Ok I have never seen this before
Look at these stats and the images are epic…… Seitz 6×17 Digital Full Video here: http://youtu.be/A3riII7vBss Gallery Link:http://www.roundshot.ch/xml_1/internet/en/application/d149/d205/f229.cfm Instead of the common digital camera sensor which records the entire scene at once, the Seitz 6×17'' uses a scanner to literally scan the view through the lens. The end result is 160 megapixel images in a panoramic format. It does the job a bit faster than your average flatbed scanner though, recording a full-sized frame (21 250 x 7500 pixels) in two seconds. It's big, it's heavy (5 kilos if you wish to use it outside a studio) and quite silly, but it turns out huge, amazing photos – and it should, costing as it does $42 000. 160 million pixels of beauty – the only digital 6×17 camera! Super fast image capture –  300 MB of data per second!High resolution 6×17 digital images – 160 million pixelsSeitz D3 digital scan back interchangeable with Roundshot D3 cameraWorld class Schneider lenses on Seitz boards as well as Linhof or Fuji 617 lenses Easy camera control and image preview + storage with connected tablet PC computer or any 64-bit PC or Mac computer Powerful capture software for easy camera handling and Seitz raw converter […]

Do you Sync you images with the Cloud? Better read the terms – Even for private files…
Do you Sync you images with the Cloud? Better read the terms – Even for private files Worth a read if you are implementing cloud backup and storage this coming year or just want to store your private images…. So with the death of Windows Live Mesh, a service I use daily to sync my machines with work. I am on the hunt for another solution. More than likely it will be Google Drive or Microsoft Skydrive. But both are technically lacking features that Live Mesh did very well and that is an issue…like P2P syncing above and beyond storage limits. Then I come across this article – where a private cloud folder had some nude images in it and in turn his entire account was suspended and was never reopened. Thus he lost his entire account and all apps purchased etc…This is a big issue – especially these days with so much riding on each of our cloud accounts. If my Google Account was closed I would be literally screwed… Very worrisome if you are not aware it can even happen. http://wmpoweruser.com/watch-what-you-store-on-skydriveyou-may-lose-your-microsoft-life/ This is a very interesting issue for many, but maybe not so many it matters to Microsoft… It just […]

Do you take shortcuts? – this is for all of us that do not shoot everyday
Reshared post from +Brent Burzycki Do you take shortcuts? – this is for all of us that do not shoot everyday. If that is you I am curious if you tend to take shortcuts when shooting. If that is time or set or props or not paying for models or whatever you might do or not even realize you might do… Trying to enjoy a few minutes to re-edit a few older shots…I need a month off from my week off.. I guess that is what happens when you take no time off all year and then only get a week based on all your employees going out at very strategic times… or as I like to call it General Manager Murphy's Law…. I will be trying to up my game in 2013 based on what I have learned here on G+ and the fact if your going to mess around with photography why not make it better each time…. I have lacked any drive and I think many non "professionals" that do not do it lately can easily get pulled into short cuts… I am sure I will still take many… and it is better to get any shot than the perfect shot, […]

Redo for a post from yesterday
Made a few changes…. Re-Crop, changed around some settings etc… I think I agree with most that a different crop works better…. It is why I love getting input from the G+ photo community…. well actually part of me hates it but I tell that part to shut up and learn something….

Yesterday I thought +500px was totally broken
In album Yesterday I thought +500px was totally broken .. or something had gone interestingly sideways in their calculations .. or they were being gamed… as you can see from the below… these were the top most popular images….page 1 The single image below was the most popular… Nothing wrong with any of those photos..per say… but they are not what I expect to see on the front page of 500px when i go there and cry to myself that the work there is so much more epic than mine…. I thought I would make a play for the front page with this image to see what happened… http://500px.com/photo/21563031 Gladly I can report that the site is all fixed and I am back where I need to be… on page 20 or popular – vs. on the front page 🙁 – But I am also glad the issue is fixed… and actually quite impressed with myself for once getting up to 95.5 for the first time ever… 500px can be a interesting and finicky mistress when it comes to voting… and yes "its not all about the votes.. I use it for inspiration…" – Just like I read playboy for the articles… Sometimes a good ego boost is what we […]

Well here is my edit for today
As I come to the end of 2012 I am looking for some lost images that needed a lot more TLC than I knew how to give when I first shot them…. this model deserved more than the first run results…. Well they looked good back then but now when i look at them – my eye has changed greatly.. What you you all think? Also seeing many are Lightroom users – does anyone know specifically how Lightroom handles Presets – do they stack? or is each individually run on the original image? #glamour   #glamourphotography   View this post on Google+

Anyone have any suggestions on what Refrigerator to buy?
Mine just took a dump in the middle of my kitchen.. that's right… on Christmas Eve…could be slightly problematic…. Need lots of freezer space and all the cool features.. I know you tech G+ ers are all rocking the coolest Refrigerators…. Suggestions? Was looking at an LG – Like this: http://www.lg.com/us/refrigerators/lg-LFX31915ST-french-3-door-refrigerator But I think 3400 bucks might be a bit out of my range…. View this post on Google+
