In this recurring column, we highlight a few items we've run across that don't merit a full story of their own but are interesting enough to bring to your attention (with more than 140 characters). This time we look at Lighting 103, Google's RAISR technology, 72 copyright law answers and burst mode in Lightroom's camera.
- Strobist David Hobby has published Lighting 103: Introduction. "Our flashes are calibrated to produce white light," he writes. "But in the real world, white light is a rarity."
- In Saving You Bandwidth Through Machine Learning, Google+ product manager John Nack shows off the company's RAISR image compression technology which can use "75 percent less bandwidth per image."
- Attorney Brendan Conley Answers to 72 Questions About Copyright Law for Photographers. It's not his field actually but he "wanted to provide a reference guide that people could turn to for accurate information." Nice reference section, too.
- In Burst Capture on Lightroom Mobile on iPhone, Julieanne Kost points out Lightroom's camera has a burst mode when you use the volume key as the shutter.
We also updated our Calendar late yesterday and there's always more to come! Meanwhile, please support our efforts...
