I managed to write 96 postings to my photoblog Light Scrape during the summer vacation. Not bad. Now, it remains to be seen whether I can sustain interest in photography after the vacation. Perhaps. In fact, as my Nokia E90 is has a not too bad camera, I may continue at least posting one posting per day, at least I'll try.

Impact analysis of the micro four thirds (4/3) announcement -- Comment()
RAWsumer has a good analysis of the Olympus/Panasonic micro 4/3 standard announcement. (I'll use the mFT abreviation, although MFT and m43 could be used as well.) The lens sizes will be interesting to see. I hope there will be "pocketable" offerings, then mFT would be a nice stepping stone from a compact. A couple of wide/normal fixed (bright) lenses would be good to have. The current Olympus 4/3 "pancake" lens is not so impressive. And I sure hope Olympus and Panasonic will announce something soon, otherwise what was the point of the standard announcement.

The RAW (raw?) deal -- Comment()
David Rasnake wrote well about the multiplicity of different raw formats, and the loss of the promise of open standards: "Raw files are simply what they are - raw (common, lowercase adjective) image data - and in light of few prospects for consolidation out there on the horizon, I don't see that changing back anytime soon." So, the case of RAW was a great opporturnity missed. There is only raw.
