iPhone 6S iPhone 6S Plus Here is What's Happening
iPhone 6S 6S Plus Rumors & Whispers UPDATE #7
Apple's next iPhone 6 iteration, requires years of research and development, engineering and testing, as with all iPhone model updates. We're going to assume, the next iteration of the iPhone 6 to be released in Q3 of 2015 will be named the iPhone 6S and the iPhone 6S Plus.
Apple's iPhone 6 iteration may be named iPhone 6S, or the name may jump directly to iPhone 7, making it crystal clear that the next iPhone for 2015 will NOT be the traditional incremental update. In 8 weeks we all will know.
iPhone 6S Big News Update as of July 4th, 2015. Sources within Apple's supply-line, namely FOXConn leaked documentation, indicating details regarding the iPhone's Cameras.
iPhone 6S Rear-Facing Camera will contain 12 million pixels, a 150% increase from the current 8.0mp imager, for improved image resolution, and better digital-zoom range, and perhaps true 4k video capability
iPhone 6S Front-Facing Camera will contain 5 million pixels, a 400% increase from the current 1.2mp imager, for greatly improved selfie picture taking, and true HD 1080p video recording and FaceTime Calls.
Apple Clearly Understands iPhone Photography is a Very Important smartphone Component. As a teaching professional, it is common knowledge in the Imaging Industry that Smartphones have stimulated picture taking in a major way.
iPhone Model Updates (A). The iPhone was first brought to market June 29, 2007. Annually, Apple has been upgrading the iPhone with the subsequent model releases occurring generally mid-year from June to October. However, since 2012 iPhone updates have been released in the 3rd week of September. The "S" model releases have occurred on "Odd" numbered years, like, 2009, 2011, 2013. And if history repeats itself 2015 will bring us the iPhone 6S, and 6S Plus.
iPhone Model Updates (B). iPhone "S" updates have focused on improving the Camera, Lens System, Imager, and the iOS System software applicable to Camera Operation and Image Processing. This year should follow this trend, with a number of significant iPhone Camera improvements, among other enhancements, perhaps 2GB of internal RAM (up from 1GB), faster more power-efficient A9 Processor...
iPhone cameras are capturing more Pictures than ALL the other digital Cameras Combined.
iPhones are currently selling 250 million units per year and growing by 30% year over year. iPhone (camera) sales is destroying the traditional pocket digital camera sales.
Canon, Nikon, Sony, Leica, Lumix, Fuji dominate the portable point-and-shoot photography segment for decades. Portable point and shoot cameras transformed to Digital from traditional film about 12 years ago.
iPhone Cameras deliver excellent still-image capture and image stabilized HDTV video recording from 30fps to 240fps, with excellent color rendition and detail. Folks are realizing that there is no discernible need to carry another portable-camera, therefore traditional pocket-camera sales are plummeting.
iPhoneOgraphy. Having published over 500,000 images in recent years ( http://www.416-1100.com), the iPhone digital camera has become very sophisticated. The lens system's aperture is currently at ƒ2.2 with a top shutter speed over 1/1000 second, Color is very accurate, image detail is sharp. For a fixed focal-length camera one could hardly ask for more, knowing that the entire Camera, Lens, Imager system is the size of Kernel of Corn.
iPhoneOgraphy Wish List. Apple has achieved Patents for an internal Zoom Lens System, a unique Light Splitting system so that the primary colors are separated, processed and then brought together digitally for recording onto the memory data card. Apple also received a patent for a Bayonet Lens Mounting system so Lenses may be attached to the iPhone with precision mounting hardware. If and When Apple brings these unique Patents into the iPhone, another Imaging Revolution will be upon us.
Our Professional Photography colleagues will be shocked to learn that many times, I've chosen to use my trusty iPhone 6 Plus (camera) set to HDR mode to capture landscape scenes and sunsets rather than take out my $3500 Canon Digital SLR rig. When we are engaged for a photo assignment, I surely cannot whip out an iPhone.
iPhoneOgraphy. There have been occasions particularly for product imaging, landscapes, and evening sunsets, where the iPhone camera does an amazing job. Combine iPhoneOgraphy with several of the great iPhone Camera and Imaging Editing Apps available today, such as: 645 PRO, GyroLens, PS Express, Photogene4, to name a few. Notice the screen-capture that displays my iPhone home-page showing the most commonly used Apps.
iPhone Cameras. Next year over 1,000,000,000 iPhones (1 Billion iPhones) will be in Circulation.
Apple knows the Power of iPhone picture-taking and SELFIE picture taking. Addressing this huge imaging demand Apple continues to implement a number of significant image quality upgrades. Recall initially, the front-facing camera was "designed" primarily for FaceTime video-calling. To keep the band-width requirements under control, for the service providers, Apple kept the front facing camera to roughly 1 million pixels . Currently, the cellular providers have greatly enhanced their Networks by a factor of 10x, so live streaming HQ video is now mainstream.
iPhone 6S Front Facing 5pm Camera. Apple increasing the front facing camera to 5mp will deliver very high quality images for publication to Facebook, Twitter and other Social Networks. The Front Facing Camera upgrade will also deliver true 1080p, 30 frames per second, High Definition Video, for making Selfie videos, HDTV Movies, High Definition FaceTime calls, and high resolution selfie Picture taking.
iPhone 6S Rear Facing 12mp Camera. Apple increasing the Rear Facing Camera imager to 12mp is a significant increase. Apple has resisted increasing the pixel count in prior iPhone iterations; however, Apple improved and increased the iPhone's pixel-size to reduce low-light noise.
iPhoneOgraphy, iPhone Digital Photograph As a frame of reference the traditional 8"x10" Color Print at 300dpi, requires 7.2mp of image data. (The math: 8x300x10x300 = 7,200,000) One of the principle reasons that Apple retained the 8mp pixel-dimension, was the iPhone's ability to make Framable 8x10" prints.
iPhoneOgraphy. Apple continued to improve Picture Taking by re-Engineered the actual Pixels for three subsequent years (rather than increasing the pixel count) improving the Lens Systems, and adding Optical Image Stabilization, reducing blurred-pictures, by virtually eliminating camera shake.
iPhoneOgraphy for the inPhone 6S. Its reported from supply-line sources that the iPhone 6S Front facing camera will contain a 12mp imager. A traditional digital file with a pixel dimension of 12mp RGB (bayer array: red green blue) can deliver a 300dpi print of 10"x13.3" which is a remarkable capability for a Camera-Lens System that is the size of a small Green Pea, imbedded in the iPhone 6S.
iPhoneOgraphy 4k Video HDTV. The new Rear Facing Camera will also have the capability of recording true 4k HDTV Movies at 30 frames per second. True HDTV 4K recordings means that 30 frames per second with a pixel dimension of 4096x2160 pixels, which equates to 30 images of 8.847mp each recorded at a frame rate of thirty times per second. Canon's $10,000 five pound DSLR professional camera can capture 4k video, but certainly not "pocket-friendly."
iPhoneOgraphy 4k Video Picture Frames. News Reports say the iPhone will be capable of 4k Video Recording. 4k Video recording means that 30 picture frames are captured every second; However, each movie "frame" has a pixel dimension of 4096 by 2160, which equates to thirty 8,847,360 pixel images captured every second. This is a lot of imaging data. Better upgrade to 128GB Phone storage!
In practice, if you were video recording a Tennis Match in 4k format (A), one could scroll through the video Frames, locating the exact Frame where the Tennis Ball was impacted upon the strings of the Tennis Racket, a precise moment in time that Professional Photographers strive for, with their $10,000 Canon SLR cameras, that can capture high-speed photography at just 12 frames per second. Truly, a Wow Factor.
iPhoneOgraphy 4k Video Picture Frames (B), Combine 4k video recording with a Optical Zoom lens, would create an Action Sports camera to behold. Notice the tennis match that I shot in 2005 at a FAU Woman's Court. With 4k recording this shot would be common-place rather than a hard sought-after lucky capture. http://www.416-1100.com/gallery/392033
iPhoneOgraphy, One More Thing. Recently, Apple received a Patent for incorporating a Bayonet Mounting System into the iPhone in support for its Rear Facing camera Lens opening. If implemented, Apple (or the After-Market) would be able to manufacturer Lens Attachments to be precision mounted onto the iPhone.
iPhoneOgraphy. If and When Apple chooses to build a stainless steel Bayonet Mount, this would encourage even more picture taking, with an array of zoom lenses, wide-angle lenses, and telephoto lenses.
iPhoneOgraphy ALSO, Apple received a Patent where a 3x Optical Zoom Lens would be built into the iPhone, internally, making the iPhone with no attachments, an all-in-one camera system combined with all the capabilities of the smartphone.
iPhoneOgraphy. Apple is fully aware that its iPhones owners are capturing Billions of Pictures and video clips. Apple knows that the iPhone Camera with its high quality picture taking capability, is one of the major reasons folks buy iPhones, combined with the iPhone's new larger 4.7" and 5.5" Displays, and its incredible array of iPhone designed Apps.
