ProRAW Support

When Apple unveiled its iPhone 12 lineup last month, it also announced a new ProRAW format that would be coming to the Pro models, although like many of Apple’s new photography features, it didn’t have it ready out of the gate, simply saying that it would be arriving in a future software update.

Well, it looks like iOS 14.3 will be that update, with the new ProRAW format showing up in the settings for those users who have an iPhone 12 Pro or iPhone 12 Pro Max. It doesn’t look like it will be the default format, but it can be selected by going into the Camera settings in the iOS Settings app and flipping the switch on in from the Formats section, which also describes the format in more detail, noting that it’s a 12-bit Linear DNG file format, and each ProRAW photo can be expected to be about 25MB in size.
