What to expect from today's Apple event: 'iPhone 7,' Apple Watch with GPS, more
A flash only lights up a few feet in front of the lens. The reason my expensive digital SLR camera takes clear night time photos without a flash is because the image sensor is 35mm which is dozens of times larger than an iPhone camera sensor. Current technology simply cannot shrink the light sensitivity of my large CMOS sensor down to the size of a chicklet. Not until they invent a new type of sensor will this ever happen.TurboPGT said:
That's not an opinion. That's a fact of the world of photography. Have you ever seen the lights that professional photographers and videographers use in night conditions so that the capture doesn't suck? Photography begins and ends with one thing...Light. It is all about light. And there are only so many tricks a camera and lens can do in the absence of light.palegolas said:This is in my opinion the field where the current iPhones perform the worst. Taking photos in dimly lit conditions with the current iPhones is just sad. Shooting videos in the dark, however, is disastrous.
Besides, the iPhone 6 Plus has been taking incredibly low light photos for 2 years now. You just have to use the flash. I'm amazed by the people that complain about poor low light photos and their examples are taken without the flash. As if that is even an option in low light conditions.

Apple may launch three new iPhones in 2017, limiting curved OLED to one model - report
I want to release my own rumor, that I just came up with.
Apple will release the "iPhone Retro".
It will be a cube with a rounded CRT screen and the resolution will be reduced to blurred 640x480 pixels and the refresh rate will be interlaced 30 frames/sec so it will always flicker. Noise and static will be added every few seconds until you move it around just right to clear up the picture.

MacKeeper threatens 14-year-old YouTube video maker with harassment suit
You left out a word- software UPDATE. I agree with you- Apple should at least make it known to users that Mackeeper is basically malware. My poor mother in-law gets tricked into installing it about once a year.apple ][ said:Who the hell in their right mind would ever install this crap?
I don't trust these people or the software at all, and I certainly don't like their vicious, intrusive, annoying and should be outlawed advertising practices.
This is the software that advertises with intrusive pop ups on many sites. I've had to force quit Safari before, to get rid of those fucking popups.
Hell, there should be a software to keep Mac users safe from this damn software!

Apple supplier Foxconn replaces 60,000 workers with robots
yes. The world economy can't continue on this trend forever. Once everyone is out of work, who will buy the products the robots built? The robots will also replace call centers, IT, drivers, pilots, doctors, heck I can't think of who will NOT be replaced.1983 said:I think increased automation is technically a good thing. But what about those 10s of thousands of workers? What becomes of them and their families? If more and more companies like Foxconn do this, which seems to be the trend, isn't this going to end up in mass unemployment, riots and calamity? -
Apple supplier Foxconn replaces 60,000 workers with robots
Some say yes but another news story of today is that Adidas fired all their Asian factory workers and moved their manufacturing back to Germany where all the sneakers will be made by robots. Once Robots start buying the sneakers, there really won't be any need at all to keep us around...am8449 said:If manufacturing becomes more automated and relies less on human workers, is there any reason to continue to do it in China?
