I want to know more about the snippet during the announcement where a picture was taken. It looked like a photo timer of some sort. But, would you use a tripod or have someone else hold it?...because they could just take the photo for you.

There are so many things that are still in question.
It'll be interesting to see how it all pans out.

The Camera app on the watch can be used as a remote control for the camera on the phone. Means you can rest the phone on a table or something then take a photo or some sort of holder\tripod.

Remote Camera. Apple Watch doubles as a remote for the iSight camera on your iPhone. Use Apple Watch to display a live preview of what your iPhone sees, snap the photo, or set the timer on the camera.

A lot of the questions flying about can be answered by looking at the information that has been released...that stuff above is from the Apple website.
