    Compression. I saw very similar “smoothing” on a zoomed in photo I took recently at home as the city sign in the background shows.

    Edit: these are a bunch of turkeys that were about 50 feet away but once I zoomed into the picture the texture seemed really off.

      What camera is doing this? Why would someone use this kind of enhancement? I don’t see the benefit at all — it just looks so much worse.

          Is there actually a fix for this behavior such as deactivate a certain feature? For most images I use “open camera”, but the general quality of the onboard software is just better.

            So if I use the 2x, 1x, or 0.7x zoom things look normal. If I go past the 2x it’s when things start to look painted when you look closely.
