Fujifilm X-M1, a Cheaper Mirrorless Camera With Wi-Fi

A new batch of leaked photos give us a glimpse of the future: Fuji's next model of interchangeable-lens cameras, the X-M1. The new camera is rumored to be a cheaper, entry-level version of their popular X-series line, with a body-only price of around $600, according to speculation.

The M1 looks very similar to the X-E1. The biggest changes are the articulating display and lack of a viewfinder. The control scheme is pared down, as you would expect on a cheaper model, and it is said to feature WiFi connectivity.

Adobe Photoshop Creative Cloud Launched

Whether it’s delight or dismay, Adobe Photoshop Creative Cloud is now available. WPPI posted a Creative Cloud preview a while back, so today they won’t get into its benefits and drawbacks. Instead, let’s take a quick look at some of the enhancements you’ll find in Photoshop CC, which now includes features such as 3D previously only found in the Extended version of PS.

An improved algorithm delivers better and more flexible sharpening with Smart Sharpen

Intelligent upsampling for better results when increasing file sizes

Camera Shake Reduction uses image analysis to help sharpen blurry photos caused by camera shake

Liquify can be used as a smart filter

Adobe Camera Raw 8 offers same new features as in Lightroom: Advanced Healing Tool, Radial Gradient tool, and the Upright straightening tool

ACR can be used as a smart filter

To keep the install time more manageable, Bridge is not installed by default but can be downloaded from within PS CC

Improved tools (Minimum/Maximum) to tweak mask edges

Adobe acquired Behance in December, so sharing and uploading images to your Behance account can now be done from within Photoshop. (As a bonus, you get a free Behance pro site with your CC membership.) But perhaps the biggest feature to look forward to is the ability to sync your settings—including preferences, actions, brushes and more—across computers via the Creative Cloud. Unfortunately, it isn’t available as of now, but we’ll keep you posted.

Visit Adobe for more details about Photoshop CC and the other Creative Cloud apps. For pricing plans, go here. Be sure to check out promotional pricing ($9.99 a month for the first year!), which is available if you sign up by July 31st.

Nikon Coolpix S3500 Review

The Nikon Coolpix S3500 is a slim-line digital compact camera,  just 20.5mm thick. It features a 20 megapixel sensor and, despite the thin frame, sports a 7x optical zoom with lens-shift vibration reduction. Couple that with subject tracking auto-focusing,720p HD video recording and a 2.7-inch screen, and it sounds perfect for days out at events. Priced at £99.99 / $139.95, the Nikon Coolpix S3500 is available in orange, black, pink, silver, red and purple.

Photographs Push First Amendment Boundaries

I don’t know much about Richard Prince, but I like to think that he’s in the business of operating at the edges of what’s acceptable. Whether he’s pushing the boundaries or just working in the grey area I think it’s important for art to have trouble makers. I’m more comfortable thinking about blank canvasses and drawing on top of images as important for pushing boundaries that other work can be built upon than worrying about whether this is something that will be admired centuries from now. I believe the title of this piece Jonathan Blaustein wrote for me: “You Don’t Always Get Art, But We Still Need More Of It“.
So, what about the grey area when it comes to photography and privacy. This is certainly a contentious and topical issue when it comes to paparazzi chasing celebrities or people taking pictures of slaughterhouses. Recent attempts at legislation in those areas (here, here, here) suggest people would like to limit the first amendment right to photography in public places. An exhibition at the Julie Saul Gallery in Chelsea seems to be pushing the boundary of privacy and photography. Photographer Arne Svenson shot pictures of residents in a neighboring building with a telephoto lens from his own apartment across the street. In a story for the New York Times Magazine, Photography Director Kathy Ryan contemplates the artistry vs. privacy issue:

These particular pictures are problematic, even for those, like me, who overwhelmingly side with artists and journalists when it comes to questions of freedom of expression. I support the artist’s right to make and exhibit his art and feel Svenson has the right to exhibit these pictures. But if images surfaced in a gallery of my daughter in our home, shot by a photographer using a long lens without our knowledge, I wouldn’t be happy. So the question arises, is it art when it’s a photograph of someone else, but not when it’s you or your family?
(Read the rest here)

I think in the end Arne Svenson may run into “a reasonable expectation of privacy” which is what makes street photography and making pictures in public possible and taking pictures of people in their homes illegal (Note: consult a lawyer, this is just my opinion).
But, I agree with Kathy in her conclusion that “the freedoms enjoyed by artists and journalists are worth possible breaches of privacy.” Boundary pushing is good for art, we don’t always “get it”, but it allows other artists to build upon it.
