Hello everyone, my first post here.

I have upgraded from the XS Max to the 12 PM and decided to shoot some pictures side by side to see where are the improvements.

All pictures below are taken straight from the camera app without any editing.

On some pictures, I noticed that the pictures taken with the 12 PM are more yellow than the XS Max.

In Portrait mode, the 12 PM gives much better results by far

Using the telephoto (2.5X in the 12 PM and 2x in the XS Max)

Low light conditions (night mode off). There are more details on the 12 PM pictures and they are less blurry

Goes to show the even if the 12 is better, the XS was still a brilliant camera
 
Relieved to see some photos that don't look hyper synthetic. Thanks to all who posted those.

Apple has to fix what happens with photos of greenery (tree leaves/bushes), especially in wide shots. That's a real issue. Maybe primary greens in general.

Couple from the last few days. The two cow shots are the same position but one on the wide lens and one on the 65mm telephoto. Stairs pic is ultrawide, all with my own spin on the look and feel. Loving the camera so far.

Not liking some of the pics I see here, looks like 11 Pro with a HDR filter turned up too high resulting in a loss of depth in the image. Some of the images look too flat I find myself getting confused and not knowing where to look in the pic (this happens with almost all the night shots I’ve seen and a decent number of daylight shots).

BTW this has nothing to do with the photographers and their compositions, the image processing seems to be the issue.

This. Although I think it's photo by photo and there are multiple problems being created by the software here depending on the conditions so I don't think we can really diagnose what the culprit is aside from just seeing most photos are drowning in image processing.

That said, the flatness without real depth (not the fake after processing blurring) where your eye can't focus is one of the more consistent issues.

Did Apple remove the feature where you can zoom out after a photo was a taken? I think it used to take 2 pictures. One with each camera and you could zoom out to the “other” cameras photo...

On the 11 series deep fusion wouldn't work if you had capture outside the frame turned on in settings, can anyone confirm if deep fusion works with it on, or do you need to turn off capture outside the frame for deep fusion to work.

With iOS14 you can no longer capture outside the frame, there's only option for a view. On the other side deep fusion is always available according to light conditions.

Great photos people, but my EXIF viewer reveals that a number of them in this thread were shot with Canon, Sony, Panasonic cameras LOL! I won’t reveal who the suspects are - anybody here with a very good EXIF viewer can find out. I’ll leave one clue - looks like about 20% of the images here so far are not from Apple devices. There’s even one from a Pixel 4a hahahahahha ; )
lol, well I resaved in Affinity photo because attachment size limit
