That's not how cameras work though. The raw output of a phone camera would be horribly off-color. It would NOT capture the image you are expecting. So the phone applies a number of filters to try to correct the flaws inherent in a camera with such small optics. You only notice when the external conditions (smoke-filled skies) don't match the assumptions that went into the filter design.

- esperent 6y agoI'm aware of that. And yet, somehow we have many photos of the recent wildfires in California, captured by cameras, so setting a correct whitepoint is clearly possible.
