Hi all.
I have to confess that my knowledge of camera settings is basically none existant. I don't understand terms like iso / exposure / aperture etc. I generally point and shoot with my mobile phones, trusting the auto settings will work ok. Prior to my iPhone 14 pro max I had a Google pixel 6 and that took amazing photos. However, the camera on my 14 pro max sucks. I've attached a photo of my dog. It's a pixalated blurry mess. I've got phones which are several years old which take better photos than this. I took several photos and they all came out like this. Even when one looks OK, it looks heavily pixalated when you zoom in which my previous phones didn't. I don't really understand what's going on. Why are the photos so bad? I've read something about the 14PM having a larger sensor and as a result you need to hold the phone slightly further away than usual. I've played about with that but it makes little to no difference.
