While a DSLR and similar devices have a dynamic range of something like 14 and more bits at ISO 100, where you lose a whole lot when compressing to 8 bits of a JPG, raws from smartphones contain next to no additional information. Actually the JPG is usually better because of how well tuned the post processing is. Giving me better control over white balance while taking the picture is the only thing that is really missing.
Yeah I don't really see a use case for raw on phones. It's gonna look like a noise filled mess. Maybe astro photography?
I just really hate the noise reduction in JPEGs on Pixel Phones. You can't "crop and zoom" at all! It looks like some weird painting style.
IPhone does it right by adding all of the AI processing to RAW files as data, so you can crop and edit a raw file and then apply the same AI processing it would have had it you had used JPEG mode.
Huh, how to add that to raw files? Interesting.
"How" like how to enable it? I don't know.
"How" like how does it work? It adds layers to the raw data.
