My argument to people that ask was always that there were things I do (specifically for fast action) that a phone will never be able to do due to physics. This article is just more ammo for me - you can't trust phone manufacturers not to manipulate. Today, Apple, but tomorrow Google, Samsung, etc. Even if you shoot RAW on a camera, there's no guarantee manufacturers won't mess with them somehow in the future.
- azinman2 4y agoI don’t know what you meant by messing with a RAW image. At that point it’s baked, and the only that would change is the algorithms that handle the raw file, but everything this article is referring to is already done. Raw camera sensors in phones are terrible and extremely noisy because there are few photons actually making it inside - what’s largely improved over time is the processing of these files. Every company that ships a phone post processes the images otherwise they’d be unusable. I also guarantee that while this make quite things where one manufacturer is worse than another in a specific situation, there will be situations where the opposite is true as well. I wouldn’t call this “manipulation” however. It suggests some nefarious deed when instead it’s just about balancing color, skin tone, denoising, etc.
