iPhone 14 Pro Max everyday camera

The improvement of the iPhone 14's camera performance seems to have changed my photography life a bit.


In everyday life, most of the cases do not carry a camera, so even at the moment when I did not take a picture, I trusted the iPhone 14 Pro Max and took a picture.


As a result, there are more daily photos than in the past.

The photos below are daily photos taken over a period of less than a month.

Most of the photos were taken with Apple ProRaw and converted to jpg with Lightroom.

iPhone 14 Pro Max Last of Fall

Even when I see fallen leaves falling under my feet, I take pictures of things I would otherwise have missed.

iPhone 14 Pro Max Early Christmas

In a low-light environment such as at night, if it was my previous iPhone XS MAX, I would not have attempted to take a picture, but I do not hesitate to take out my iPhone and take a picture.

Even in environments like the dark basement like the one pictured above, you can capture satisfying photos with plenty of detail.

Of course, recent mirrorless cameras will show better image quality in low light, but being able to take night photos like this on a smartphone itself is a case where the area where I can take everyday photos has greatly expanded for me, so I have a lot of photography life. 

I can say that it has changed.

iPhone 14 Pro Max Building in the Palace

In addition, the wide-angle camera of the iPhone 14 Pro Max can capture a wider range when capturing buildings, so it is often used as a secondary camera when the main camera does not have a wide-angle lens.

Apple ProRaw's calibration latitude has been quite satisfactory so far.

iPhone 14 Pro Max Last Leaf of Autumn

It's a pity that Apple ProRaw can't be used, but I use portrait mode often because it can express depth of field and out-of-focusing in photos. When shooting in portrait mode, photos are taken in JPG or HEIC format only.

I think that this out-of-focusing expression of software has now reached a very natural level.

In order to take pictures in everyday life, there are often cases where the moment passes between taking the camera out of the camera case.
At that time, the iPhone, which has improved the performance of photos, seems to play a role as a camera in the hand that does not miss the moment.

Hanbok(Korean traditional clothes) at Gyeongbokgung Palace

Gyeongbokgung Palace is a representative palace site in Seoul. It is also the best place to take pictures wearing hanbok (traditional Korean clothing). On a sunny day, I took pictures with my daughter's friends and family at Gyeongbokgung wearing hanbok. Since they are still minors, their faces are mosaic-processed to protect their portrait rights. Gyeongbokgung Palace is one of the palaces of the Joseon Dynasty and the main palace (law palace) of the Joseon Dynasty, located at 161 Sajik-ro (Sejong-ro), Jongno-gu, Seoul. It has been designated as Historic Site No. 117. It is the first palace built during the Joseon Dynasty when King Taejo founded Joseon and moved the capital to Hanyang. It was destroyed during the Japanese invasion of Korea in 1592 and neglected for 275 years before being rebuilt by Heungseon Daewongun in the 19th century. At the time, it was reborn as a huge building with about 7,000 rooms, but through the end of the Joseon Dynasty and the Japanese colonial period...
