Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

Exposure

Still photo and video of same scene results in beautiful video exposure and darker still exposure. This question was asked earlier and no meaningful answer was given. I don’t want to have to adjust exposure every time I use the camera

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14

Hi bidD,

welcome to the Apple Community, where some of us do our best to help each other troubleshoot.


Sorry I'm no expert. Apologies if the ideas below are too simplistic for your level of expertise.


Would it help to "play" with iPhone's camera settings (advanced settings are on by default)

to see if a different setting (off) helps at all?


Change advanced camera settings on iPhone

Adjust HDR camera settings on iPhone

https://support.apple.com/en-au/guide/iphone/iph2cafe2ebc/ios


Save camera settings on iPhone

(ie: so they’re not reset when you next open Camera.)

  • NB: Exposure Adjustment: Save the exposure control setting (on iPhone 11 and later).

Hope there's something helpful here :-)
