iPhone 4 Camera
Tuesday, June 8th, 2010
The camera and camera control UI in the new iPhone 4 is pushing this phone into the world of decent point and shoot cameras. Plus, the new iPhone has a decent second camera on the front side for both self portraits and video conferencing. Check out the sample images at the bottom of the page. Fantastic.
Fantastic images indeed! I would get an iPhone but I am really irritated that it is offered only as a combination of the phone and a certain mobile phone operator. My mobile phone bill per month would be three times more than at the moment if I would take an iPhone. I can not just purchase the phone and put my SIM card in.
Jonne: Yes, that’s an issue everywhere including here as many are not in love with AT&T who is our carrier. In your area no doubt Nokia rules the land and has had decent deals with the cell carriers for a long time.
All of this will change eventually no doubt. The iPhone is quite an amazing tool and iOS is here to stay. The interesting question to ponder is whether, as I’ve speculated before, there will ever be a hybrid that will run both Mac OS and iOS. I’d love a MacBook Air with a multi-touch screen that did just that. That would be my iPad.
