Hello guys. I came across a strange fact about my iPhone. It doesn't allow me sharing more than 5 pictures.
When I want to email some of my new pictures from 'photos' application I have to press the button in the upper right corner, choose some pictures and then press 'share' or 'copy'. The thing is that after I choose the 6th photo both buttons become inactive. Meaning I can only choose between 5 photos. And this is obviously strange and very uncomfortable, because I need to send about 20 pictures at a time. I can go back and forth from 'email' to 'photos' and keep on adding pictures, but that's ridiculous.​
I read here: iPhoneInterest Sharing more than 5 pictures at a time from picture gallery that I can not 'share' more than 5 pictures at a time, but I can 'copy' and paste multiple (more than 5) pictures from 'photos; to 'email'.
Did anybody have the same issue? Can it be solved? I bought my iPhone with iOS 4.1 preinstalled, and then updated it already once. Now I think that maybe they disabled this feature. :(
Please share your experience on how to email more than 5 photos at a time.​

It's to do with the software trying not to overload the "clipbpoard" and keep too much in the cache, it's not really a bug or anything just the way it's been made

No, we can't.

Everyone has the exact same issue, because that's the way the app is set up to work.

Google it and you will see how people can copy 20 pictures and then paste it to the email.

Or maybe nobody has FACE recognition as well? cause I don't here. :( In photos I only have 'events' and 'albums' :( no faces (but this issue, as I suppose can be solved by updating to the latest version of iPhoto on my iMac).

Does copy and paste not work for you? Us Americans have the same five picture limitation on sharing, but we can copy and paste many more. Not sure why Apple imposed this limitation, but the simple fact is that it's there and we just have to learn to live with it, if and when Apple decides to change it.
