On a photography forum you must pick a photograph right?

Like the title says Nikon is going EVIL, probably before March 2011.
If you think I'm joking read this link
This what the rumours say about the new system. link
When will the rest go EVIL as well?

I think it's important for some though and certainly for the iPhone it's important to keep his trendy image.So do functional items need to have an aesthetic appeal? Not need, but why not. It does no harm to enjoy a piece of fine engineering for what it is.
I actually like the design but I'm sure there are more like you John that don't like it, too bad they don't make different models.

I've said that I hoped that the video calling off the iPhone 4 could go over 3G and to other applications, Apple's FaceTime didn't provide that but Fring brought out an app that can link
They did it really fast btw

The problem with the free tools is that they rely on your eyes and that's not perfect but it's indeed better than nothing.There are several free tools that do a perfectly good job, if not quite as good as the best paid-for ones.

I used to did it by eye but after I used a hardware tool for the calibration I saw a shift in colours and contrast which did match the prints better.
And lets be honest £60 for getting better matching colours on your screen is nothing compared to the price of the camera, lenses and rest of the camera equipment.

But it's fun to see someone making it with a brand of camera that you own, it works a bit inspiring maybe, at least that are my feelings.Can't see that it matters at all very much, it is the photograph that matters.

Re the monitor- it's a macbook and the colour on pics taken by my compact fuji is lovely - even if it is only a cheap camera, so I don't think the monitor's badly adjusted.
You would be surprised, only the specialized monitors come from the factory quite well calibrated but it's know from LCD that the colours need to settle so there is quite some difference between a brand new screen and one that has some hours under his belt so even those you need to calibrate monthly to keep your colours accurate.

You can get a basic calibration device for your screen for around £60
I didn't thought it would make a big difference either but it does.
If you want your colours to be spot on you can get one of these but you need to shoot in RAW though I believe. link

Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 does process PEF (ie RAW) files. When you open a PEF file it runs Adobe Camera Raw for you. So I would think that Photoshop 7 should also handle them???
Yes and no.Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 does process PEF (ie RAW) files. When you open a PEF file it runs Adobe Camera Raw for you. So I would think that Photoshop 7 should also handle them???
PEF isn't actually PEF, there are slight variation of them between camera models so the PEF from the K100D is different than the PEF of the K20D.
That means Adobe camera raw need to support the PEF of that camera model.
Like you show in the comment after that you will see you need Photoshop CS2 to run that Adobe camera RAW needed for the PEF of that caemra so photoshop 7 won't do

Sigma has solved this problem by placing a filter in the lens mount on the camera so no dust can go inside the body to begin with.
It could be the new Nikon might use an electronic shutter so that might explain the special cover to protect the sensor.
