Adobe Camera Raw and Nikon D200

Jan 19 2006 Published by under photography

Looks like the new ACR is available, which includes support for D200 RAW files.  It’s not actually on the ACR site yet, but it’s on Adobe’s public FTP server: ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/photoshop/cameraraw/win/3.x/  (windows) ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/photoshop/cameraraw/mac/3.x/ (mac) Woo-hoo!  It was getting a little painful copying to a Mac, converting to DNG with Lightroom, back to windows, and processing using Bridge/ACR/CS2.

Image aggregator prototype

Jan 19 2006 Published by under newsgator, photography

The other night, on the way home, an idea came to me…so I pulled up my development environment and decided to write some code.  I think my terrified development team is probably locking me out of the source control systems as we speak… ;-) My thought was this.  I’m a visual person, and a lot [...]

Does anyone recognize these folks?

Dec 02 2005 Published by under photography

When I was out in Santa Monica a few weeks ago, there was a film crew working on the Promenade. These are pictures of the actor and actress that were doing the scene: It could have been a movie, TV, or commercial…not sure. They appeared to be using film, rather than digital, if that gives [...]

Review – Zoto

Nov 22 2005 Published by under photography

Up next in my short series is Zoto. I first heard of these folks at BlogOn 2005, when I met Kord (their CEO).  He gave me a quick demo of what they’re up to, and I got a coupon good for a free 5GB upgraded account.  Cool! Here’s the now-dormant site I set up. For [...]

Flickr – review

Nov 22 2005 Published by under photography

What can we say about Flickr…great site, unbelievably popular, acquired by Yahoo!.  All good stuff.  But how would it measure up to what I was looking for? The first problem was the 20MB/mo upload limit, and the fact that they would automatically resize your images and only store a limited-resolution version.  With what I wanted [...]

Choosing a photo hosting site

Nov 22 2005 Published by under photography

I’ve caught the photography bug. Not sure exactly what did it…I was reading a copy of PC Magazine a few months ago where they reviewed some DSLR’s, and somehow got excited about it. Many hours of research later, and I had a Nikon D50 sitting on my table, and that was just the beginning. :-) [...]

May 23 2003 Published by under photography

Gosh…so this might be one of the only inside-Starbuck’s pictures around. And I got to be in it! I feel like such a rebel. Lessig suggests a fun weekend project at Starbuck’s.[Scripting News]
