My iPhone 12 Pro's camera is not focusing properly. It doesn't focus when it is around 8-10 cm away from the object for a close up shot. I will need to move it further away to focus then go back in for the shot.
iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 14
Well, I had a nice visit at the Apple Genius Bar today. My iPhone 12 Pro Max’s camera could not focus on fine print at close range - like it had no macro field of focus at all. My Apple Genius ran a diagnostic on my iPhone & that came back with a recommendation to do a FORCE RESTART of the iPhone:
Press & release the volume up button, then press & release the volume down button, then press & hold the power button until the apple logo appears.
Like magic, my iPhone now focuses in closeup macro mode perfectly.
I‘m still hoping that it‘s only a software bug in the communication between LiDAR and camera.
But if it‘s not fixed soon, Amazon will get the iPhone back.
That’s exactly what I’m getting. Awful!
For reference after turning OFF SETTINGS, as shown above.
Which model is yours ? Pro or Pro Max? Thanks
I tried that - doesn’t work
Same
Same here. 12 pro max. Just noticed it. Ehhhh
Yeah my Pixel 4 xl does a superb job on very close shots iPhone 12 pro Max just can’t compete.
Same here :( I just noticed. For me taking a close up photos is very important. I don’t know what to do :(
This is happening with my 11 pro Max 🙄 ugh
That’s silly :(
Aside from this issue because I am also having the autofocus issue, your cookie decoration is beautiful! 💖
Thank you :D
Same issue. I have noticed this is the worst during video or FaceTime. The iPhone 12 FaceTime focus is a mess. I have to use my iPad
Unfortunately this doesn’t cure the FaceTime focusing issue on the new 12’s. FaceTime video is a joke trying to focus
