📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Friday, March 27, 2026 Two things to announce: 1.) Our top priority today is completing & publishing the first-cut of our 3"x5" Photosets User Guide. 2.) Just like Tim Cook & Phil Schiller dug Apple into a hole because of their Screw Ups, President Trump has dug himself, America, & the entire planet into a hole because of his Screw Ups. The former is strictly related to our Photosets. The latter is related to our Photosets ONLY in a tangential way. Specifically, we are the Founders of the Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition (CRITCoal). Our goal is to provide an alternative to the legacy, super-polarized two-party Political System here in the States. And for clarity, we believe it's the accelerating U.S. National Debt that is the single-greatest National Security Risk to our United States of America. Just crossed $39T USD. Ten years ago it had just crossed $19T USD. Off the Radar of most, but should NOT be. ALL goes well, our next U.S. President will be aligned with the principles of CRITCoal. Read that to mean Fact & Science-based Center-Right, NOT Far-Right, & NOT Far-Left. -----

(1) As a reminder, it's Photosets' Long Press Shutter support controlling a User-sized FIFO Buffer that's the starting point of it ALL. (2) Photosets crafts 10-bit Videos simply based-upon what's stored in the app. (3) up-to "60" scenes per 8-bit Video. Also, for the record, from our perspective, nothing Technical prevents v25.411+ from becoming the planet's first-ever De Facto Burst Photo Camera App. -----

(1) Capture, plus various camera controls. (2) Currently ONLY capture, but we're now working on adding support for everything, & more, that Apple supports with their Final Cut Camera app. (3) ONLY if the Master is an iPad and its Camera is participating in the MVC session. (4) via our companion macOS app for Photosets, Photosets TV/Studio. (5) As you may OR may NOT know, Photosets includes an integrated Short-Form, 60-Scene 8-bit 420 Video Maker. And it includes Rock Solid A/V synch support for the optional concurrently captured Audio data. You can run the Video Maker on an iPhone OR iPad. In the past, we had allowed Photosets' 8-bit 420 60-scene Video Maker to also run on a Mac. And for that case, End Users needed our Photosets TV/Studio macOS app with its custom App Group-based Content Sharing support, to pass photo sets IN & get Videos OUT (of the Mac app). -----
