Adobe Reports Record Revenue. Aurora HDR 2018 reviews.

Share

In the photography software world Adobe has a near monopoly. And they just reported they record quarterly revenue of $1.84 billion in its third quarter of fiscal year 2017. This is 26 percent year-over-year revenue growth (Full report here).

One of the smaller players trying somehow to compete with Adobe is Macphun. They just released the new Aurora HDR (preorder here) which comes for both Mac and Windows. You might give it a chance if you want to be “Adobe free”. Here are a few reviews of the new software:

Olympus E-M10 Mark III Unboxing

Share

Geekanoids unboxed the new E-m10III. And the French site Focus Numerique (google translation) posted their E-M10III review. This is their Pros and Cons List:

And there is also a review at Photographyblog:

While E-M10 Mark II owners won’t be rushing to upgrade (unless you really, really want 4K video), the new Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark III is a solid, if rather unexciting, update of a camera design that a lot of people love, ourselves included, all at a very competitive price-point in today’s market. Highly Recommended!

Preorders:
Silver or Black E-M10III at GetOlympus, BHphoto, Adorama and Amazon. In Eu at WexUK and ParkUK.
E-M10III with kit lens at GetOlympus, BHphoto, Adorama and Amazon.
Special E-M10III superkit at Amazon and Adorama.
CS-51B Body Jacket for the E-M10III at BHphoto.

Chris Eyre Walker on Lenin Peak (7134m) in Kyrgyzstan with his E-M1II

Share

Chris Eyre Walker just sent me this:

I recently spent 3 weeks on assignment for Olympus AU attempting to summit Lenin Peak (7134m) in Kyrgyzstan. My goal: find out if the E-M1 Mark II would perform at high altitude and in extreme weather conditions and if it would make for a suitable expedition camera to extreme environments.

(entirely filmed on the E-M1 Mark II and with the 12-100mm f/4 IS PRO)
