   You configure iTunes to synchronize photos on the phone with a directory   
   / folder on the local computer.   
      
   iTunes is the interface for administering audio / video / picture media   
   on the iPhone.   
      
   Well, it was.  Now Apple is starting to dis-aggregate some things into   
   their own program.  But you still have the utilities to do the same   
   thing, just not in one program.

   You can use either of those.  The iPhone and iTunes also support   
   synchronizing over WiFi.  (It's actually standard Ethernet and I think   
   TCP/IP, but the phone doesn't have an Ethernet port.)

   The cable does not imply what I think you think it implies.  The cable   
   is not really anything special.  After all, it's /just/ a USB cable with   
   the standard four wires on the computer end.   
      
   The big difference is how the phone behaves when it's connected to a   
   computer.  Android (and I assume other things) present themselves to the   
   host computer as a USB mass storage (a.k.a. a flash drive).  The iPhone   
   does no such thing.  You /need/ the iTunes program to talk to /   
   interface with the proprietary USB device that is the iPhone / iPod /   
   iPad / ....
