    iPhone 8 plus image quality

    UPDATE 23/09/217 @DannyT2011 Just pointed out that you can in fact turn on HDR when you want! Rather than relying on the 'Auto' setting which you have zero control over when it will kick in! Just turn off 'Auto HDR' in the camera settings, found in 'Settings.' Then, you will have 'HDR' reappear...

    iPhone 8 plus camera can turn off HDR!

    UPDATE (22/09/2017) It turns out you actually can turn off the HDR feature that ships turned on by default on the iPhone 8 plus! Thank goodness for that! James Martin, the senior photographer for CNET obviously didn't go into the settings to verify his claim that it couldn't be turned off. The...

    The Little Notch at the Top

    Is it just me or does anyone else like the notch at the top of the screen where the FaceTime Camera, sensors etc reside? I think it gives the IPhone X a unique look. Also the alternative would be to have a straight bezel at the top which I think would be more ugly and you would also lose the...

    Camera app skin tones and highlights are terrible

    Hey all, I'm an iPhone 7+ user for the past couple of months. Overall, I think its a great phone and I've really enjoyed using it. I bought it specifically for the portrait mode and overall I'm pretty thrilled with the effect, especially for quick and dirty portraits. Definitely the best...

    Use iPhone to remote control another?

    I am using my iPhone 7 for product photography. The iPhone is clamped in a bracket and that makes it hard to use. Also when it is set up and level I don't want to disturb it. I would like to remote control the iPhone 7 to use the spirit level, camera and camera apps. I'd also like switch...

    iPad Pro iPad Pro 10,5: USB 3 Camera Adapter vs. SD Card Camera Reader

    I need an adapter to import photos from my camera to my 10,5 iPad Pro when I am away from my Mac. I just don't understand the difference between the USB 3 Camera Adapter and the SD Card Camera Reader. Of course, I know that the first will require my regular camera data cable while the latter can...

    The iPhone 7plus Portrait mode: ingenious or rubbish?

    Since a couple of month the iPhone 7plus is out, and one very special feature is this portrait mode. I got it very early. And had to wait until the release of the portrait mode. It has some ups and downs - and it is still in a beta phase.... My questions: Does it work? How does it perform...

    iPhone SE (2016) Is the 1.2mp front camera on the iPhone SE noticeably bad?

    I'm thinking of getting an iPhone SE. I like the 4" screen size and don't mind the lack of 3D touch or 2nd gen touch ID. And the rest of the internals are virtually the same as the 6s. However the one thing that is bugging me is the weaker front camera. Only 1.2mp in 2017 seems pretty bad. For...

    Dashcam Recommendations?

    I want to buy a dashcam but I have absolutely no idea what to look for. Any recommendations? At this point I'll take features to get/avoid, makes/models to get/avoid, etc. An Amazon search returns an overwhelming number of options and I just don't know where to start. Thanks!
