The XR camera is so good, and so handy, that I think I will trade it this fall for an iPhone 12, partly to get an even better camera, and partly to get support for T-Mobile&#8217;s low-band (600Mhz) 5G, which sounds very promising for rural areas without a lot of cellular towers. The 600Mhz band of 5g uses frequencies that formerly were used by broadcast television. Propagation at those frequencies is excellent. I still use my heavy Nikon D2X camera, by the way. The Nikon is still best for more formal and more carefully composed photos, especially when the camera is on a tripod. But the newer iPhones are astonishly good at snapshots (and video). <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/J-july-6-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18734\" srcset=\"https:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/J-july-6-2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/J-july-6-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/J-july-6-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/J-july-6-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18735\" srcset=\"https:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/J-july-6-3.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/J-july-6-3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/J-july-6-3-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/J-july-6-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18736\" srcset=\"https:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/J-july-6-4.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/J-july-6-4-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/J-july-6-4-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/J-july-6-4-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By the time summer leaves us, most of us are tired of summer.
