iphone 11 pro blurry zoom camera

After the ios 16 update, I noticed on my iphone 11 pro that the 2x cam or the more I zoomed in the photo becomes very blurry. I think this is because of the macro feature. I hope there is a way to toggle on and off the macro in the zoom cameras because it is really frustrating that I do not have a decent zoom photo which is not blurry.


thank you.

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 16

I have an iPhone 11, and after I upgraded to iOS 16.0.3 I couldn’t believe how blurry my pictures became and I unfortunately found out while taking pics at a wedding. This now poor performance by the camera can be clearly recognised in slightly dim areas, inside a room where there is little natural lighting and in the night it’s definitely more visible weather in 1x or a zoom mode.


I am now checking if iOS 16.1 will fix this issue.


By the way it’s the same performance for portrait mode and video. I won’t even bother checking panoramic or slow mo.
