thinkfat: If only it worked at all. Neither Firefox or Chrome are able to run the site. Chrome breaks the Albums view and Slideshows, Firefox breaks LightTable :-( It used to be old, now it's kaputt.

Chrome works on both OS X and WIndows 7 for me.

Bill Rees: I realize that bashing the Nikon 1 system is the thing to do but I like mine. I got the V1 on closeout last year along with the FT-1 and a few of the inexpensive lenses. The price on this lens makes no sense. I even feel the wide angle zoom is overpriced.

BTW, I have a D700 and D7100 with lots of lenses. I should know better than to post on this poseur site. Get out and shoot. Jerks.

On Adobe Photoshop CC: What it means for photographers news story (1882 comments in total)
In reply to:

Picturenaut: I have the feeling that Adobe turns out to be the Microsoft of imaging business, they may be on the way to lose contact to the majority of their customers. Adobe should take the Windows 8 disaster as a writing on the wall.

Cloud computing has its pros and cons, I expect most software providers to move to CC. For us in Germany, as an example, this could be a disaster, since our grid is vintage and our telecommunication companies don't invest. At the latest if many people here start to edit their videos using cloud, the whole net will break down... I am not sure which countries in the world are in the same situation but this may cut sales potential for Adobe seriously. And will China allow free CC traffic with Adobe's servers? Including "critical" image material? Wouldn't bet on it.

I use Photoshop CS6, LR 4, and other Adobe stuff, and I will definitely will make up my mind about leaving Adobe's ship on the long run. Clever rats always find other good ships ;-)

Did you read the article? Judging by your two posts I think you still believe this software runs in a browser. It is the same computer-based software that updates more frequently and validates the license via an internet connection.

No images are uploaed to Adobe.

I'd love to see links from the critics of their own film work. This is brilliant.

Bill Rees: Glad I didn't wait for this lens and just got the Tokina 16-28mm f/2.8 which I love. The price is too high for what amounts to a slow, consumer wide-angle zoom.

True but my point is it's over-priced.

CameraLabTester: "photography related"?

Isn't Photoshop mostly about photography and then some?

Ken Rockwell is also plans on shooting small jpeg on his Nikon D800.
