You left out Windows Photo Gallery.

thinkfat: That is most absurd. I have a smartphone, the ultimate mobility device, and I'm supposed to walk into a Polaroid store to have my photos printed?

They'd be better off canning their mushroom and selling that instead.

Think like a fifteen year old girl for one minute.

sodacan: "Like many panorama apps, Photo Sphere struggles with moving subjects in the frame."

Uh, what on earth were you expecting when you shot that? That's a 100% user error and it did an excellent job at handling it.

It could have caught something coming out of the portal.

Valentin Hertz: Why would I use this Pocket wizard toys vs Nikon integrated infrared? Just because it uses radio? I definitely want TTL and all the Nikon has...

Please advise.
Thanks!

Do your own test, take your IR system outdoors on a sunny day and see how far you can get a reliable signal.

qianp2k: If this supports Canon eTTL or Nikon iTTL? It seems not really replace Flex-TTL 5 or mini-TTL 1 but Plus II. It uses for triggering purpose. Otherwise its price is too good to be true if it supports eTTL/iTTL.

I tdoes not support I/E-ttl

In reply to:

zelig2: This does not do TTL. It's only ment to replace the aging Plus II. Really this is a MultiMAX at a much cheaper price.

the Multi-Max does things this one does not do.

Thanks!

Infrared has limitations that radio does not have.
the first and most limiting is the need for "line of sight" communication.
the second and almost as limiting is the need for a lower ambient light than is usual out of doors..

Gandalf_nouvelordi: "Disappointingly the lens has no filter thread of its own"
Are you really sure? on the pictures, we can see some circles that strongly look like filter thread!!!
imaging resource talk about it, but couldn't check the thread diameter.

Check out the accesory list.

On Preview: Canon PowerShot G1X large sensor zoom compact news story (791 comments in total)
In reply to:

asdfsky: this G1X is a boring camera, nothing special from design , feature, viewfinder and lens.

It is not an "APS-c" camera
it is more on the lines of a 4/3
18.3 mm x14 mm.
this may in fact be Canon's bridge into that format market.
Stay tuned.

On Software Technique: Creating and Adding Textures article (80 comments in total)

good article.
But textures can be either a tool or a crutch.

I've seen many images which the photographer tried to pass off as artistic when in fact they were sub-par; and the texture was the only interesting thing about it.

On Grandfathers fiddle in the Composition: Still Life challenge (2 comments in total)

I like this Idea, but I think the image does not do justice to that beautiful fiddle.
The elaborate decorations are lost in the reflected glare from the over lit music pages.
