Yesterday Apple introduced iPod Nanos that look like Shuffles, iPod Shuffles that look like pocket change, iTunes that looks like Facebook, and best of all…
HDR in the iPhone camera app.
Basically, when you’ve got bright light in part of your shot that would results in blown our highlights, you turn on HDR. The camera takes 3 shots instead of one, and combines them to preserve details in dark ares and bright areas.
From these early demo shots, Apple’s implementation looks to be subtle and well-done.
