  • Editorial: 'iPhone 11' design will advance Apple's mobile imaging lead

    Interesting, I would love to see Apples processing power and sensors in a full fledged camera body  (I think Phil Schiller would love that) with a set of superior Apple lenses.
    Question: is depth sensing per pixel?
    There is not a high volume market for "full fledge camera body" cameras. Apple doesn't even make its own lenses. And no depth is captured at a lower resolution than the photo image. 
    I would be surprised if there wasn't. Not as much as iPhones but perhaps as much as Awatches.
    There are a lot of ‘professional’ photographers who would love to work with a ‘Pro’ device.
    It would be fun to see Apples take on ultra high quality lenses, a technically challenging territory (and no dependency on Sony any more). 
    Do you know what the exact depth resolution is?

    I really get tired of those who downplay profits.  Gross Profit makes the world go round, and, most importantly, funds research for new and better products.
    Very true, the world is built on profit, on making a buck, on cutting a deal and screwing over the other guy. Of getting more things, and bigger things, and newer things than your neighbour. 
    But I wonder why it has to be that way.
    Because yes Apple made record profits this year, Cook got a $115 million bonus for meeting Apple's profit target.
    But within a mile of Apple HQ there are people sleeping on the street and eating garbage. 
    Profit doesn't mean much to them.
    There has to be a better way.

    A gold rush brings out the best in men.
    Would that that were true. Sadly, history has shown exactly the opposite on numerous occasions.
    Sorry forgot the s /s quotes around it.

    Why the venom in the majority of comments? The Woz is very clear that he is expressing his personal perspectives and not trying to shove his opinions down your throat. There’s nothing disrespectful coming from Woz to us so why sling disrespect back his way? 

    Geez, there was a time when men could express themselves and those who didn’t agree with them would politely nod and say “okay.” Now if someone says something people don’t agree with they’re likely to plunge a fireplace poker in the speaker’s face. 

    The chill is gone. 
    The problem is that we don’t want to hear his opinion on this matter. He can talk whatever he wants. Why does he yet get attention from media?
    Speak for yourself.

    This guy is totally irrelevant and should stop embarrassing himself 
    Why? He makes a lot of sense I think and leaves room for other opinions.
    Do you?
