Pictures of the camera shows a white background

I have the iPhone 6 s and wondering why my photos (say for example of a person with the ocean in the background) appear as the person is too dark with the ocean looking perfect in the background or the person lit up fine, but the background is bright white.

Is there a setting to fix this, so that the subject of the image (the person) is properly lit and the background appears correctly?

Hi DavidG21,

Please visit Apple support communities.

Looks like areas of the photos you take with the camera app on your iPhone to appear more or less clear that you are pregnant. This happens because the unit automatically adjusts its exposure (the amount of light in the scene that reaches the sensor of the camera) based on what is photographed. It is more noticeable in high-contrast environments like photographing a person in front of a bright ocean.

You can use the HDR setting in the camera app makes up for it by taking pictures:

HDR (High Dynamic Range) allows you to get great pictures in contrast situations. When shooting with the iSight camera, iPhone takes several photos in quick succession at different exposure settings - and they are based. The resulting picture has better details in bright areas and half-tones.

Use the HDR. (iSight camera and FaceTime camera on iPhone 5 s and later versions) Press the HDR. For best results, keep the iPhone steady and prevent the movement of the subject.

On the iPhone 5 s later, you can choose Auto HDR and iPhone uses HDR when it is more effective.

Keep the normal picture and the HDR version. Go to settings > Photos & camera > keep normal Photo. The normal and the versions of the HDR photo appear in the pictures. Versions HDR photos in your albums are marked with 'HDR' in the corner.

You can also tap on different parts of the screen when taking a picture to adjust the exposure manually and see how the photos will change depending where the image is sharp.

The exposure is automatic, but you can adjust the exposure manually for the next shot by tapping on an object or an area on the screen. With an iSight webcam, touching the screen defines the focus and exposure, and face detection is temporarily disabled. To lock the focus and exposure, touch and hold until the impulses of the rectangle. The screen indicates to what exposure and focus are locked. Take as many photos as you want. When you tap the screen again, exposure and development of unlocking and face detection and automatic settings back on.

These two tips should help you to take great pictures with your iPhone 6s.

See you soon!
