For a long time now, since 2009, Apple's iPhone has been the most popular imaging device uploaded on Flickr.

 

What Apple is doing to develop the iPhone's controls that many enthusiasts, and all serious photographers demand.  With every control set to Auto every shot taken in any camera is nothing more than the old style Point-N-Shoot camera. Nothing wrong using one, but when you want to allow for more light, or a longer exposure, or wider aperture you are faced with using a regular DSLR camera body which in turn forces you to take a much larger image device along. The trouble is there are times when that larger device is far too inconvenient. Thus the iPhone's attempt at manual controls involving ISO setting, Aperture and Shutter Speedis becoming the standard. Also since Apple has opened up the iOS software code restrictions, developers will be writing to alter even the Auto-Mode sensitivity for better auto exposure settings. 

As for the Nokia 1020 and the HTC Sense 6 phones, allowing for white balance adjustments, Apple takes these settings to a whole new level. In the near future Apple will be taking phone imaging as serious as they have taken the cell phone itself. Here's an article from anandtech that explains this in more detail for the photo-files among us.

WWDC 2014 :: Apple Gives Green Light to the Developers

5000 Developers Worldwide Ecstatic at Apple's Attitude for Developers

Every year Apple holds a software developers conference which has always given software code writers an uneasy feeling. This year, 3 years after Steve's passing, Tim Cook's Apple gave them some thing to cheer about. A whole new perspective from the developer's community toward apps created exclusively for iOS operating system apps; openness.

It has always been a feeling of angst when Apple introduces new developments in their OSX and iOS operating systems for a developer because of the hoops they have to jump through in order to get their software accepted. Not this time. Finally Cook has opened a flood of tools for the developers of the world to work with for all of Apple's devices, from apps to OS tweaks and full recoding. From the moment Craig Federighi jumped on stage to the last session, excitement and exhilaration were the key take home feelings.

One has to believe the enthusiasm developers took away this year will be remembered as their best ever attendance at any WWDC onference. 2014 means a radical change and a relationship which all Apple code writers will never forget.


Tim has finally followed Steve Jobs formidable advice, in not asking Steve what to do, but to do what Tim deems best. Tim has, it appears, taken the reigns as Steve had advised. And developers across the world will flood Apple with apps that will make our world a whole lot better, a whole lot faster.
