Pictures Taken with iPhone 6 / 6 Plus

Cute shots, but take a look at the door on the first shot. That's exactly what I'm talking about with Apple's over-aggressive noise reduction. It looks terrible and distracting. And that's not even a really low light shot. Or look closely at the carpet on the porcupine shot above. It looks like someone did Paint-By-Numbers on it. iPhone cameras did not used to exhibit this effect and I'm very sad they do now.
Tests have shown apple's noise reduction to be the "quietest" out there currently. My sisters have S4's and their photos always look like someone dotted a bunch of crayons to make up an image.
Right, they always were, that's why I'm upset with what I'm seeing now out of the 6/6 Plus camera. I'm saying it looks like they threw up their hands and gave in to the temptation because it's the "easy" way to eliminate grain, and it sucks. I personally would prefer to see the grain, you can always apply NR yourself later but once it's baked into the photo you're stuck with it, you can't back it off. I wish they would at least let you control the amount of NR applied, a slider or something. Bleh.
I'm assuming it has to do with the phone having a 13 MP Sensor, that is locked down to 8 MP so that all the fancy behind the scenes work can go on. With that the NR is upped. A function of the sensor, though an unfortunate one.
Nice pic. But what's the green dot by the tree? Did you have something on the lens?
Ok, thanks. I've heard of the flare thing before, but had never seen an example.
Anyway, very nice pictures, everyone. Impressive camera indeed.
A few from Fort Davis Tx..... Well I can't seem to get images to load from my phone to the forum. For some reason they will not upload. Any ideas???
