This sits towards the 'pro' end of the photo format spectrum, because these files are almost completely unprocessed.
You've probably already heard of the raw photo format. While it can seem unnecessarily complicated, having choices with image formats can be very helpful, in the same way that it's nice to choose between driving an automatic or manual car. To explain why you might sometimes want to use Apple ProRaw, it's helpful to answer the broader question – why do we have different photography formats? But for most people, Apple ProRaw is best saved for saved for certain situations – for example, at night or in contrasty situations with bright sunlight and dark shadows. When this is turned off, your iPhone will default to the format in your 'camera capture' settings (either HEIF or JPEG).Īlso, if you want to have ProRaw turned on all the time, you'll need to do that in your preserved settings (Settings > Camera > Preserve Settings). For a start, to take a ProRaw photo you'll need to tap the RAW icon (which is crossed out by default) in the camera app. To find that option, go to Settings > Camera > Formats and turn on the Apple ProRaw option (like in the image above).Ī word of warning: ProRaw images are significantly larger than standard compressed files like HEIC/JPEG (over ten times larger), so you're unlikely to want to use the new format all the time.įortunately, turning on ProRaw using the method above doesn't leave it on permanently. All done? You should now have the option to turn on Apple ProRaw in your camera settings.
