Then Adobe feels that you're not one of the 2.9 million customers who were affected (although I'd change your Adobe password and just keep an eye on credit card transactions for a while.) My...

This isn't about cloud services. The service is not on the same servers as the source code or consumers personal information. Running programs from a cloud doesn't imply that a user's full...

I don't believe it's limited to cloud subscribers only. I'm not a subscriber but have purchased from Adobe in the past. Here is what their email to me said specifically: "If you have placed an...

"Cyber attacks are one of the unfortunate realities of doing business today. " -Brad Arkin, Chief Security Officer, Adobe.

Well, that is really more dependent on how much money and resources a...

I don't know about the person you spoke with, but if one is part of the business elite then one will say anything to promote the corporation as an entity that does no wrong. One cannot question...

That seems to be opposite of what most scholars of Japanese business culture say.  Here's just one of many articles out there:...

I use reversal film almost exclusively in 4x5 and 8x10 sheet sizes.  I agree that reversal film is quite luscious (when exposed correctly and color balanced correctly.)  It's unfortunate (for me)...

fwiw, I have the 1.2, a 1.8 long nose AI, and a 1.4 long nose AIS. All three are excellent but the 1.2 does have very unique qualities. As leighton w says, it has a 'special rendering.' Wide open...

(snipped for brevity...) Very good post and I agree.  There's also a reason why lots of TV productions use film (Breaking Bad as one good current example.)  A worthwhile documentary is Keanu...

Real aperture rings and manual focus (and many have fairly long throws.)  And Nikkor AI and AIS lenses are good candidates for cine conversions like the kind that Matt Duclos is well-known for...

I agree about the 24. It''s a little too wide and if not used very, very carefully, it can draw too much attention to the lens itself.  By that I mean wide angle lenses can often end up being more...

Optically and mechanically there is absolutely nothing wrong with the AIS lenses.  Some are downright spectacular.  Plus manual focusing can be more precise and keeps you in control. There are AIS...

That's not quite the correct answer. First, think of motion picture films that originate on film stock. The film is telecine'd (scanned and digitized) for non-linear editing and color grading...

imho, the IQ of the files this camera produces are excellent.  If you have a lot of Nikkor lenses, then it's kind of a no-brainer to get a D600.  I have a D3s (for documentary type work) and the...

fwiw, I use a small industrial polypropylene putty knife/scraper and wrap a piece of Pec-Pad around it fastened with an Avery brand self-sticking label.  It basically the same thing that Copper...

Had most of the 'digital-automatic-auto-focus-camera newbies' been around when film was all that there was, they probably would have just given up making photographs altogether. Digital has...

Just as a reminder, the D610 has yet to be announced.  So you don't know what the specs are going to be with the D610.  It's even possible that it might even be a kind of D700 replacement; i.e., a...

fwiw, these are my two favorite Leica lenses and I think are probably some of the best lenses ever made by Leica. They not only have excellent resolution, but each of them have unique...

Leica has always pushed the envelope in optical design and their current lenses are no exception. Although that 'optical perfection' can sometimes result in something that may not be ideal in real...

I never thought of Leica as "pride of ownership." I started out with Leica film cameras decades ago because they were the only choice in a compact rangefinder with compact and excellent lenses. The...
