First: Roundup Portfolio Apps For iOS

With its high-resolution displays, large screen real estate and inherent portability looks tablet computers like the Apple iPod and Samsung Galaxy as custom made for the presentation of the portfolios of the photographers were.

Not only photographers, of course - they also have enormous potential appeal to different image motifs, including students, brokers, architects and variety of other professionals. For now, at least most of the momentum is behind the development of the portfolio of apps for Apple's iPod tablet made available, but over time, inevitably, more and more applications will be ported to - and for - other platforms.

While the iPod will be implemented with well-integrated app for viewing photos, including first-class slide show function with the option of accompanying music directly from iTunes Add, it does  t have all the customization options allow customization or branding. As result, it is not the kind of AOS application that will impress client when pitching for high commissions during formal presentation portfolio. Her work can be fantastic, but it is presented can make all the difference.

In this article, I took look at eight popular portfolio of apps developed for Apple's ions to see how suitable they are made for wide range of users. For most users and client experience, keep in mind that certain amount of preparatory work is inevitable - to produce everything from re-sizing images pictures or logos for branding purposes. As usual, I would like to point out that this Roundup will not be exhaustive in any way and is only intended as an introduction to the portfolio of applications.

Pad Folio Late is somewhat unusual among apps portfolio, it's free. A stripped down version of the more full-featured pad folio, for $ 9.99 is limited Pad Folio Late, only one gallery, and even then it is limited to only 10 frames so unless you, Adore very picky about your images is this is really meant as taster.

However, if you are sufficiently intrigued to stump up $ 9.99 for the full version, offers great pad folio, Aileen, an intuitive user interface, customizable home-and-splash screens, drop box integration and support for video files, and the requirement stills. There, perhaps, the AOS user interface that really stands out though. The password-protected screen-management is simple but very effective and while the app supports branding, it looks good, even if you don ™ t want to go that far.

Once the card pretty clever placeholder is filled in, this is then used as your personal branding throughout the app. The special feature is not customizable, which is, as such, AOS no choice of fonts or the size or color, but it looks very smart at the top of page and can even e-mailed as calling card from the gallery page. Entire folders of images can be imported and galleries can be hidden.

Individual images can be easily labeled, either singly or as multiples and zoomed even during slide show we also liked the super-fast animation between views. However, there are few quirks There, AOS is no provision in the music with the slideshow feature to synchronize and it seemed no way to get break Superfast preview image to be an option.

I also found what appeared to be an error with the PIN-protected key management. Although was completely stable during most of my tests, on one occasion, the app my PIN number at reset, and denies access to another. According to the developers, an update to certain problems with the power is on iPods filed with ions 5 at Apple. Despite some peculiarities, however, serve to pad folio fast, very intuitive and looks great.

first: 4 More DSLRs Coming in 2012

Received some information that Canon is far from done, as far as cameras go for 2012 start. I am told that there are 4 other DSLRs come in 2012.
Which cameras.

It is unknown if the expected mirror-less entry counts against the said 4 camera housing.
Speculation about what could possibly be below 4 cameras.

1. First Entry level full-frame camera. Think of it as a direct replacement for the 5D Mark II

2. Second Presume APS-C, maybe the 70D and not a direct replacement for the 7D.

3. Third the large-megapixel entry mentions an EOS-1D style body is.

4. The mirror-less entry.

If the mirrors are not loose against the four alleged camera body I'm not sure what else could roll up their sleeves for the Canon EOS line, few people have proposed an EOS 5D cinema lineup, but I do not think that it probably starts after the EOS-1D C from late 2012.

Leica Monochrome M9 and Compact X1 presented

As long speculated on the internet, now has a new Leica rangefinder camera M series introduced a little surprising but also a compact camera for purists who equipped with a fixed focal length X1. A worldwide live video webcast of the presentation, however, turned to disaster: The proudly 15,000 spectators were sure only a small fraction of people interested, that the rest of the Lexica-only server timeout errors due to overloading.

Leica M9
The M9 is currently the most compact camera with a CCD image sensor in the small format (24 × 36 mm "full frame") - the package dimensions have been compared to the M8 and M8.2 not changed (139 × 37 × 80 mm). Nor is the purely manual focus, but it can be done by the rangefinder principle very accurately and conveniently, even in miserable lighting conditions. According to Leica, the 18-megapixel sensor was developed specifically for the M9, its sensitivity ranges from ISO 80 to ISO 2500 promises, Leica, even in the higher settings very low noise and finely detailed image results.

The image sensor of the M9 specially designed micro lenses come with a low refractive index are used. These are at the edges of the image center moved and adapted to the characteristics of M lenses: They should also focus oblique rays and prevent vegetating (reduction in image brightness at the edge). The current M lenses with a 6-bit encoding (retrofit) on the bayonet mount, which is scanned optically by the M9. If desired, the M9 uses this information to compensate for an inherent.

A Moiré filter (LPF) which filters out fine image detail visually, was omitted as the predecessor models, the resolution of M lenses to full capacity. Any moiré patterns are instead eliminated during digital signal processing of the camera. The camera features a new, microprocessor-controlled and silent-blade slotted shutter enables shutter speeds of up to 1/4000 second. The short flash synchronization speed of 1/180 second allows daylight flash pictures with selective sharpness. Interesting is the light measurement procedure as before the first shutter curtain of the shutter blades the mean reflected light

The 2.5 "display is the high standard of the brand is not quite fair. Are 230,000 pixels on the grid - Leica should count as the industry standard in sub-pixels, the resolution would be on level compact camera Elsewhere one finds already display with 460,000 920 000 or even sub-pixels (full VGA resolution).
The camera stores its images on SD / SDHC cards. Adobe Photoshop Light room, Apple Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows is included. Light room provides extensive functionality for managing, processing and presentation of digital images, regardless of whether they were in space-saving JPG or raw data in DNG format. In the latter remain from the image sensor with 14 bit resolution per channel color information obtained by continuously until the issue.

Top plate and bottom plate of M9 are machined from solid brass blocks, resulting in the typical Leica "haptics" contributes the remainder of the housing consists of a magnesium alloy. The M9 is now available in two versions: black painted or steel-gray, with slightly different. The suggested retail price Leica X1

The Lexica X1 is equipped with a CMOS image sensor with 12 megapixels in APS-C format, as it does in many SLR cameras are used. As an Elmarit Lens 1:2.8 / 24 mm is permanently installed, which gives the same angle of view as a 36mm lens on a film camera (slightly wide). The sensor sensitivity reaches up to ISO 3200.

As a monitor of visitors without camera (a viewfinder is sold separately) is a 2.7 "LCD is used, which dissolves 230 000 sub-pixels (QVGA). The X1 features a retractable flash that can be ignited with longer exposure times on the second shutter curtain can. more power can be used via the hot shoe of the Leica system flashes SF 24D and SF 58th aperture and shutter speed can be on dials on the top of the camera to adjust it manually, which apparently is the ring on the lens but only ornamentation.

2012 Olympus SZ-12 silver

The Olympus SZ-12 silver strongest zoom ever built for a compact camera.
The 12-megapixel SP-600UZ is equipped with a 15x wide optical zoom (28-420 mm), a 6.9 cm / 2.7 inch LCD and 1GB internal memory. The SP-600UZ is a pleasure not only to the taking, but also the subsequent viewing. Good photographs and admire present is now even better with Photo Surfing, because the new [if] software allows you to sort people (about face recognition), places and events. In addition, the cameras via HDMI to a HD TV can be connected.

Olympus SZ-12 silver Many proven technologies to ensure that every shot really succeed. Moving objects, for example, can be tracked with AF Tracking, and I-Auto analyzes the shooting situation and automatically selects the appropriate camera settings.

• brings the subject even closer than ever before.
• The large zoom range opens up many possibilities for creative photography.

Technology:

• A progressive lens design, high quality glass elements and a wealth of experience in the manufacture of optical products are the basis for this success.

Benefits:

• Prevents blur caused particularly at slow shutter speeds and focal lengths of camera shake.
• Advanced photo opportunities without having to use the flash.

• The benefits of image stabilization with high ISO settings are there on the hand, where a fast shutter speed is needed - such as when photographing moving objects. This achieves the mechanical image stabilizer has no effect.

• Dual Image Stabilizations provides both mechanical and digital image stabilization.
• There are two key technologies: digital and mechanical image stabilization. The first allows the same exposure with faster shutter speeds at higher ISO values, the other compensates for camera shake, thereby allowing slower shutter speeds.

• The mechanical image stabilization has an efficiency of up to 5 EV steps. This means that can be done even at almost 32-fold slower shutter speeds or sharp handheld photography.

• The digital image stabilizer can be used in various ways. The most common is a high ISO setting that can affect image quality due to the " Olympus SZ-12 silver".
• The effective noise reduction is a prerequisite of the successful image stabilization. Therefore comes to other technologies - such as Bright Capture and Tropic III image processor - is of central importance.
Benefits:
• Movies in HD and take a look.
• Movies on an HDTV to enjoy without any loss of quality.
• Recording playback using a TV remote control.
• Images in high-definition quality on HDMI compatible HD TVs look (1080i full HD).



• HD video has a higher resolution than standard video, making it sharper.
• The camera can be controlled using the TV remote when the TV has the HDMI CEC standard.
• High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) in selected models.
Benefits:
• Do not miss the moment: to make several shots in rapid succession.
• Performance highlights: 15.5 frames / second at 2 megapixels

• The recording frequency (burst rate) is dependent on the processor speed and varies between 2 and 15 frames per second.
• The number of shots that can be made depends on both the buffer and memory card capacity and image of the selected resolution. It varies between a few individuals and hundreds of shots - depending on the capacity of the card used.

• The maximum image resolution must be reduced under certain circumstances for a higher frame rate.

• Scenes hold the way they are perceived.
• landscape photographs with a viewing angle of 130 degrees to create.

• Easy to move the camera in the manner specified on the screen.
• Panorama shooting is automatically created.
Benefits:
• Great obtain processed images without knowledge of image processing have.

• Be creative with just one click record and funny, surprising and exciting images.

• Choose between different Magic Filters (Pop Art, Pin Hole, Sketch and fisheye).


• If Magic filter is activated, the camera automatically uses the Magic selected filters in real time. The user needs to do nothing.
