Smart HDR is a feature used to improve photo quality, it shouldn't affect video quality AFAIK. It stacks multiple images with different exposures into one image, I don't see this happening in video. 60 fps looks almost fakish smooth, but it also needs a little more light. You should just try it out to see what you like. I still shoot most video in 1080p because I don't own any devices with a higher resolution and because for now I think it's good enough for family stuff. Answer from Deleted User on reddit.com

It sounds obvious, but make sure you clean the lens before every photo. Even the smallest amount of dust or smears really degrade the image quality on a sensor that small. I usually give it a quick polish on my T-shirt before taking an important photograph. More on reddit.com

Getting the most out of iPhone XS camera

Welcome to the XS. It’s a brilliant device with an incredible camera. I’m an avid photographer and I’ve always used the stock camera app. But I rely heavily on apps like Ps Camera or Snapseed to enhance the photos. It really makes a difference.

r/iPhoneXS on Reddit: Getting the most out of iPhone XS camera
July 5, 2019 -

Hey,

I'm a recent convert. I've been using Android practically since it came out and have been thinking about making the switch for some time. Last week I saw a crazy deal from my carier for a brand new iPhone XS 512gb and I knew it was time for me to make the switch. I'm slowly settling and I like it so far. I was using a Pocophone F1 beforehand and since MIUI has heavy iOS influence, it was quite an easy transition. However, I have mixed feelings about this camera. It's really hit and miss for me and I have to say the Pocophone took better photos in some situations, especially indoors, thanks to Gcam mod.

So my question is this... Are there and hidden settings to enable to improve photo quality? Any other tips and tricks for me? I'm willing to give third party apps as well.

Thanks in advance.
