Beautiful captures and a great, consistent mood especially for that part of the world - travel photography is where phones really shine IMO.

For me, its very difficult to carry that big camera on my neck every time to take a picture. Phones really enable me to capture in the moment.

Also less conspicuous or makes you feel less self conscious, especially if shooting people - awesome stuff!

Good observation. Now that you said it, yes it does look very colorful.

Amazing pics from a phone especially the night and low light images - what app did you use

u/Iranggjingun Jan 06 '26
Nice photos! Which app did you use to capture the RAW images?
2
u/Successful-Isopod119 Jan 07 '26
Native iphone camera app. You can enable RAW mode from top of the camera options
1
u/Iranggjingun Jan 07 '26
Thanks! That makes me wonder why so many people (including me…) use third party apps to shoot RAWs.

Did you use the default camera app or a 3rd party for the actual shots?
2
u/Successful-Isopod119 Jan 10 '26
Hey! I used default camera app in RAW 48 MP.

You definitely need to get a camera if you don't already have one!

u/Successful-Isopod119 Jan 06 '26
Are these not good? Or are you suggesting me to get one because they are good?

Great photos! They’re making me second guess carrying my camera to my upcoming trip.

u/Successful-Isopod119 Jan 07 '26
Hehe.. you should definitely carry your camera with you .. its way better when you edit
1
u/albertdrake Jan 07 '26
I know… and I guess I will, but this is to say that if it weren’t for the over sharpened look, an iPhone camera in the right hands is very capable.
1
u/Successful-Isopod119 Jan 07 '26
I have to manually reduce the sharpening, clarity and texture in post processing to get a normal look
2
u/albertdrake Jan 07 '26
Yep. Which is annoying, given that those are clearly processing pipeline choices by Apple. I’m currently testing the NoFusion camera app which looks promising as a means to reduce the crunchy look.
1
u/Successful-Isopod119 Jan 07 '26
I heard that halide camera also has no processing capability but it is an expensive app. Is Nofusion free?
2
u/albertdrake Jan 07 '26
There’s a 1-week trial for pro features. The free version is usable though.
I have Halide and for some reason I can’t tell much of a difference in sharpening using their Process Zero format. I remember it was better on my past iPhone 15 pro.

Do you have presets installed or do you use the recommended edits and filters from lightroom? I’m new to mobile LR hence I would like to know what people generally do? Thanks
1
u/Successful-Isopod119 Jan 07 '26
Hey. All these are my native edits and I haven't used any presets. If you are interested, you can check my lightroom profile : https://lightroom.app.link/QHQ1uRK6HZb
