Can the iPhone 5 take full screen sized photos?

Guys, I also hope Apple can set to 16:9 for us in next firmwear, but why not just use Panorama feature at the moment, it can take wider photo for you... sorry for the stupid solution, but its solve my problem.

Thx & Regards

why apple not answer?

Try this app. I've used it for a year or so and it takes full screen pics. It doesnt offer a ton of advanced functionality but it works. It also allows users to take photos by tapping anywhere on the screen (which was my original reason for downloading). Enjoy

thanks for the tip

Hey Randall. If you take a picture in landscape, does it actually come out in a 16:9 format when transferred to your computer or, like on the standard camera app, is it still a square, 4:3 shaped picture?

They will remain 16:9.

few of camera apps can choose shooting size 16:9 / 3:2/ 4:3 / 1:1

I have just taken a photo both in portrait and landscape,although you get a slightly bigger photo in landscape (obviously) I get full screen photos in both.I am on 7.1 software .I hope an upgrade to the new 7.1 software helps,let me know.................Dave.

Photos taken with my DSLR and synced with iTunes fill the screen.

Download snapchat, take a photo and click the save icon, it gives you a full screen photo, and you don't have to send it to anyone and no one will see it. Just save it to your gallery by pushing the icon that looks like an arrow pointing to a horizontal line. And this proves that the iphone can take a full screen photo without zooming, so the sensor or ratios have nothing to do with it.

You can edit the picture and change the aspect ratio to 16:9. Unfortunately when you view the picture outside the iphone you still see 4:3. So the cropping is just a way of viewing a picture WITH an iphone only. In fact you can always revert to the 4:3 ratio at any time. Very annoying that I cannot have a permanent change of the aspect ratio without going to an outside program

I use 7.1 too. But aspect ratio is till 4:3

Why take photos at 16:9 landscape format? The main reason is that they look better because your eyes see more to the side than up or down and the brain recognises the format as more natural. That's why people who really knew what they were doing came up with cinemascope for movies. Videos are 16:9 so why not photos? Secondly, televisions are a great way to look at photos and most are at that format. Most cameras will now take photos at 16:9. Third, most photos are stored on computers and most of those are at that format. IPhones are Apple who also make computers most of which are at that format. SO WHY DOES THE IPHONE NOT TAKE AT 16:9??? It can, but only through Scout Camera by Crush Apps

Someone smarter than Apple again.
