Apple has hired senior Lumia engineer Ari Partinen, a camera expert who worked on Nokia's PureView team.

Partinen made the announcement on Twitter:

Today will be my last day working for the amazing #Lumia family. In June I will start a new chapter in Cupertino, California. Much love!

Thank you for great discussions and feedback! (And it is the company you are thinking assuming you are thinking Apple) =)

ESM China analyst Sun Chang Xu reported late last month that the iPhone 6's camera will feature electronic image stabilization rather than optical image stabilization, and a larger pixel size. However, a recent Apple patent filing describes a method for using optical image stabilization to create 'super-resolution' images. While the specs for Apple's next generation smartphone are unconfirmed, it's likely that we will see camera improvements.

Or tried to be since all it was is 41mp? What kind of strategy was that? Why cram in more when you do with much less even if that means saving money! Hurl.....hurl!....
