It’s Chicago, just off Navy Pier. I took them from a sailboat on Lake Michigan Friday night.
I guessed right!
I thought that was the Sears, er, Willis Tower!
(Who is Willis anyhow?)
I don’t mean to be critical, but that’s the sort of photo that should not look like that. The sky is so blown out that it’s hard to tell where the building ends and the sky begins.
Probably more the result of the light colored stratus clouds which are difficult to meter for.
I reckon it’s an excellent image of great graphic quality. It’d look nice printed large and hung on a wall.

Thank you for your post.
Could you please tell me your setting for the milky way photo?
Good morning…the Milky Way photo was shot on Apple ProRAW using night mode. I was in a dark location and I used my mini tripod and iPhone bracket for the 30” exposure. The RAW photo looked dark, I had to adjust the exposure in Lightroom mobile to bring out the winter Milky Way. I added two screen shots from Lightroom showing the before and after. 30” really isn’t a long time to expose, I hope the iPhone 13 gives us up to 2 minutes at least. But this was just a regular night mode shot for 30” in ProRAW mode.
Ehehe thank you… I made some Milky Way photos with reflex … yes 30 seconds it is a good time, you used the tripod to get the 30 second time, right?
Did you use Lightroom app to shoot the Pro raw ?
I think that 2 minutes is a too long time to shoot a picture to the night sky because the heart rotation would turn the stars into stripes
I have an iPhone 12 Pro. It takes amazing pictures in light and even more impressive in low light. I have to say though, my sister came over with her husband to hang out and she had her normal iPhone 12. I took at least 30 shots overall (15 each) back to back and there is literally no difference. I really question if the LiDar sensor does anything other than be used as a guestimator ruling device. My 2c.
Well the cameras / sensor I think is the same. The LIDAR sensor helps the iPhone focus on low light and really helps map out a subject in portrait mode. Use portrait mode on both and you’ll see what I’m talking about. Especially if you take a portrait of a soda straw. I don’t know how far away the LIDAR sensor works, but I like what it does. I have both the 12 pro and 12 pro max and both iPhones are fantastic. I’m also a photographer which helps with getting better shots. The cameras that you tested are going to focus well without LIDAR but LIDAR does a lot of good in many situations. Some YouTube videos will help to explain the LIDAR, hope this helps..

Been going out for the past few days, now that the sun is finally coming out again in the Netherlands (albeit barely). Friggin' love this camera. Completely untouched photos, apart from using the 'auto enhance' option on some of them.

Particularly impressed with the last one. Incredible how close I could get for this shot, without this beauty flying away!
