I didn't know about background compression. And I think I could never have noticed it until I saw your video. That's dope. Thanks!

You are welcome! Thanks for watching!

[@nastyline9693]

Sorry could you elaborate, I watched it over and over but didnt quite get it how to do background compression

[@alexklemme]

@@TheDroneCreativeHi! Sorry, but i didn‘t get it how background compression works or how you made these shots. Can you explain it to me, too? Thanks.

[@JIMMYBE2]

I have the same. I don’t know how to use this background compression.. can someone explain it please? 😅

any recommendations for macro lenses and macro settings for super up close photos of trichomes on plants?

Hello, I have been using these settings for some time and I have noticed that the quality of the pictures, especially when I look into a picture, zoom in, is blurry. Any idea why and what I could do about it?

[@topeakanmaku]

Same thing as mine

[@seriousgmarino4582]

Every photo will be a little different. I recommend watching other tutorials. The settings might work really well for him but he’s in Ireland. Depending on where you’re at in the world, there’s different weather, color shades, skin tones, which all affect how your settings should be. On a bright sunny day your settings will have to be adjusted as opposed to a cloudy one

[@dragomirionur]

@@seriousgmarino4582yea, and after 8months of using the phone everyday, 1 time per day I charge it with eco mode always on cause it drains too fast… this is the thing that I hate, the worst battery ever, I had 11 pro max and it wasn’t like this

Love this video so much. I'm torn between getting the iPhone 15 or the DJI pocket 3. Watched the pocket 3 photography video and I want to know if I can get good results from editing without Lightroom without Luminary Neo. I wish I could get my hands on one pocket 3 raw photo to play with in Lightroom to see if it works for me.

[@vanessabarrett2935]

Does anyone recommend having the protector case over the lenses or removing it for better quality?

[@jimtownsend1747]

The version of LR you are using does not match my free version, I cannot get anything pass when you begin masking, plus pro raw

I’m guessing he forgot to tell that the settings he uses requires payments… But the app is free………

Hello, I have an iPhone 15 plus, do you think it is better to take photos in 48 mp heif or 12 mp raw? on the iphone 15 plus I can't take photos in 48 mp raw, thank you

[@TheDroneCreative]

Hey! Personally I would use 12MP RAW to get the benefits of capturing RAW photos. You will more data within the photo giving you much more flexibility when editing them.

[@TiltedJuanito]

ok thank you very much@@TheDroneCreative

[@jim814]

You have Great information here. Are these settings for drone photography only, or are they settings for everyday photos and videos?

[@ReflectionTool637]

I don't know a lot about cameras, but I know enough to know that all of these settings are good starting points for pros. Many of them are not useful for everyday users though. Especially preserve settings - pro photographers will change things and think about things during a shoot, but most of us just want things to be "normal" and so will not be thinking through all these settings each time we go to use our phone as a camera. I use HEIF max, HDR on and vivid filter to try to get the best pics (on average) - I am just a wanderer and so my pics are of cities and landscapes mostly. Greetings from Auckland!

[@suzanamaria4031]

Thank you for a very detailed video. I have already saved to go back for reference.

[@TheDroneCreative]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!

[@vllssv]

do you use the 15 Pro Max with the Osmo Mobile 6 or a gimbal? Does it feel too heavy on the gimbal.

Unfortunately not. You can get a lens hood attachment, but for me personally I find this makes the phone too bulky.

Hey Do you keep True Tone turned on in display settings or does that affect the editing process as colours will change??

[@justbeingrenae2995]

?? How do you use the "telecamera"???

[@mikepound9808]

New IP 15Pro user here. confused about the Preserve Settings controls. Why would I want to preserve settings like Exposure Adjustment, Night Mode, Portrait Zoom, etc. when they probably change from shot to shot, day to day, light to light, etc.?

[@TheDroneCreative]

Great question! I find this useful because if you have changed mode from photo to video, and adjusted to exposure but then get a phone call. By default, when you end the call and re-open the app everything will have reset. So by preserving them settings you won't need to configure everything again.

[@qasimdmc]

They are preserved for that shot only depending on the light situations

Pro raw is nice if you need to upload them 😂 I just use s24 ultra for photos and iPhone I use for gaming and video. Is ok to have some camera but is impossible iPhone to fight with S 24 ultra . Make the same photo with both phones and after just zoom and you will understand what I’m talking about. 😊
