With recent models such as the IPhone 6S and 6S Plus, we saw a bump in megapixels, a long time coming considering competitors hiked up MP count with Apple trailing shamefully behind. Earlier this week, Apple sent an event invitation to journalists unveiling a clandestine message within its keynote announcement:

To a photographer, this image is no big whoop, anyone with a Nifty Fifty could take this on a regular street at night, but look closer and you will see the predominance of two white circles, perhaps a foreshadowing of Apple’s Dual Camera Lens System rumored to be included in it’s newest iPhone 7 model.

Taking a page out of Huawei’s manufacturing handbook, Apple will be serving up a new camera system that will produce higher quality imagery by way of more megapixels, sharper resolution, better low light sensitivity, and refined zoom software, according to Bloomberg News.

Once again, Tim Cook & Apple innovators are just trying to keep up with the Jones’ as the Leica-Branded Huawei P9 has already offers wide aperture capability, noise reduction, & brighter, sharper images. Their Dual Camera system “captures more light with two sensors, one RGB and one monochrome,” using a Huawei’s merging algorithm to “intelligently combine the colors taken by the RGB sensor with the detail of the monochrome sensor.”
