The iPhone 5’s Low Light Boost Mode

Jim Rhoades, developer of the Scout Camera iPhone app:

However, after posting a thread to the Apple developer forums I’ve learned that 3rd party developers CAN take advantage of this special “low light boost mode”. (Thanks Apple!) […]

They chose to make the low light boost mode optional, as the increase in light sensitivity comes at the cost of some increased noise (not surprisingly). Making it optional was a good decision.

Great news.
