I had talked about Canon celebrating their birthday by unveiling a new camera and they did. Canons new camera is called the 1D Mark 4. It is a 16 mega pixel camera and can do 10 frames per second which is really fast considering most camera do 3 fps. In addition to that the 1D mark 4 bosts a incredible iso form 50- 105,400 which is insane. This camera also does video, its a pritty amazing camera. Here is a link to the whole story and specs on the camera PDN
Apples magic mouse is kinda cool its wireless and has a seamless touch surface like on the iphone. Also it has a laser tracking engine, sounds complicated, it just means its more sensitive on more surfaces. I haven’t used this mouse but I’m kinda interested to see if it makes photoshop easier or harder. Read more here at Apple
I went to the fair this past weekend it was the last day of the fair I was shooting for a feature for photojournalism. I got to talk to a lot of interesting people and got some good pictures.
portraiture low key shoot tomorrow, low key photography is when most of your subject or set is black. It gives your subject mater a mysterious feel. I am really siked about this shoot I think it should go well.
Canon is throwing a big celebration to celebrate 50 years of camera making. This info comes from Canon Australia The event on the 20th of October in Australia is to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Canon SLR’s. I can’t think of a better way to start of 51 than with a new camera. I think that this is interesting because on http://www.canonrumors.com/ they have rumors speculating the release of two new cameras but the one everyone is talking about is 1d mark 4, this next week might be pretty exciting for canon users !
