main camera, AI-powered low-light magic

Can I turn it off? Can I? I just want my photos, the real ones, however bad they are. I don’t want them to be half generated.

Just to be clear, unless you're shooting RAW you never have your "real" photos. Every phone/camera performs massive amounts of post processing, including using ml models.

AI is only a buzzword for something that has been the norm for a while.

I want my photos to be grainy, with natural lens distortion, instead of current trend of pictures being shouty to look good on social media

[–] HandMadeArtisanRobot@lemmy.world 21 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You can shoot RAW on your phone today.

[–] ElectroLisa@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Only with primary lens

I think you need a camera, not a phone

[–] jumping_redditor@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Maybe phones shouldn't have multiple cameras if they aren't actually usable

[–] Railcar8095@lemm.ee 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Maybe you shouldn't buy a phone if you want a "usable" camera.

And you shouldn't buy a camera either as you don't seem to understand those either.

a camera should save the raw data from the sensor to a file along with potentially metadata, there is no reason for it to "enhance" the photo or video, compression only makes sense for posting online or video

[–] Railcar8095@lemm.ee 1 points 2 weeks ago

Tell that you every single digital camera. Very few output RAW by default, many don't even offer that option. This isn't a "phone cameras" issue.

The fact that you think post process is compression says a lot, or that there's no reason to apply post process when 99.9% of the population don't even know what RAW is and won't benefit from it.

Again, you want a proper camera, buy a proper camera. But learn a bit before
