Guys, does the Optical image stabilization on iPhone 6 Plus really make a big difference when taking picture?

Also, between A8 chip and Snapdragon 801, how big are the difference of these processors?

Optical image stabilization means a little shaking may not affect the sharpness of your photos. This is mostly useful when the environment is not so bright and the shutter speed is slow.

In daylight or brightly lit conditions, it doesn't matter much because the shutter speed is fast and the picture should be sharp with optical or digital stabilization.

At shutter speed of 1/125 or faster (which the iphone will use for most daylight conditions), you can get the same sharp pics WITH or WITHOUT stabilization (because the shutter speed is faster than your hand motion.... assuming your hand is reasonably stable as most people).

PS: At bright conditions, the sharpness of your pic will be limited by the sensor and lens etc, not much helped by stabilization.

i was disappointed they still had a 16gb option. i was hoping it would be from 32, 64, 128 sleep.gif. if gaming is a priority then definitely 64gb. with metal, devs have more reasons to jack up the size of their games haha. photos and videos can always be transferred to a computer / upload online so that shudn't be much of an issue.

correct me if im wrong (ip4 user here... no ios8 for me tongue.gif), the huge ios8 update size are files that rewrites the current OS and then some. so it's not that you'll lose 5gb of space right?

Yup, you're right. Needs more than 5GB free space on your device before you can download/install. The actual download is about 1GB+. After installation, your free space will also be down about 1GB (updating from iOS7 to iOS8).

Hi, anyone know how much free space on 16gb iP6? And avrg picture size?
Im not an app geek. Just love to take picture. Not sure if 16gb will suit me well.

Should be about 12~13GB available...for iPhone, iOS8 needs about 800MB more than on iOS7.

Picture size should not be much different from iPhone 5/5S, about 2~4MB per photo.

My 2 year old iPhone 5 now still has 7.5GB space available (on iOS8) smile.gif .... well, I don't keep too many photos or videos on the phone (mostly trasferred to computer). And I don't have those games that need lots of space.
