Apple has made a few key refinements to the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max that are very photographer-friendly. These changes not only improve the camera’s output, but also provide a better experience when taking pictures.
In this article, I will first review the key settings that maximize the iPhone’s imaging capabilities, and then show you the most efficient way to hold the camera and take pictures.
Key Settings
Our fine-tuning begins in the Settings app. Go to Settings > Camera. I’m going to focus on the choices for still photography. But in the screenshots, you will see my other selections as well.
Formats
For Camera Capture, choose High Efficiency, which is a superior format to Jpeg. There was a time when HEIF files weren’t as widely recognized by editing apps, but those days are gone. High Efficiency provides better quality in more compact file sizes.
