These July 2015 tech photography innovations focus on the technical side of photography as well as technological advances in the field. This includes new cameras plus special features and add-ons. Changes to picture printing methods and photo apps have also occurred recently.
Cameras are continuing to take better quality photos by adding enhanced zoom and full frame features.

July 2015 tech photography innovations saw both autonomous underwater cameras and immersive underwater maps as well as stunning space walk photography and space station panoramas.
