Tsuyoshi Kikukawa and his former vice-president Hisashi Mori who has also been arrested, were only forced out of the company after ex-CEO Michael Woodford spoke out, saying he was removed for uncovering their actions. Company auditor Hideo Yamada and four bankers connected to the cover-up of billions of dollars-worth of investment losses were also arrested. (from Reuters)

  • Fujifilm X10 firmware: Appears not to fix ‘white orbs’

    fujifilm_x10.png

    We’ve been taking a look at Fujifilm’s recently released firmware update for the X10, which was designed to reduce the much-discussed ‘white orbs’ blooming effect.

Sadly, all the indications from our studio and real-world shooting so far are that the update appears to have very little effect on the appearance or intensity of these artefacts.
