16:9 picture format not able to Save to File as DNG

albertfromkl,

Glad to hear you were able to get to the bottom of the issue.

Regarding reporting changes or suggestions to Apple, the best way to do so is via the Feedback link:

Take care.

I have the exact same problem on my new iPhone 13 Pro Max (iOS 15.0.2).

I set it up as new when I got it so it cannot be caused by restore. If it is of any relevance here are my Photos and Camera settings:

• Settings -> Photos -> Transfer To Mac or PC is set to Keep Originals
• Settings -> Camera -> Formats -> Camera Capture is set to Most Compatible
• Settings -> Camera -> Apple ProRAW is set to Enabled

I have also tried setting Options -> All Photos Data to Enabled after selecting a picture to export / copy.

It doesn't matter whether I try to copy it to Files (on the phone) or to FE File Explorer Pro remote destination (PC network share) -- I always end up with a JPEG instead of a DNG file.

This is true for any aspect ratio other than 4:3 -- both 1:1 (Square) and 16:9 result in a JPEG file every single time.

Hi albertfromkl,

To make sure we're on the same page, you're able to take a photo with your iPhone, export it in the ProRAW format and it exports properly.

However, if you take the same steps but in a 16:9 format, it doesn't export as ProRAW but rather a JPG, is that correct?

You can see details about exporting photos and working with ProRAW in the following resource:
