That effect seems to be stripped out or degraded after passing through these converters or exported through DxO PL5. I should add that the iPhone “hdr” HEIC brightness effect is a prominent feature of the native images viewed on the iPhone display (people love it or hate it).
I suppose a proper experiment would involve using a few standard wide gamut test images or targets, viewing on displays and/or printing on an Adobe RGB capable printer. Again, I was not impressed by any display color differences. I repeated these tests after making the HEIC to TIFF conversions I discussed in the previous posts, exporting image files from DxO PL5 with different embedded ICC profiles (sRGB, Adobe RGB, and Display P3). As for color advantages per se, as you concluded, not impressive. Theoretically, I suppose there could be something at the extreme yellow/red or blue/green edges, but I did not really test that.
I did not see much, if any, difference viewing any of these files on a standard sRGB or Adobe RGB non-HDR display or on the iPhone Super Retina XDR display. Interestingly, the iMazing converter also embeds the Display P3 profile (but doesn’t convert to TIFF). Hope this pans out.Īlec – as suggested, I converted a few iPhone 13 mini images from HEIC (8-bit depth) to JPEG using the iMazing HEIC Converter. Using, converting, or ignoring? It might be nice to edit full-size TIFFs and print with a wider-than-sRGB color space. However, I’m not really sure what PL is doing under the hood with the embedded Display P3 profile. Maybe there are other converters that do this trick, but I have not found one.Īfter transfer of the converted TIFFs to my WIN 11 setup, DxO PL5 will open the files just fine and allow editing as usual. The many other converters that I’ve tested either covert to JPGs only, or if they will convert to TIFFs, will only apply sRGB color metadata. This app for my iPhone 13 mini will convert HEIC files to TIFFs, will embed the Apple Display P3 profile in the converted files, and will perform batch conversions.
In the Apple App Store, I found “The Image Format Converter” app by Dongwook Cho (developer) costing about 3 USD or thereabouts. While awaiting DxO’s decision (ahem) regarding support for HEIC files, I’ve been exploring partial workarounds.
