WP Cumulus Flash tag cloud by Roy Tanck requires Flash Player 9 or better.
As a strobist – no matter professional or beginner you need light modifiers. These light modifiers can include shoot through umbrellas, bounce umbrellas, soft boxes, octagons, reflectors, etc.
And of course, you want a fairly affordable and as durable solution as possible. This may include making your own, or buying over the internet rather than walking in your local friendly overpriced high street shop (most definitely in UK or Sweden). Read more »
If you work with digital photography, you undoubtedly came across OnOne software’s various plug-ins for Adobe Photoshop. So did I and unfortunately for me I decided to try some of the “goodness”. After all, I do like to simplify certain tasks. And I genuinely trust Mr David Huss of the Photoshop User Magazine (sarcasm)….
I have been long searching for decent RAW processing software. Don’t get me wrong – there is a plethora of different programs offering various bells and whistles. They all look wonderful, but how do they contribute to my workflow?
Most of us have got our own unique way of processing, categorising and re-working our photos and the software we choose should complement our needs as opposed to forcing us to adopt other’s. And so my requirements are more than likely to differ from yours, obviously.
There has been a huge amount of speculations on the matter, including spoof Canon China web site announcement, but finally today Canon announced EOS 50D. By now dpreview and others already posted camera specs, I suppose I will simply go ahead and CTRL+C CTRL+V all data from Canon website:
* 15.1 Megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor
* 6.3fps continuous shooting, max. burst 90 JPEGs with UDMA card
* DIGIC 4 processor
* ISO 100-3200, expandable to 12800
* 9-point wide area AF
* 3.0” Clear View VGA LCD with Live View mode & Face Detection Live AF
* Magnesium alloy body, with environmental protection
* EOS Integrated Cleaning System
* HDMI connection for high quality viewing and playback on a High Definition TV
* Full compatibility with Canon EF and EF-S lenses and EX-series Speedlites
Canon EOS 50D will be available for purchase as a body only, and as a kit bundled with EF–S 18–200mm F3.5–5.6 IS or EF–S 17–85 IS U lenses.
Obviously, a lot of people are excited since this means (analysing previous Canon trends) that a successor to slightly outdated Full Frame EOS 5D will be announced at Photokina in approximately 1 month time. While 50D might be improvement of current semi-professional 40D, most awaited is indeed 5D MkII/3D/7D.
Many photographers are itching to get their hands on this shiny new toy and equally many are likely to start speculating on the next arrival in EOS range.
