Tim Tyler Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 The HEIC image format is not currently fully supported by the backend software that runs this forum yet. If you upload an HEIC image to the forum it cannot be displayed in the web browser or phone viewing SteadicamForum. It will only be offered as a download link, and the reader will need to download and open each HEIC image on their device or computer. That is cumbersome. Best practice is to upload and insert JPG and PNG images to the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members James Dunham Posted June 2, 2022 Premium Members Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 Seeing as how iPhones now shoot HEIC by default, how long will it be before the forum is updated to handle these files locally? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Tyler Posted June 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 I'm not sure, James. iPhones are just 14-25% of the market AFAIK but I bet the server software developers have HEIC on their to-do list. Is there an easy way to convert to JPG or PNG in the phone before exporting / uploading? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members James Dunham Posted June 2, 2022 Premium Members Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 You can change your settings to take jpgs. 1. Start the Settings app. 2. Tap Camera. 3. On the Camera settings page, tap Formats. 4. Tap Most Compatible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be higher for Steadicam ops. Haha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
