iPhone 13 Pro Max iPhone 13Pro - how to take advantage of the camera department?

[Giuanniello]

HEllo,

I am a passionate photographer who uses either reflex or D-SLR to take pictures but I also own an iPhone 13 in the pro max sauce and would like to know if there is any app which takes full advantage of the camera department, I don't really use it for other than snapshots and never investigated at how to get the best out of it, any hint?

Grazie

Halide is one option.

Halide or use Apple Pro Raw and edit in Lightroom or Lightroom mobile, that will give you the most control over the photos you take.

Curious if anyone knows if the quality of images taken in Apple ProRAW format differ from RAW (DNG) in Lightroom mobile (or any other camera app that supports RAW for that matter).

Apple ProRAW is also in dng-format, and I would say quality sometimes is better with other apps, like Moment. But it usually depends on what lens is in use and photo situation.
Apple adds both their own profile and AI-tweaking on the RAW and those can make the photo sometimes seems sharper, especially in Photos app on the phone.

I thought this article was interesting:

I’m shooting RAW with my iPhone but I’m not sure I should - Life after Photoshop

Don’t get me wrong. I really value the processing headroom of RAW files, whether they’ve been shot on a phone or a full frame camera, but I’m starting to think the iPhone might be a special case.
