Issue with iPhone 15 Pro Camera – Part of Foot Missing in Photo

If this is in low light, I think the phone takes multiple images and merges them. Since your foot was moving it did not know what to do.

The only thing to do is make sure there is enough light when taking images of moving objects.

Keith Barkley is correct. Multiple images have been blended into one final image. The front foot was moving, resulting in motion artifacts and loss of detail because of dark subject and noise in shadows.

Not that I know of, that is the problem with using a phone that makes all these decisions for you, and a DSLR/ILC, which gives you full control.

You *might* be able to turn this feature off, but you would have ended up with pretty much the same thing - the foot would be a blur - just a more complete blur, if you get my drift.

This is not unique for Apple, Samsung's would actually replace a picture of the moon with one that "looked better" - i.e., properly exposed - that it had filed away.

Keith is correct. Shooting Apple ProRAW might help a little. There are third party apps that turn off the image blending as I recall. There may be a charge for the app.

Also I wouldn't worry about it too much. If the image is strong, no one will care about your foot. (Unless you post to flicker : Great Photographers on the Internet

If you go to this page - and it is really funny if you know anything about photography - the first image is Capra's famous D-Day image. It was grainy, and blurry and improperly processed, but that almost improves it

I have heard good things about Halide.

I use it frequently. There may be multiple versions, but I have an annual subscription for it.
