So I’m pleased to announce our new “Post to Facebook” feature that we released today. You might say to yourself, “well, duh!” And I would nod my head in agreement. It’s an obvious piece of functionality. But we’ve done it slightly differently than other implementations that I’ve seen.

Rob Galbraith DPI: Upcoming firmware for 5D Mark II will include 24fps, 25fps video capture options
Having arrived at the Chimi Lakhang monastery in Bumthang, I was glad to find two young novices lighting candle lamps, and asked them to pose in a certain way to take advantage of the light coming through the rather grimy window. It took quite a while to have them just right where I wanted, but as I was giving hand signals for minor adjustments in the novices’ stance, a bunch of European tourists had entered the room. Without a glance at my direction, or asking for permission, or even a smile of acknowledgment, out came a motley collection of cameras, ranging from DSLRs to compacts, and a paparazzi frenzy ensued with hundreds of flashes bathing the room in an ethereal light.

Adobe Lightroom 3 Beta – A First Look
Adobe’s release of Lightroom 3 as a public beta is not the first time that the company has used this technique, nor is it likely to be the last. It has turned out to be a very canny marketing strategy as well as a means of getting wide-ranging user input into a new product’s features and robustness.

Top Ten iPhone Apps for Photographers
Granted, this isn’t such a terrible thing. We’ve spent many fun hours adding vignettes and blurred backgrounds to the spontaneous on-the-street images we captured with our iPhone’s 2-megapixel camera. (So the iPhone 3Gs has a 3MP camera. Big whoop.)
After a while though, these apps get kind of boring and don’t do a lot to help your career as a photographer. There are, however, a few photo apps out there that seem to have the pro in mind. We’ve chosen the cream of the crop in our “Top Ten iPhone Apps for Photographers” list below.

MarsEdit 2.4 – Red Sweater Blog
As an indie software developer, one of the biggest challenges I face is keeping a schedule. A real schedule that means I’ll actually ship software every so often. When you work for somebody else, there’s usually somebody in charge of making sure that you stick to a schedule. These people usually have little concern for […]

MarsEdit 2.4 is available today and features a few … cookies … that you might enjoy. In particular, this release fixes bugs, fine-tunes a lot of behaviors that have been bugging me for ages, and takes support for the increasingly popular SquareSpace to a higher level.

NPPA Launches Free iPhone Application On Apple's iTunes
“With this new access point, our members can get the best industry news while they’re on the go, and we can also get visual journalism into the spotlight beyond just the industry’s insiders. Apple’s App Store obviously has tremendous exposure, especially in the photography category, and I think this will open up visual journalism to a whole new audience.”

ColoRotate
My colleagues and I developed ColoRotate because, while color is
inherently three-dimensional, all color pickers were flat. From the
feedback we received during beta testing, it seems that those who
engage in computer color selection and design also felt that vacuum.
They found some features of ColoRotate especially appealing, such as
gaining more control over foreground and background colors through
fine-tuning with sliders, and easily creating meaningful palettes.
