W lipcowym teście lustrzanek prezentowaliśmy niewielki aparat Olympusa (E-410), wyposażony w system podglądu na żywo Live View. Nieco wyższa wersja tego niedrogiego modelu SLR zyskała kolejną ważną funkcję: stabilizator obrazu.

Na początku Avid Liquid 7.2 wydaje się programem o intuicyjnej obsłudze. Po trwającej dłuższy czas instalacji i pierwszym uruchomieniu wrażenie to jednak stopniowo zanika.
Koncern Adobe udostępnił nowe wydania aplikacji dla niezaawansowanych grafików i wideoedytorów. Nowe wersje narzędzi Photoshop Elements (oznaczona numerem 6.0) i Premiere Elements (4.0) po raz pierwszy dostępne są w polskich edycjach językowych.

Z programami do generowania fraktalowych krajobrazów spotkałem się dawno temu, jeszcze za czasów użytkowania Amigi 500 wyposażonej w 1MB pamięci RAM. Praca na aplikacji o nazwie Scenery Animator dostarczała mi niezapomnianych wrażeń. Można do nich było zaliczyć także czas generowania obrazu, który w zależności od skomplikowania i rozdzielczości sceny, mógł trwać od kilkunastu minut do kilkunastu godzin. Często zdarzało się tak, że celem przeliczenia danej sceny zostawiało się na noc włączony komputer, a nad ranem odkrywało się jedynie komunikat "out of memory". Nie ukrywam, że nieco mnie to zniechęciło do dalszej eksploracji tego fascynującego tematu i zgodnie z hiszpańskim powiedzeniem "maniana", studiowanie go odłożyłem do nieokreślonej przyszłości.
