damn I can't find the link but I just read it. IBM never promised to hit 3ghz in the time frame apple promised too. Can you show me where IBM made this statement? In fact if I recall correctly from the article IBM was not real happy when APPLE made that promise and told them basically we will try but no promises. Man I just read it yesterday. There are just to many Mac news sites.
Yeah I know about that one. it was for Irix and Solaris. I used it on both. I was only refering to the OS X carbon one. But I was wrong about that too. The cool thing about the Irix version is that wouldn't it have had to have been 64 bit to run on the r5000 mips chip? (or r4xxx chips)
No there is not a unix version of Photoshop. Photoshop is a carbon app not a cocoa app. Adobe is pretty not happy about the rewrite coming to make it work on intel Macs because there are no Carbon APi's for Intel OS X.
and Havning had to use Filmgimp now Cinepaint http://www.cinepaint.org/ (lol and the status of that link should tell you something. I can tell you that having used photoshop since version 2.0 that gimp sucks to use. I mean jesus there is not even a keyboard short cut to change the brush size. (maybe now but in 2003 I couldn't find it nor was one listed in the docs.) I mean come on how basic a thing is that? OK mark me a troll.
Do you want to see what I came up with just by bluring and sharpening and doing some levels adjustments? Its not as good but its nearly as good. and from just the pixelated image. IF I had access to the original image and proper resizing tools I would be even better.
You can find my email on my website and I will email it to you. please for the love of god do not slashdot me people.
Exactly, but if you did not originally capture those multiple samples and those samples have to do more then contain temporal offset. If the offset frames are of the same resolution how can they add resolution (or more detail). I could very well be missing something here but a temporal offset is not going to allow you to zoom into the window and read the sticky note on the table. I could see how it might allow you do affect blurs and focus but that is not the type of detail I am thinking of.
Once you have the comp in done in your image editor with as little pixel and grain distortions as possible. Try the following. Note this does require a $5000 set of plugins http://www.thefoundry.co.uk/ Furnace (no not the After deffects set) and the $5000 program them run in. http://www.eyeonline.com/ or http://www.apple.com/shakehttp://www.d2software.com/ (and yes a few others in the $100k+ range) In fact I might even do the whole comp in my film compositor with the use of some other tools. Anyway. Comp elements use historgram matching to match elements in the shot that should have the same color ranges. (You could do a color overlay in PS.) Ok now you have a good comp with good edges or edge blending and light wraps. You completely degrain the shot with furnace (each element seperatly degrained) You then regrain the shot as a whole. degraining and regraining work on all three color plates seperatly so when you regrain the shot it should be adding basically another blending of the of the colors making them uniform to what the original piece of film would have been. Now you take that file and do a film out of that. That is a very simlified break down of the technique. Many of the steps for each step are left out. My basic assumption is that the software looks for irregularities in the pixels deformations, areas of transition, and color offsets in the comp. I would love to go up against this software. (not that I would win but it would be fun to try as long as someone else is paying for the film outs and scans:-).) OH and if your source and destination or supposed to be film you probably want a drum scan not a CCD scan.
Yeah we call this vetorization. It is how we retime scenes with programs like The Foundry's Kronos and revisions Twixtor. This technology also exist for still photography thru genuin fractals and another one by extensis (or who ever they are now) Called pxlscale or something. These are also called optical flow by some programs. Shake and Pixel farm use this term. Any way motion estimation will not give you more resolution for a still shot period. What it will do is create tweens for retimed shots by analyzing where a pixel should move to for frames that do not exist.
I would buy the full keyboard. I do graphics and I used so many different programs that unless its a short cut I use all the time I just can not remember them all. So if this thing automatically updated as I switched between apps I would be in freaking heaven. My question would be, It would be up to the software maker to make there app display on the keyboard right? I already am using a keyboard made for final cut pro. I don't know. I would buy this thing yesterday if does the above.
Hmmm Does somebody make you watch these movies? Do I need to call 911 and have police sent to recue you from this hostage taker? So since NO ONE makes you watch anything disney makes why the f do you care what they do or how they do it? If you don't like it don't watch it. Let it go.
the only input disney had on the pixar movies was the check. The stories where all pixar(well chosen by pixar) Disney did not write any of those movies they just distributed them.
I don't know if that matters but maybe because they can say they are selling you an upgrade to a previous version of the os that came with the system. I have no idea though actually
Actually its not the same. TV broadcast use advertising to pay for producion. Some ad fees go back to the producers and some ad time is left for the local station. In Radio all the ad money goes to the station. Radio is a means to promote music so people will buy an album or song or whatever. TV is the final product.
Yeah the Imacon, and Phaseone single capture backs rock. But like you stated they cost a fortune and there imaging area is much larger then 35mm digital. Personally when I can I still shoot film and get PMT (aka)Drum scans. You just get way better quality color depth and resolution. But it is also nice to not have to wait to get the bracket back from the lab when the deadline is yesterday.
AgI would be like Uh 1802 for its first use as a photo sensitive material. It may be one of the salts but it is not required salt.
The silver halide is formed through the reaction of a halide and ammoniacal silver nitrate, in a dilute (approximately 1.5 percent) solution of gelatin at a temperature between 45 and 70 C. The halide and the silver solutions may be added to the gelatin together, in what is termed a double-jet process, or separately (single-jet), in which case the halide is added first followed by the silver nitrate solution. The concentration of gelatin, the temperature, the concentrations of the two solutions and the rates of addition are important factors in determining both the average size and the size-distribution of the dispersion of silver halide and all must be carefully controlled.
Well you are sorta of right and a lot wrong but what would I know I'm just a professional photographer. I pretty much ONLY use 4x5 but that does not mean I always shoot film. Sometimes I shoot film some times I used a Phaseone FX http://www.phaseone.com./ I can produce a 540M files from that back. Most product and still life photography is done with mono rail cameras (4x5 2x3 some still even 8x10) http://sinarbron.com/sinar/conventional/cameras.ph p
I really don't think hard core documentary photographers will be giving up there leicas anytime soon. Most high end fashion photography is still done film. I could go into why but meh. The most common camera among the top guys that do fashion and people is probably the Mamiya RZ67. THERE IS A HUGE differnce between the quality of single capture 35mm SLR's and film. WHY? because film uses 3 layers of dye to caputure complete plates where as digital slrs have a stocastic pater of pixels. So the camera has to MAKE SHIT UP. 2/3 of every color from a DSLR is made up and personally I can see it. I do see it almost everyday. For many things its acceptable but acceptable does not make it better. Think about this. Hightend video cameras have 3 ccds to capture 3 full plates of color. A 4:4:4 3 ccd 1080P HDcam will produce a WAY better image then a DSLR its just smaller and WAY WAY MORE EXPENSIVE. Oh and god don't get me started on cmos. Lets just say this, there are no highend cmos cameras (no a cannon is not highend. Click the Phaseone link above) Persoanly I can't stand pamatures like you. I'll take the uniformed guy over you anyday. You probably don't even know what my nick means. OK that was a troll I admit it.
No the first use power for macs came with the first PPC systems. I still have my lowly Power mac 7100/66 with a killer 2meg video card and hold on, 32megs or ram.
That is just something I have never understood here. OK so the post a dupe story. How does this affect anyone so negatively that they need to whine about it? OMG your life is over you spent 15 seconds looking at a dupe story. Then you wasted 2 minutes whining about it. Ugh.
Umm nice troll, That would be buy seats on the soyus because it cheaper to fly then the shuttle, which is still grounded(whole other issue). Did you read the story you linked too? The ISS was almost put completely on hold because Russian could not afford to build the pieces of the ISS they where committed to build. I am not saying that other countries are not making HUGE strides in space but where did you get this whole notion of we are broke as the reason for that comment? I mean here is NASA's budget and operating plan for 2006 http://www.nasa.gov/about/budget/ Having a 16 billion dollar budget doesn't sound broke to me. (yes the U.S. has a huge amount of dept and that sucks for us, Bush sucks.) Maybe its not enough to do all the thing they want to do because of cutbacks but I am not that well informed on that subject. Oh here is a link to the Russian financial issue that put the whole ISS in jeopardy though

UH cause there is not Linux for PPC? HELLO? I am not a big linux guy but Geetoo fedora yellow dog and a few others I am pretty sure all run on PPC.

uh the solaris and irix? I would think so. But the OS X one is not.
