Apple Highlights Best 'Shot on iPhone XS' Photos

Here is one of my best XS shots from this weekend. Nice detail, bokeh, and highlights:



This next one is not the most interesting shot but it shows the capability when shooting directly into the sun. In years past this photo would be more of a silhouette:

Are you all blind? That bokeh is horrible. It looks like it is unnaturally distorted. It does look like washed image.

I’m not sure what’s worse audiophiles or photography/camera snobs.

They missed this one.

Nice enough pics but they border on looking artificial and photo-shopped.

Absolute butter. Good job man.

These are some of the most amazing portraits I’ve seen. Amazing!

wow this is insane.

Well, it helps a little that I'm an actual photographer. I went to an autumn festival thing with my wife and kids and forgot my camera. While it's no Sony a7R III, it's pretty freaking good for a phone and it turned out to be a fun challenge to try to get the same kind of shots I would usually use my mirrorless gear for. I did edit these photos a little in Adobe Lightroom Mobile, but I feel like I didn't need to do very much, and I would use Lightroom anyway for any photo I take that I would post online or print. When I did try pushing them more to see how they responded, they seemed to be able to be pushed further due to the dynamic range pulling in the highlights and shadows meaning that there are less opportunities for clipping. Not half bad for a JPG (or HEIF). I get better edited JPGs out of this thing than shooting with the RAW mode in Lightroom Mobile and editing that.
