Because HDR makes photos look even more like cartoons. Are you guys colorblind? No one sees the massive differences here?

Can you also share the previous pic from you camera roll ? Just checking if it is HDR ?
Again mine look perfect, no problem with mine I’m beginning to think that you guys don’t know what you’re doing. The second shot that you just posted in this particular thread that I’m replying to looks over exposed and improperly captured. Do you guys not compose your photo before you shoot or just raise your phone and click the shutter? You have to touch the focus you have to use exposure compensation you have to think about the shot before you take it. Anyway, this thread is beginning to waste my time, I’m done.. I will let somebody else reply from now on.Because HDR makes photos look even more like cartoons. Are you guys colorblind? No one sees the massive differences here?
iPhone 12 Pro Max photos colors are awful
Here are two shots from user Google who says they are unedited. You cant see the massive difference in color here? Something is wrong with these cameras.
It has nothing to do with properly exposing the photo, that's the iPhones job and that's why so many use it. Upon further testing, the problem seems to be in the HDR. Look what the sky does as I toggle it off and on. This didnt happen before iOS 14 and needs to be fixed.
It needs to be reported to Apple as a bug to be fixed. No wonder people are showing off photos with terrible looking colors.
I haven’t seen any other than yours and the one other person. Go on Instagram and look at all the 12 pro max photos, they are beautiful. If you think there is an issue, then report it. I’m not going to report it for you because I don’t see a problem. I suggested that you make an appointment and to go to the Apple store and see a rep instead of complaining here. We wish we could help, but complaining about the so called bug on your iPhone on these forums isn’t going to fix anything. And to be honest just because you think there’s a bug, doesn’t mean we have it. you sound a bit angry and I understand that, I do. A new iPhone should work perfectly but there are some that will have flaws. That’s why I always get AppleCare where others don’t to get it fixed if out of warranty. So call Apple. I’m sure they will help.
You do realize that you can report bugs to apple, right? Why should someone else do it for you?
Dude, the tone of your posts are a major turn-off. If you don’t like your camera results, just return the damn thing and get an android or something....geez!
Its not a phone problem, its an iOS 14 problem and if you dont see color shift issues in your photos, youre blind. Does the video I posted look normal to you? It didnt do that before ios 14. Not on iOS 13, 12, 11, 10 etc..It seems be a bug in iOS 14.
I think OP is complaining about the issues with the sky. And your photos suffers also from this thing. Also your photos are not that spectacular and even a mid-range Google pixel 4a can produce better pics. Here are the highlighted examples :
Not that spectacular??? Duh! These are snapshots, just random jpegs that I just took. I raised the iPhone and pressed the shutter just like most people do. They are basic samples only for this thread that aren’t edited or planned. You are a poor judge of character and you probably wouldn’t know a good photo if you saw one based on your assumption of simple jpeg photos. I don’t care what you think. Google pixel lost its main camera engineer and the cameras aren’t as good as they once were. The iPhone 12 Pro Max is the most advanced yet. Of course these photos aren’t spectacular, they are random un processed jpegs that apparently you thought are my best work. Geez, don’t you people know the horizon turns more pale of blue the lower you go because of the atmosphere and light refraction? That’s basic science. Mostly the red and orange portion of the visible spectrum only gets through the atmosphere at that angle. Also there is usually haze, dust, clouds, and moisture at the horizon that scatters sunlight which also contributes to a washed out look in the sky. That’s why sunsets are red-orange. So there’s No software issue here, just ignorance.
Absolutely stunning shots! Love your post shot edits as well! Great composition. ?
Telling other people that they are blind for not seeing what you're seeing is not a good way to win people over. You do realize that colors are very subjective. What you don't like others might love. Report the issue to apple, and move on. Stop berating others.
The photos you have posted, from your 12 Pro Max are stunning. Are the ones that you have posted been post processed through other software or just direct from the phone after they are taken? I am planning on purchasing the iPhone 12 Pro Max from a iPhone 6S+ and really looking forward to the improved camera system in the 12 Pro Max.
