As Sandofsky writes, \u201cevery camera is opinionated, and this pre-dates modern cameras which use AI and computational photography to \u2018fix\u2019 your photos for you.\u201d <\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Apple Log Explained in English\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XJ2jbOaKEVw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Different cameras can capture the same scene at the same time in very different ways. Digital cameras convert an analog signal, photons, into digital data, which is then, through complex image processing algorithms, turned into an image. For certain file types, like JPEGs, many of the decisions a camera makes are set in stone and can\u2019t be tweaked later, at least not while preserving the file\u2019s integrity. Things like white balance, tonal curves, and color tints are set by the camera, often to make an image look the way most people want it to. This is not always the most accurate, by the way. Cameras often oversaturate certain \u201cmemory colors,\u201d such as blue skies and green foliage. <\/p>\n<p>When working with RAW image files, the photographer retains control over key processing decisions and can tinker and experiment with the files to their heart\u2019s content. Art is subjective, after all, and not everyone wants their photos to look&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/petapixel.com\/2026\/03\/05\/iphone-video-camera-app-kino-adds-apple-log-2-support\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>iPhone Video Camera App Kino Adds Apple Log 2 Support https:\/\/petapixel.com\/2026\/03\/05\/iphone-video-camera-app-kino-adds-apple-log-2-support\/ Publish Date: 2026-03-05 17:36:00&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":220398,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/petapixel.com\/assets\/uploads\/2026\/03\/kino-1-4-featured.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[120],"tags":[80],"class_list":["post-220397","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-iphone","tag-iphone-17"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220397"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=220397"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220397\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":220399,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220397\/revisions\/220399"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/220398"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=220397"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=220397"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=220397"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
