Main camera for first two and 5x for the last one.
 
Welp... took a bunch of RAW photos and exporting them to JPEG size small enough to upload here makes them look like crap.

I have some learning to do...

they look AMAZING though. take my word for it... 🤣

I couldn’t get imgur to work so I have been taking screenshots of the photos once I post them on Instagram, cropping it out, and posting them here. oof.

I have a shortcut to convert any picture to JPEG or HEIF. I think it’s in the shortcut gallery, so easily available to add. Easier option for when you want something smaller.

Welp, first one I found and tried makes the original RAW look like seeing 4k HDR on a good OLED for the first time and the converted file like watching the same footage/photo on a 20 year old VGA LCD monitor.

Not worth the near zero effort...

The hunt continues.

These are the ones I’ve been using. See if they’re better?

The pictures I posted before were all RAW, and MR accepted them happily so maybe they increased limits. All the same, same pic run through the shortcut, went from 25MB RAW to 1.1MB.

Welp, the shortcut ran great, photos looks great! However... went from 95MB to 23MB

So, the JPEGs are still too large to load here... Thanks for the links though!

I tried posting a 1.9mb portrait shot at 24mp and I couldn’t because the photo was too large. Must be a certain dimension rather than file size limitation.

A bit of comparison of focal lengths.
Not the easiest conditions for a cellphone camera or best photos, but here they are.
Straight out of the camera app.
28mm, 120mm, 249mm
The wide shot had to be downsized to attach here.
really not bad for 25X digital. almost usable
