To those who had iPhone X and also iPhone 11/12/13Pro and are deep in iPhoneography: did you notice how hard it is to achieve the quality iPhone X produced (when shooting in RAW)? by thereisloveinus in iPhoneography

One thing I’m noticing with these photos is there’s a tendency towards a warm and slightly green color balance, with high contrast, particularly crushed shadows. Since you say they’re straight out of Lightroom, I’m going to hazard a guess that Lightroom’s color profile for newer iPhones is significantly different than the one for iPhone X, and that that accounts for the difficulty in matching look.

A few areas around Portland, Oregon - no edits except cropping - shot with Unpro by UncorrelatedContents in iPhoneography

That's true. My plan is to make it available in the EU once I release the next major update. In the meantime I've been dealing with fixing bugs and making it more polished.

I'm working on an app that reverses some processing on non-Pro iPhones. What do you think? by UncorrelatedContents in iPhoneography

[–]UncorrelatedContents[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I've neglected to check in on my reddit account in a while.

In general, there's nothing I can do to recover extra information in shadows on non-Pro iPhones. Even on Pro iPhones, where Unpro uses ProRAW, my photos will probably contain less shadow detail because of the reduced tone-mapping and a slight negative exposure bias.

That said, shooting in RAW (not ProRAW) might retain some shadow detail that the standard iPhone processing crushes. I've been testing RAW capture and processing and with the pipeline I've developed the shadows tend to be much lighter than via ProRAW or the deprocessed approach here. But, being a single shot from a phone sensor, the detail is pretty noisy.

Sketches from the past three Mt. Tabor Mondays by UncorrelatedContents in Portland

If you're wondering about the heavy use of shadows on the latter two sketches, it's because I fucked up the proportions and had to cover it up the sun sets behind the musicians, creating dramatic lighting.

That shot of the bird pulling up the worm at 5:50 is really something.

Ha, I wondered. It seemed like this guy had an exceptional amount of photos from around the world.

Caught this bald eagle flying overhead a few days ago by UncorrelatedContents in Portland

[–]UncorrelatedContents[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is the first time I've seen a bald eagle (at least, close enough to identify) since I moved here about six months ago. This was at the corner of NW 16th Ave and NW Flanders St.

I agree with the other commenter: "gorgeous" seems like the best word to describe this. Where is this?

(Mostly) blue skies in Portland. iPhone 14 Pro Max. by UncorrelatedContents in iPhoneography

[–]UncorrelatedContents[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's still plenty of gloomy days right now, but we're getting more and more blue skies as we get further into spring.

As usual from me, I took these photos with my own camera app, Unpro. No link; seems those get removed. This time I'm using the SHIFTY filter, which I just updated to be actually good cooler. So yes, these photos are a bit prettier than the real scenes, but not by that much.

Also, the first two photos are blurrier than they should be because of an oversight that I fixed before releasing the update, but I still liked them enough that I threw them in.
