In this video, I take a somewhat controlled look at the differences between Apple ProRaw and a traditional raw image shot on an iPhone from both the Halide app and Lightroom Mobile, and also include the jpeg file for good measure.
I run through the set up I used for gathering these images, and then after AirDropping them to my Mac, load up Adobe Bridge for a closer look.
In particular, I look at how shadow detail compares between images, then sharpening, and then finish with colour detail.
The images have been shot using iOS 14.3 Public Beta 3, and I used the latest available apps for Halide and Lightroom at the time.
Bear in mind, this is still beta software, so changes may still come from ProRaw.

Halide has just been updated to version 2.1 and now supports ProRAW! The developers have put out an incredibly detailed blog post that's well worth checking out if this sort of thing interests you - blog.halide.cam/understanding-proraw-4eed556d4c54
One of the best videos on ProRAW I’ve seen yet! Thanks!
Great in depth comparison, subbed
FYI you might have to retest since Halide mark ii just incorporated Apple ProRaw into it's app with full controls called ProRaw+
It looks like a great update, here is a super in depth talk about it from Halide themselves thats really interesting - blog.halide.cam/understanding-proraw-4eed556d4c54
I appreciate the detailed analysis. Very helpful.
Nice work Josh! Great to see you doing these tutes. Cheers Paul
Pro RAW my reason for upgrading to a 12 Pro Max.
I am so exicited to try it, as a Hobby photographer.
Great Content, keep it up!
A really very good review. Many thanks.
Thank you. Very informative video!
I highly appreciate you taking the efforts in putting up a comparison of these famous apps.. helped me tremendously! Thanks a lot!!
My pleasure 😊
Amazing comparison
Ive noticed this too while playing around with ProRAW. Its way cleaner with better colors than Halide and LR and a TON better than the JPEG/HEIC files.
Congratulations for your videos, hope you hit 1K subscribers before the end of the year
Thanks Agusto, 1k by the end of the year would be great!
Awesome review! Thanks for the insights on this exciting new format!
PS: be careful with GPS metadata when sharing pictures 😉
Pro Raw is certainly a nice feature to have. That said, it seems very clear that there is targeted pre-processing such as luminance noise reduction going in in the shadow areas of the APR files. Even without this, they would still be cleaner that the native RAW files, but be aware that you are looking at an image that has already be processed a little in the Apple Pro Raw pipeline.
If we could only find a way to disable ALL submerged denoising, rather live with some noise than watercolour photos 😤 Also I wonder, why is Apple so reluctant on letting users have a button shortcut to open camera (like 2 clicks on power button for most androids). Maybe we must go back to jailbreaking to create our ultimate camera iphone? 🤔
@@ilcomendante we At AMVR do all this Pure raw quality stuff, we are also developing true RAW DNG video for phones 😀 th-cam.com/channels/j_A8iLGLdOR8UZB_1r_V5w.html
Great video. Thanks
Great Josh. But I think Pro Raw benefit is in High ISO situation, or in extreme dynamic range situations. You should test that.
Nice videooo man super good job
thx a lot for your video !! great information before buying it ! i m looking for landscape photo on tripode in day sunset and night before buying. thx again
Great Video.
Leaves me still thinking if I should upgrade my 11 pro max ? Or not. Will the Hallide App be a better choice Or go for 12 Pro Max ?
Are there any other major upgrades which should force me or any of us to go for an upgrade???
Any thoughts or advise is welcome.
👍🏻🇨🇦👍🏻
It’s not bad. Does make a slight difference and I mean slight. For space, I decided just to stick with the jpeg option as they look fantastic anyway for phone images.
Great job.
Great review!!!
I posted this on a different review so here it goes. Halide mentions on their site that they will be tapping into ProRaw data from the iPhone. Wondering if they are waiting for 14.3 to come out of beta for this to happen. It would be awesome. Cheers.
Halide released an update today that lets you shoot in ProRAW!
@@iamjoshstunell Sweet! Thanks for the heads up!
Dang all of a sudden my "128gb is more than enough" iPhone isn't more than enough anymore.
Very exhaustive research Josh. Question: Was the "Smart HDR" selected in the Camera for all the shots? My local tests with it 'off' produced better exposures, overall and there's some question if the Smart HDR is adding some AI artifacts. Thanks for your dedicated research!
Great video. The conclusion is that there is in fact a benefit in using ProRaw despite the large file sizes. 128 GB seems a little now.
Hi Josh, slightly unrelated and a basic question. Is Halide worth the price in your opinion. It’s much costlier than the others. Thanks!
great vid
This was a great video! I can't wait for the full iOS 14.3 update so I can make my own Apple ProRAW video and show my audience the power of ProRAW!
So if Apple is creating an API for third parties to use Pro Raw could that potentially unlock the feature for the Iphone 12 and mini?
interesting thank you
_The halide is bleeding on the edges of the collar bars versus the Chris clean proRaw, plus I noticed some color noise on the black_
Apple ProRaw is just 👌🏽
Why do people use Halide? It seems overly expensive to me, especially on an older device. Plus I don’t get to tap to focus while keeping other settings constant in manual mode
I wonder if it's possible for the likes of Halide to updated their software to bring similar performance to other phones that do not support ProRAW?
cool!
Yes but we can’t hard select the lens with ios camera app :(
What I would like to see is Apple ProRaw compared to the Nokia 9 Raw shots
Thumps up for the dollarydoos
Could the difference in baseline sharpness be due to Apple's image processing pipeline? I'm guessing that combining 12 images into 1 allows them to get higher sharpness than a single RAW photo from the sensor could ever manage.
No, it's just oversharpening everything. I noticed it with the very first test image I took with my iPhone 12 Pro. I just so happened to take a picture with text, and you can actually see it apply the sharpness because you get a split second to view the unsharpened picture before it applies it. With text it is especially bad, and I really wish there was a way to turn it off. It's terrible. The camera is great, the sharpening done afterwards.... not so much.
Great review, thanks. Just for my tastes I wish the music was a little softer, it got distracting for me at points. Overall though, good job!
Thanks for the comment! I'll fine tune the background sound moving forward :)
@@iamjoshstunell I appreciate the great review. I’m confused about raw mode. I think I have all the settings correct and an image is indeed tagged with the RAW label...but no matter how I try to inspect it I don’t see large file sizes. They always come out 1.5 Mb even if I airdrop an unedited image on my Mac. Using any file inspector app just sees it as a jpg, not a 25Mb raw image. Can you help?
Now how does it compare with a Full Frame RAW from a A7iii/Z6/D750/R6 etc?
I think a full frame sensor will generally always be better. Larger sensor generally leads to less noise in the image. Apple is just using software to produce a cleaner image, given the limitations of the camera sensor inside the phone.
What remote is that you are using to trigger the iPhone?
This is the remote that I got with the Parrot Teleprompter. There are many options for bluetooth remotes, or you can even plug in your wired earpods and press the volume up button to trigger the shutter too!
Nice comparison. Thanks. How would you evaluate ProRaw implementation changes between various beta versions?
I've used Beta 2 and Beta 3. In my previous video filmed using beta 2, ProRAW seemed to be a bit aggressive in the noise reduction on some hair, but in beta 3 I haven't seen that yet. I don't know if anything was changed in settings between the beta's though, or if that first video with the hair was just an anomaly.
Hope that the pro 3rd party apps will integrate apple pro raw (if its possible) like halide and moment and the others
Halide released an update today that lets you shoot in ProRAW!
we used Adobe Photoshop to make our image quality like DSLR CAMERA,So with the help of Apple ProRAW can we get same image quality like DSLR CAMERA or not?
You definitely have more control over the image in editing compared to a typical jpeg file, but the larger sensor of the DSLR camera will generally be better for noise reduction, and generally have much better resolution too.
why is my iPhone 12 Pro Max has no Pro Raw function button?
Comes in iOS 14.3 update, probably this coming week.
@@TheKimNeeper thanks
😍

Just nitpicking here, but Heif isn’t Jpeg. They’re different formats.
Any idea why Pro Raw is calling it an iPhone 13 ?? At the top of the screen in Lightroom.
it's actually the 13th iphone lineup!! here is the lineup:
1st gen(2g,3g),
2nd gen(3gs),
3rd gen(4),
4th gen (4s),
5th gen(5,5c),
6th gen(5s),
7th gen (6),
8th gen(6s,SE),
9th gen(7),
10th gen(8,x),
11th gen(xs,xr),
12th gen(11,se2),
13th gen(12).
as for the ,4 after the 13 is the fourth phone on the line!!
12 mini is 13,1
12 is 13,2
12 pro is 13,3
12 pro max is 13,4
Thanks for this. It's what I was hoping for as I have a 12 Pro on its way!. On another note, I don't make YT videos myself but wondered why everyone puts that awful music over the whole thing?
because they can
Pro raw still does that ugly over sharpening 🤦🏻♂️
Wait for iphone 13 😂
Shout out to the Simpsons writers for the “dollarydoo”
I see a lots of videos of cameras and the benefit of the raw file but, it's the first time understanding the difference on sensor size software treatment, software to edit and what to do whit the extra info of raw files and what to cannot do whit jpeg. Files and the power you have in just 8mm² camera and who the big brands are stealing money . Now I got more info them a pro cameras . Now I understand the pro cameras it toke me at list 9 videos good for apple and his products. Aahhh nokia and his dream to Steal for ever 😂😂😂😂 like the printers and unicorn blood 😂😂😂 thank you apple
