![Long exposure shot on iPhone 14 Pro [ No Edits ]](https://preview.redd.it/reoo2q4tqlqg1.jpeg?auto=webp&s=32b408a38996129e2396b6e4c9bce59cf9c986eb)




Quick comparison between Bayer RAW (Iris Pro) and ProRAW (Apple Camera).
Before jumping to conclusions:
• Exposure and tone may not be perfectly identical
• Same Lightroom preset applied on both (Dark Drama)
• No manual color tweaking beyond the preset
What to look at instead:
• Highlight roll-off in clouds (top area)
• Color depth and gradients in the sky
• Shadow detail in trees/buildings
The goal isn’t to say one is “bad”, but to show how different RAW pipelines respond to the same edit.
