Just read this, so for you camera fans it should be good, Apple has taken advantage now Microsoft has taken full ownership and snapped up a Pureview guru:

Nokia PureView expert Ari Partinen is moving to Apple where presumably the imaging guru will start working to make the iPhone's camera as good as those found on the Lumia range.

Listed as 'Lumia Photography Lead', Partinen is just one of a larger team that has been working on the PureView cameras that can be found in Nokia's Lumia range of Windows Phone devices.

Widely regarded by the industry as some of the best cameras available for smartphone, PureView technology can be found in everything from the experimental Nokia 808 PureView with its 41MP sensor to the latest Lumia 930.

The photography expert announced that he would be leaving Nokia and Lumia via Twitter this morning, later confirming that he would then be heading to Apple.
