iPhone 15 Pro Noisey Photos

[Lee_Mac]

I've just jumped up from my old 11P to a 15P and seem to bee having problems with very noisy images. This is shooting 48mp RAW too. I never seemed to have this much on the old 11P. Looking at the photos info the ISO is high, 1250, so not hugely a bright scene but would have expected a bit better than this to be fair. Suggestions on a postcard please

Shouldn’t look like that… possibly a faulty image sensor.

You are shooting RAW and at 1250 ISO. This level of noise is expected. If you don't want noise, either use HEIC, or then use denoise in post-processing (Lightroom etc).

I am shooting RAW at 1250, but not sure why shooting in HEIC which is a compressed file would make things better? The post I\m making is things look worse than my old 11P?

because RAW doesn't (or shouldn't) apply much noise removal, if any. Also 1250 ISO isn't the same on this small sensor as the larger camera sensors so more noise is expected.

Because RAW only applies minimal noise removal. By shooting RAW, you skip all of the iPhone "smart processing". If you shoot HEIC, you get a subjectively better picture because the whole smart post-processing is already done by Apple.

Ah ok will knock raw off and see if it helps.
