Photoshop World - 2008

Doug Sahlin| April 9, 2008 8:56 pm

Recently I attended Photoshop World 2008, which was held at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. When I first heard that Photoshop World would be in Orlando, which is 45 minutes from my home, I knew I had to attend. I’ve been to many conferences before, but never to Photoshop World. I was not disappointed. The conference was first rate.

Lensbaby 3G Product Review

Doug Sahlin| February 1, 2008 5:02 pm

The Lensbaby is now in its 3rd iteration. The original Lensbaby, which is still available at www.lensbabies.com, is a single element non-coated glass lens, with a focal length of about 50 mm, which is attached to the lens mount with a rubber bellows. To change the f/stop for the lens, you replace the aperture disk, which is held in place by a rubber washer. Focus is achieved by pulling the outer ring of the lens toward you. You can then change the sweet spot of focus by tilting the outer ring. The available apertures for the Original Lensbaby are: f/2.8, f/4, f5.6, and f/8.
