An interesting article about the future of cameras. Or a great example of the old maxim, 'its the person working the trigger that gets the photo, not the camera. Or a review of the iPhone X. Take your choice.
Also, some pretty good photos of New Zealand scenery.

Yes, the person takes the photograph and the camera records the photograph, unless the camera is configured to take photographs without a person pressing the button.
As for scenery, New Zealand is a beautiful country and the wife and I plan to visit some day.
By the way, professional is spelled wrong in the title.

I know, I know. I couldn’t correct it.
But thank you for telling me.

Actually you can if you do so with-in the first hour it is posted. I know how and have done so several times. But true it is a bit tricky and not obvious. Oh, don't tell me you were not posting using a computer but an iPhone. There you go.

Last week I couldn't even spell 'professional'. Now I are one!

Although, a Nexus 6p Smartphone is limited as to making prints. I myself attempted to make an 8x10 print at local store, and it only produced a 8x8 print, nothing larger available. Why? Can you explain?

More of a rant than a review but good article and great iPhone pics. I had already decided that my next photo equipment upgrade would be my iPhone, now I’m even more convinced.

I was on an iPad. I could edit the text in the body but even tho 'spell check' was showing the typo I couldn't edit the caption.

No, sorry cant understand that.
I looked at some 6p reviews and most reckoned the camera was up there with some of the more pricey phones when it came out here.
I dont recall any mentioning this limitation. Might be a problem at wherever you got the processing done?
My iPhone only displays square photos and on the odd occasion that I use the camera I have to crop to get a landscape or portrait format.

Interesting. I think that old saying... "It's the person that takes the picture, not the camera" is a bit overdone.
