P: iOS 16 no flash in Lightroom when shoot DNG

[Seb261424568o7y]

Hello, after upgrade to iOS 16 I'm not allowed to shoot dng with flash using professional mode (auto works fine). Does anyone have the same problem? Thank you

It is working here on iPhone 13 Pro max - with iOS 16.

Professional Mode:

Flash on Manual:

DNG: 
UW, W, T lenses all work.

Did you try to change ISO or exposure time?

Hey, it doesn't work on iOS 16 now. How do I report it? Thank you

Hi @Seb261424568o7y 

What specific device model are you on?  I can't reproduce this on my 11 Pro Max, but want to get a new bug entered and your device info would help.

[Seb261424568o7y]

On both iPhone 12 pro Max and 14 pro.

Thanks for the follow up @Seb261424568o7y 

The 12 Pro Max has a separate, new issue on iOS 16 -- UW lens fails to capture as a DNG.  Otherwise, the flash seems to work, per my team mate who also has the 12 Pro Max.  Is that true for you?  

Just curious, does JPG capture allow flash to work?

Hey, it works on either jpg or dng but only in auto mode or professional if you don't change iso settings etc.. before i could use flash and change settings.

I took a closer look at your screenshot and realized your flash was disabled because you had set a custom shutter speed in Pro mode.  Whether DNG or JPG, doing this disables flash to give the photographer more precise control of lighting to produce results more in line with what the viewfinder shows.  This is not a bug introduced in iOS 16, but is how the LR Camera works.  Hope this helps.
