Speaking of their raw formats. What's up with the iphone HEIC photo format? I only convert all HEIC to JPEG on Macbook and have no idea what advantage this format can offer me.


I use it on my Android phone to use less storage space. From what I remember of initial testing, the pictures were half the size.


HEIC isn't anything close to RAW. It's "normal" processed photos but with different encoding format.


Yeah, what the heic?
