Episode 214: Dealing with Heat and a Drone Made for Water

from PhotoActive · host Jeff Carlson & Kirk McElhearn

The recent heat waves in the US and UK have us thinking about ways to keep our cameras and phones cool. We also look at a report on Apple’s new raw processing technology coming in iOS 27, and Jeff talks about the HoverAir Aqua, a camera drone designed to be used on the water.
