I just ignore them, those noise and grain. And then i started caring more about composition, environmental lightning and editing, and some other factors that make a photo good. I don't make money from photography, so i don't need my photos to be perfect. I learned resolution and noise aren't important, what emotions the photos bring is important. Because my mind is used to ask me " If you take this great photo that you love and reduce half of its resolution, add noise, grain. Would you still love it?". And my answer is always yes.

r/iPhoneography on Reddit: How the hell do you guys take good photos with an iPhone 12 Pro

Whenever I take photos with my iPhone 12 Pro, they come out with HUGE noise, low quality, and horrible lighting. How are you guys getting these good photos and how do you get rid of the noise and grain?

Composition and lighting. Focus on these two and you’ll be fine. Night mode (faux-long exposure) and the built in post processing can make up for poor lighting and shakey hands but it’s truly an eye test for what you think would be a good shot. Some of the best photos you will ever see will be grainy as hell, but the composition makes up for it. Personally I like grain because it makes it look like a natural camera photo; the built in post processing makes iPhone photos look so over sharpened and modified that it’s difficult to enjoy.

r/iphone on Reddit: iPhone 12 camera settings
October 18, 2022 -
Hi
With my iPhone 12 camera settings everything is extremely vivid / sharp and I'm not happy with the output. Being honest it makes every imperfection look a billion times worse
On other cameras / old Samsung pictures look great but on iPhone everything is extremely vivid / sharp etc. Was much easier to change settings on Samsung phones as well
How can to reduce this on iPhone 12 camera? there appears to be very little filters other than brightness
Many thanks,

How to Take the Best Photos With Your iPhone 12 Pro or 12 Pro Max
January 12, 2021 - The wide and telephoto lenses come with dual-optical image stabilization to compensate for shaking during picture taking. The iPhone 12 Pro Max takes this to the next level with sensor-shift optical image stabilization for even better image quality. Open the Camera app, and you'll find several options for taking a photo, with Photo mode open by default.

r/iPhoneography on Reddit: What are the best camera settings for people who want the best quality without being required to do editing?
January 15, 2024 -
There’s been posts and lengthy articles on this topic but responses vary and they’re often complicated.
I’ve ruled out ProRes Log, but everything else I’m not sure about.
Here are some examples:
Enhanced Stabilization
Action Mode Lower Light
Auto FPS
HEIF Max or ProRAW Max
Apple ProRes
Prioritize Faster Shooting

Enhanced stabilization - this will sacrifice the amount that you can “zoom out” on a video in order to produce a video that isn’t shaky. I highly recommend keeping this on. Action mode lower light - this feature uses the ultra-wide lens while shooting. It allows you to move the camera around a LOT and the end result is buttery-smooth. This process needs a lot of light because it’s using the ultra-wide lens, which needs more light to perform well. If you turn this on, they will let you use it in lower lighting conditions than usual, but the quality of the stabilization and overall image will not be of amazing quality. Off is the default choice here. Auto FPS - I actually hate this feature. It will drop your video frame rate if the light levels are very low. When the frame rate is lower, the sensor has more time to capture light in each frame. Basically it sacrifices your frame rate for a brighter image. In reality, the transition is clunky and 24fps looks really bad for anything other than cinema. I gave it a try for about a week, I’ve left it off ever since. HEIF max vs ProRAW - Use HEIF or HEIF Max as your default (HEIF max allows you to zoom in further to your images). ProRAW captures a LOT more data in your images, which allows you to make heavy edits with lighting and color. If you have no intention heavily editing a photo, keep this off… the photos it takes are huge (upwards of 50x larger than HEIF files). ProRES - If you don’t already know what this is, do not use it. This is for filmmakers. This produces MASSIVE video files that will eat up your storage very quickly. Prioritize faster shooting - What’s more important to you? Taking better photos or being able to snap many pictures back to back quickly, but at a lower quality? I keep this off, I want all my photos to be in the highest quality… but your needs may be different than mine.

Are you talking about still photography or videography? Generally speaking it is virtually impossible to get the image you have in your mind without doing any editing at all.
