Adobe doubles the price of the basic plan from $10 to $20 per month :(

Share

PetaPixel just reported that Adobe did double the fee of the Basic plan from $10/month to $20/month (see Adobe’s new pricing here).

If you like me are no fan of subscription based Adobe service check out those two alternatives:

  1. Capture One (Click here) for $299. This is a highly professional alternative and the RAW editor is famous to be the best in the world.
  2. A cheaper alterniative is Luminar 3.1 (Click here). Using our coupon code “AMB43R” you save additional $10 at checkout!

UPDATE. Adobe just said that their $10 plan is still available (Click here):

This is weird: Back-Bone Gear Ribcage Modified Sony RX0 with Micro Four Thirds mount

Share

BHphoto listed that Back-Bone Gear Ribcage Modified Sony RX0 with Micro Four Thirds mount. I have never heard of this before. Here is the press text:

The Back-Bone Gear Ribcage Modified Sony RX0 adds the option of using interchangeable lenses to the lightweight, ultra-compact Sony RX0 UHD 4K camera. The Ribcage Modified RX0 incorporates a passive MFT mount which can be switched out with the included ring to attach C-mount lenses. Use this RX0 with SLR or vintage cine-style lenses, or link the camera to a microscope, telescope, or other imaging device.

This modified RX0 includes a removable IR-cut filter and an internal filter holder for controlling possible IR contamination. This camera maintains features of the Sony RX0 like a 21MP 1″ stacked CMOS censor, 1080p60 internal recording, and UHD 4K video output via HDMI. Capture options include slow motion up to 1000 fps, shutter speeds up to 1/32000 second for crisp imaging, and Sony S-Log2 gamma for flexible post-production control. Sync and control up to five cameras using your smartphone and Bluetooth, or link to Wi-Fi to control greater than five units.

Modified to improve cooling, the Ribcage Modified RX0 includes a removable mounting plate with both 3/8″-16 and 1/4″-20 tripod threads.

Note: The modification defeats the RX0’s waterproof seal. The Ribcage Sony RX0 is not waterproof.

Thanks to the anonymous tipster!

New Panasonic patent discloses a 18mm f/4.0 APS-C lens…for L-mount or MFT?

Share

Hi-lows-note spotted a new patent from Panasonic. It describes the optical construction of a new 18mm f/4.0 lens. This is designed to cover the APS-C area. It’s unclear if this means the lens is for L-mount or if this is still designed for MFT.

Some time ago Panasonic stated they have no interest in making APS-C lenses for L-mount because they already are heavily invested in MFT (Source: L-rumors.com).
