign as a whole, but it's not true for the page under discussion in this thread.

I see no claims on this page that no external equipment was used, and it's known that professional lens rigs have been used in these "Shot on iPhone" campaigns in the past. https://petapixel.com/2017/06/30/truth-shot-iphone-style-ads...
