in specs camera described as 12MP but downloaded from iCpoud photos only 3MP, why ?
iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14
Megapixel is a measure of dimension: length by breadth
Megabytes is a measure of the "weight" of a file, not the dimensions of the photo. There is no issue with having a 12 megapixel photo in a 3 megabyte file.
iCloud always contain photos in the best quality (original size)
I downloaded this image from iCloud
so, this is original quality which was made by iPhone = 3Mpx photo
that my question:
why it 3Mpx instead described 12Mpx in spec
If you are sure the icloud photos are bigger than 3Mpx then see
I didn't said about 3 megaByte
I said about actual 3 megaPixel instead 12 megaPixel by spec
i got photo 1536 pixels x 2048 pixels = 3 145 728 pixels = 3 megaPixels
There are instructions in the article above how to download and keep full size copies. Unless you adjusted those settings you will always get a compressed copy.
Thats what I meant by “by default”
Sorry, I totally misread the question. Apologies.
