This is still my iPhone. It just dresses better than I do. 📷 @HiFotorgear Retro kit adds a grip, physical controls and a convincing camera disguise. But does it change how it feels to shoot? Full review in the reply 👇🏾

As a DaVinci Resolve and MotionVFX user, Apple’s deeper Final Cut Pro integration worries me. Will Resolve support gradually fade as Apple tries to draw us over? #davinciresolve #motionvfx apple.com/uk/apple-creator-s…

A little channel update! After years as Conveyor of Randomness with Andre, the YouTube channel is now COR Tech with Andre. Same channel, same content, same me. Just a more focused name that reflects what the channel has become. The randomness is still very much part of the DNA

The new Mac mini has me thinking: what would actually make me replace my M4? For my creator workflow, the upgrade needs to mean less time waiting and more time creating. What would push you to upgrade your editing computer?

I’ve always liked the Hollyland M1 and M2, so the Lark M3 has my attention. 4 transmitters to 1 receiver could be a game changer for the face-to-face podcast episodes. Keen to hear how it handles people talking over each other

The stand makes the difference My look at the @TORRAS_Official Q3 AIR Pro for iPhone 18 Pro with a rotating stand, MagSafe and a design that doesn’t feel overly bulky. Case: amzn.to/4ylUJGQ

Camera-equipped glasses make recording almost invisible, and that concerns me. I think they’ll increasingly be used by people with ulterior motives. I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re banned from many public places within the next five years.

As a left-hander, I’ve always had to adapt to a right-handed world. The new iPhone Duo is just another example of this. It would be great if Apple (and others) considered us in their designs, but it’s not the end of the world (it’s still great though)

The iPhone 18 Pro is (on paper) better than my iPhone 17 Pro. Better cameras. Better battery. Better performance. But they’re all “nice to have”. At £1,199, I need more than just “better” to make me upgrade a year early. I’m keeping my 17 Pro #iphone18pro

AI isn’t suddenly arriving in our cameras. Computational photography has been improving smartphone photos and footage for years. Whether we like it or not, OpenAI’s reported purchase of Glass Imaging is really just the next stage of something we already rely on.

OpenAI quietly bought a startup developing higher quality cameras for smartphones in recent months wsj.com/tech/openai-buys-sta… via @WSJ
