Sorry, I do not have an iPhone. How easy is the 'RAW' feature to find?

I understand what you mean about most users do not need such a feature. But while supporting computers I am surprise how many features of programs users do not know exist not just because they do not use them but also how hard it is to get at some features.

Personally, I seen too many programs where you need to know to turn OFF certain functions before you can enable some other feature. The users often never see what they needed because it is so hard to enable that feature without know they need to turn something else OFF.

To find the RAW feature you need to do two things:

Go to Settings -> Camera -> toggle Apple ProRAW on

Then in the Camera app there will be a "RAW" button that you can tap on to enable RAW capture

Third party camera apps like Halide (https://halide.cam) focus on just using the RAW capabilities by default

+1 for Halide, which I didn't know about. Apple doesn't give non-Pro 13s access to RAW images (that I know of), but Halide does out of the box. The camera AI was driving me crazy on my 13mini; now I have a solution. Are there other similar apps of similar quality? In particular, I'd love an excellent BW app which is (at least relatively) AI-free.

The iPhone RAW mode still does quite heavy processing though.

Here’s a comparison I just made between the iPhone camera’s RAW and default modes, and Halide: https://i.ibb.co/XFMJVjz/9-DD734-F7-CA00-4-E53-85-C7-283315-...
