News Update : 8:30 AM Tuesday, June 28th, 2022 FYI, we've decided to Hold Off on submitting Photosets v9.53 to App Review until late-Thursday. It's now a much bigger Update than originally planned ! Also, late-Friday we plan to release an Update of our macOS app, Photosets TV, that is sync'd-up with the changes in Photosets v9.53. As a reminder, OR for those who are UN-aware, this website if the ONLY place where you can download Photosets TV. Once third-party App Stores become a viable option, we'll create our own with just our own apps. And naturally, populated with our three apps: Photosets, Photosets TV, & Timmy, our per-Qtr, per-Device iPhone Unit Sales Estimator app (that Apple pulled from their "curated" iOS App Store for BS reasons). -----

Photosets'
"Pro Max Capture" IAP On Tier 1 iPhones & iPads, the IAP controls the app's ability to capture more than "30" photos per set. Specifically, the ability to set the "45" & "60" photos per set options in the Camera Settings dialog. As such, you'll need the IAP to make Professional-grade short-scene multi-scene Videos. i.e., where each Video Scene is 1.5 - 2.0 seconds in duration ! The important thing to know is that the IAP controls a key part of the Camera's Capture Engine. Specifically, how many Photos per Set can by Captured by the Camera, which directly correlates to Video Scene "duration". For the details, please scroll down to the relevant tables below. -----

● One of the most-important things to know about Photosets is: 1.) 4K photos are Image Stabilized, 2.) Full-Res 12 Mpx & 8 Mpx photos are NOT. ● As such, if your Objective is to (also) Make Videos
from your captured Burst Photo Sets,
you'll need to consider your options beforehand. ● Photosets' camera captures with Perfect
OR near-Perfect cycle-to-cycle Capture Timing Performance. ● Which is the Best in the Industry ! ● However, that alone isn't sufficient to guarantee High-Quality Videos
crafted from Burst Photo Sets. ● Either Image Stabilization OR a Tripod OR Monopod is also needed. -----
Burst Photo Capture ● Photosets' Most-Important Differentiated Product Attribute is its
Fine-Tuned "High-Precision" Capture Engine ! ● up-to "45" Full-Res 12 Mpx photos/set @ 30 fps ! ● up-to "60" 4K photos/set @ 30-60 fps ! ● up-to "60" 8 Mpx photos/set @ 30 fps ! ● High-Precision = Perfect OR near-Perfect cycle-to-cycle Capture Timing Performance !
