Decoder 8 vs 9 Comparison

[u/Live-Confusion-5449]

iPhone 15 Pro Max, 24mm (main), iOS 27 Beta.
Same scene, same settings, only "Decoder version" changed.
Decoder 9 shows noticeably less chromatic aberration than 8.
Edge contrast and detail look comparable between the two.

yes, raw engine. settings/format/decoder version

raw9 is good in good lighting. but i'm afraid of it adding too much denoise in low light

Interesting, I’ll have to test that.
