Snippet: iPhone Camera Ruminations ☇

Chuck Skoda:

While considering these many software changes, a potential basis for the diminished veil of secrecy around Apple’s future phones occurred to me. While it’s always been true that hardware is locked-in many months before an iPhone announcement and launch, owing to things like supply chains and manufacturing pipelines, the deep focus on photography would seemingly require stretching these timelines further.

I find this to be a really fascinating analysis and agree with the idea that some really interesting stuff is happening on the software side. Even on my non-Pro 15, I’ve been really pleased with the camera and some of that has to have come from the work done on the 14 and 14 Pro.
