A few weeks ago Rich visited the factory in Chonburi, Thailand, where the Sony A9 is manufactured. He learnt a lot about the factory and how the A9 is built, and was even allowed to film some of the production line.

Dear SAR readers, I wish you all a Happy Walk into the New Year :)

For 2018 my photography wishes are:
– To see no more Iceland pictures all over the social network and photographers website. Please, let’s give Iceland some peace!
– Less cat, unboxing, boxes, gear pictures
– Post less and better pictures

I will spend the night busy testing the new Laowa 15mm FE and Voigtlander 40mm FE. Check out my Instagram channel to see how these do perform.

This one shot today with the Laowa 15mm FE:

Best tools for the post process of digital photos – an overview by Per Kylberg

Best tools for the post process of digital photos – an overview
Per Kylberg

Heavily debated and a frustration to many – here is a walk-through of the best alternatives. My background is graphic design, gradually evolving into an IT position afor “virtual systems”. From 1982 I have been evaluting, using, developing systems in theese areas.
The starting point is always the output, end product, usage of result. In my case the ambition is a large, beautiful pring that can hang on the wall for years and still be interesting! Systems should also support a process and/or enable a better process.
Photo creation can be separated into two sub processes: image capture and post processing/digital darkroom. “Capture” will take you through about 60% of the total process. Post processing is 40% of the final result. (In terms of creative effort). My post processing experience stems from 1966 – my first wet darkroom. Digital systems will never be as magicly creative as the darkroom experience, but takes a lot less time to learn and to execute.
