Shutters Inc – episode 254

This week, we start off with something we were MEANT to cover last week:
an e-mail from David Marland pointing to a post which featured some tips for integrating your Lightroom workflow, with that of DxO software.
David says “There are recommendations for plug ins and they all get horrible complicated, but, the last comment from Romke on 25 October 2013 (page 2) I think gives a simple approach.”
Rob Coates reminds us of the need to have backups of our image collections… and NOT to leave them in the car along with your laptop!
Bruce has finally been out with the camera, shooting the Top Gear Festival in Sydney,
Glynn has again been “chasing serendipity”,
Adam Davidson sent us a bunch of links, including:
the Olympus patent for variable exposure times for different areas of a single frame,
Drones, lights, night time and long exposures make for a wicked combination,
Target’s massive Photoshop fail,
images from behind German lines during World War 1,
and 9 features every DSLR should have now.
Carl Hemmings sent us a link to this awesome video of National Geographic photographer, Paul Nicklen photograhic leopard seals in Antarctica,
we received some more photographic quotes from you guys,
and Glynn told us about the 2014 Iditarod,
making money from Instagram,
Nikon sues Sigma over alledged VR technology infringements,
and it wouldn’t be an episode of Shutters Inc without at least one mobile app recommendation… This week, Glynn is impressed with Shoot and Sell.
And for once, it’s an app that’s available on both iOS, and Android.

I have been a professional audio engineer since the mid 80's and am happy to do for free in my spare time what I get paid to do during the week. I created Shutters Inc in May 2005, and it is today (as best as I can tell) THE longest-running photography podcast in the world.

    Bruce, Glynn was giving you guff about shooting Sony in the things DSLRS should have. But you camera is a generation old (and still great). But my A77 has focus peaking, live histogram, GPS, Face detection (which is actually quite useful, especially with kids), AF with video, at least two speeds of motor drive.

    I can also “quasi-hypersync” with it, which gives remarkably clean images all the way up to 1/4000 (very minor banding with radio remotes, no banding with PC cord).

    Networking is not present, but I can use Eyefi to my phone.

    Progamable is somewhat vague, sooo…..
