Raw vs. JPG for Mobile Phone Photography

It's well established that RAW format gives you higher quality and more flexibility in DSLR photography, but is it useful for mobile phone cameras? I investigate that in a new blog post: http://activesole.blogspot.com/2015/06/lg-g4-raw-vs-jpg-mobile-phone-photography.html

  • Great post! I have a NEX5R, but that Android L allows RAW had me curious. (It's not just the G4-it's a software option in any fully updated Android phone, fwiw.)

  • +Charles Gaines I read that Android 5.0 enabled RAW, the LG has 5.1, haven't heard of another specific model shooting RAW yet, in some cases no doubt due to manufacturer/carrier support/rollout of OS for certain phone models. I found out the hard way with my original Droid that OS advancement/support is worthless without carrier rollout.

  • Fairly certain the Nexus 6 and probably the '14 Moto X; Sony has said they will think about turning it on.
