Does low power mode affect camera quality?

Are images and videos taken whilst the phone is in low power mode at a reduced quality to normal? I filmed some videos at a concert and I think I had low power mode on…

Why is iPhone 13 Pro Max camera quality trash hi I just upgraded to the iPhone 13 Pro Max from the iPhone X and the photo quality is terrible. My husband has the iPhone 11 Pro and it takes far superior photos. I’ve tested in lower light and it blacks out half the photo and while I’m going to take a photo, it looks like there are strobe lights (even though it’s not on the strobe lights).

iPhone 16 Pro Max taking awful pictures Hi, I recently bought the iPhone 16 Pro Max in the 8th December. I’m currently on IOS 18.2 and today when trying to take some pictures of a TV my iPhone when viewing it it’s really bad quality. Tried to have a play with the camera settings but nothings worked. This is on all zoom settings and I’ve also cleaned the lens and removed my case in case that was impacting it. Also night mode is off and there’s no filters. i’ve attached the images of the quality and my camera settings

Iphone pro max action mode on 0.5x low quality When recording a video on action mode, on 0.5x, it’s like recording on 480p and even worse but when I change to 1x or higher, all factores the same, it gets better as I expect from iphone’s camera. Could it be manufacturing issue or a bug?

The camera should capture pictures and video at the same quality whether it is on low power mode or not.

As far as I know, void_ranger9 is correct. It also seems like a very easy thing to test. Film something using low power mode and immediately, in the same spot, film again.
