California Streaming – Apple Event – 14 September 2021
Apple have announced their annual autumnal event this year on 14th September. We’re hoping for the announcement of the new iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max. Rumoured to have similar styling as the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max respectively, what we’re always interested in here are the camera modules and specs. Again, rumours abound of larger lenses and ProRes video support. A larger battery too, always a good idea, as well as potentially an A15 chip and a USB-C connection as opposed to Lightning. Perhaps we will also see a ninth generation iPad as well as an iPad mini 6 and also there’s always Apple…

Mobile Photograph – Leaks appear on Samsung S10 specs
With three and four rear cameras already featuring on high-end smartphones it’s perhaps not out of the question that rumoured Samsung Galaxy S10 will feature three cameras. At least that’s the verdict according to the twitter user, Evan Blass, a well-known and, more to the point, usually well-informed individual with the handle @evleaks. Few preliminary Galaxy S10 details: – "Punch hole" style selfie cam cutout (sounds like Infinity-O display).– Ultrasonic, in-display FPS– Three rear cameras (standard/wide/tele)– One UI over Android Pie — Ev (@evleaks) November 13, 2018 Blass is also tipping what he calls a “Punch hole – style sefie cam” relating it to the Infinity O display screen showcased…

Mobile Photography – iPhone X Battery Size Larger
Interestingly enough, news just in, confirms that the battery size of the awaited iPhone X is larger than the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus. The iPhone X will contain a 2,715mAh battery, the iPhone 8 sports a 1,821mAH and the iPhone 8 Plus a 2,675mAh cell. Random Access Memory (RAM) capacity, which is essentially memory, not to be confused with storage space, is also larger on the iPhone X, it weighs in with 3GB in total, that’s more than the iPhone 8 but is equivalent to the iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone 7 Plus. All these issues are crucial to mobile photographers, good news.

RED Hydrogen One Brand New Smartphone – In Greater Depth…
You may have heard that RED, the ultra high end camera manufacturer has stepped into Smartphone territory and announced a premium smartphone called Hydrogen One, with ‘holographic display’. Designed to work on the Android platform with a 5.7 inch display apparently will ‘seamlessly switch between traditional 2D content and holographic multi-view 3D content, as well as interactive games’. Preorders are already filling up for the $1,195 aluminium version and the $1,595 titanium model on RED’s website, with shipping expected to be early 2018. It’s interesting… I am a huge fan of RED gear and having visited Google’s HQ in London a few times, I know they’re packed into their YouTube…

VSCO Closes New York Office
The New York office of VSCO was opened last year to much fanfare, sadly for the company they have now had to close it and the staff have lost their jobs. According to the report in Techcrunch, some New York staff were offered opportunties to relocate to offices in Denver or Oakland locations. VSCO redesigned their mobile applications last summer but the mobile photography community did not receive these updates favourably and their App Store ratings sunk. A further update was released in November last year, addressing some of the user complaints but perhaps that was not enough to save their New York office. We will keep you informed of…

iPhone 5 Pre-Orders To Start On September 12, 2012
MacRumors are reporting that iMore are correct in their assumptions that preorders in the US for the brand spanking new iPhone 5 will commence on September 12, 2012, the same date that the magical device is also rumored to be announced. The actual release of the new handsets is apparently planned for September 21, 2012 in the US. International orders will apparently begin around October 5, 2012. Obviously none of these dates have been confirmed, Apple has not even confirmed they will be announcing the new iPhone 5 or iPhone as it may be called, yet either. We’re pretty damn sure that it’s happening though and we can’t wait. Watch…

Nikon Coolpix S800 To Have Android Inside
According to Nikonrumors this morning, Nikon will soon announce a new Android based compact camera. The model name will be the Coolpix S800. Nikon is expected to make this announcement at Photokina later on this year. We knew it was only a matter of time until this happened, afterall the compact camera market has suffered hugely with the popularity of the Apple iPhone and Samsung Galaxy S II and III to name just a few. It’s interesting, where does this leave us? Our phones have become our cameras and our cameras are becoming our phones. I think the vast majority of digital cameras will have Android inside before long. It’s…

iPhone 5 And iPad Mini To Be Announced On September 12, 2012
Possibly another rumor but we’re also quite certain it’s not too far from the truth, iMore has revealved that Apple is planning to debut the new iPhone and the iPad Mini at a special event on September 12, 2012 and the iPhone 5 will be available to purchase 9 days later, as yet there is no ‘confirmation’ on the availablility of the iPad Mini. The iPhone 4S event was held last year on October 4 and it was available 10 days later so it’s all very feasible. We haven’t got long to wait now and there’s bound to be a host of rumors inbetween but one thing’s for sure, it…
