Quinn Nelson of Snazzy Labs shared his amazement when he discovered that the updated Apple Pencil Pro was able to cast a virtual drop shadow of the tool that he selected from the menu on his iPad. In Nelson’s case, it was the shadow of the fountain pen he was using, which became more and more detailed as he moved the Apple Pencil around.
