so those are all the new hero features-- what about the downsides, negatives, possible slowdowns and bugs?

Yeah, you're probably right. I've long thought that I should part my hair on the other side because that's what I look like in the mirror and the way it looks right to me. For photos that others are going to see, I would rather it be the way they see me, not the vanity of how I see my own reflection. Maybe that's just me.

Can you lock exposure but not focus?
Software and, more importantly, the increased machine learning capabilities of the A13 compared to the A12. Overall, the A13 wasn’t a drastic upgrade to the A12, but the neural engine did receive a pretty sizable upgrade.
Just would be nice if that was supported by all devices that support iOS 14.
Doesn't seem like that's the kind of thing that this particular article is about.

Can't you already hold down the volume-up button for burst mode? Or am I missing something (probably most likely that I'm not understanding something).

It's now eleven months after the iOS 13 release, and I still can't sync photos between macOS and iOS. It absolutely doesn't work. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250716707

Now if only the file picker on macOS Safari was natively able to convert from HEIC to JPG. The amount of websites that don’t support HEIC makes this an absolutely necessity. The workflow is too slow right now.

It’s hardware - just not the one you think. The night mode is accelerated by the image co-processor that older devices don’t have.

They already do - swipe to the left for burst, swipe to the right for quick take. But I wish they’d allow to swap the default to burst.
I never understand the change of pressing the shutter button. For a decade (?) or so, the smartphone industry have taught users that pressing the shutter button will result in burst shots. Video has always been a separate button or mode for obvious reason.
Now who had the smart idea at Apple to change this behavior? I mean why? I don't see anybody complaining that they expected video recording from a photo taking mode.

It's because apps like Snapchat and Instagram stories made it popular. If you use these apps you'd know that a long press means video. I think Samsung did it first with the Note 10 as they claimed it will record directly to your Instagram story.

I think they just want their selfies to match what is shown on the screen when they take them.
It must have been available in the 1st or 2nd beta which I may have not installed I guess I have a X too and I’ve yet to see the mirror feature. I emailed the editor a week or two ago to make it known that not all the camera features are available on models older than the XS. Not sure if they ever did.

Maybe to get all the money that comes from all those folks upgrading from iOS 13?
I think that’s a convenience thing, not a security thing. It’s not hidden as in “protected” it’s hidden as in “when you’re scrolling through your images, you’ll never want these to be a part of any project, so you can choose not to see them.” Plus, no one can even get to the Photos app without authenticating to the device, so the Photos are already protected.
For Location Data, I’d like for them to use AI, detect landmarks in the photo and suggest to update the “location” of that picture. For example, if I travel with a group and someone shares photos with me from their higher quality camera that we all took from a similar vantage point, I’d like those higher quality un-tagged photos to have the option to be tagged the same as another photo, taken within minutes, with the same general landscape/compsition.
Ah, good point.
4 fps implies a Burst, so ...
Don't know about Single Exposure, but my iPhone 11 Pro Max running iOS 13 can do 3 fps today with Triple Exposure.
That's the best I've been able to do with ...PhotoOutput.
...VideoDataOutput on the other hand, offers 10x BETTER capture performance !
The BIG question however, is what happens when the Back Wide Camera's image sensor is bump'd up to 64 Mpx, which i believe will happen with ALL OR most of the iPhone 12 models !
It's then Full-Res 64 Mpx @ 15 OR 30 fps, OR 16 Mpx @ 30 fps.
Compare that to the status quo of Full-Res 12 Mpx @ 30 fps; i.e., the current benchmark.
And finally, just to point it out, 3 fps (iOS 13) to 4 fps (iOS 13) is 1/3 faster, NOT 90% !

In 2019 I couldn't see anyone upgrading to an iphone 11 due to those specific features only. Add in the entire package of night site, better battery life, better/brighter screen, etc and maybe.
