Episode 323 – You’re being too logical

Bruce Williams

This week, I briefly tossed around the idea of ditching Adobe’s subscription model for LR and PS.
The two nearest non-subscription contenders I could find were DxO Optics Pro and ACDSee Ultinmate.
If you have used either of these (and particularly if you have also used LR/PS), we’d love to hear your thoughts on the strengths and weaknesses of any/all players.
I came across this portfolio of surreal selfies by Angela Buron.
This devious real estate photography could result in a $22,000 fine for the agent in question.
At what point does your love of the paying gig, get toppled in favour of ethics?
Clint Simonsen weighed in on the subject of NAS bays and drives.
He’s a fan of the Synology diskstation.
Adam told us about the guy printing on exquisite handmade Japanese paper, using platinum and palladium for the developing materials. He claims his prints will last 1000 years.
Which is not quite throwing down the gauntlet to the glass disc which promises to hold your family snaps for a mere 13.8 billion years.
Reg Vardy sent us this simple comparison of RAW vs JPEG,
and Rob Coates replied to Glynn’s comments from the last episode.
Glynn told us about Tamron releasing 2 new lenses,
Pentax’s new 35mm DSLR, the K1,
Full MOMA course on Seeing Through Photographs,
and Kelby One letting a bunch of people go.
If you are 21, don’t take selfies!

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.

    Re Fingers. Calmurid made a big difference to dry skin on my elbows or go to the Doc.

    Re the glass disc that is claimed to store images for 13.8 billion years: The figure rang a bell with me and a check with the infallible Wikipedia shows that it’s the currently accepted age of the Universe.
    So the manufacturer either has a sense of humour or is perhaps a fan of the Big Bang Theory TV show. Possibly even both.
    Regards,

    PS – Thanks for taking my good-natured jibe re photo books in the right spirit, Glynn.
