  • Kodak unveils the Printomatic: A point-and-shoot ‘instant print’ camera

    There’s a new instant camera in town. Revealed by Kodak earlier today, the Printomatic is a point-and-shoot ‘instant print’ digital camera: meaning the photos it captures with its 10MP sensor are instantly printed out of the side of the camera Polaroid-style while you go on shooting.

    Kodak is calling it “the ideal all-in-one solution for capturing and sharing vibrant prints instantly.”

    To call the Printomatic a ‘no-frills’ camera is almost an understatement. Available in Gray or Yellow for just $ 70, the 10MP shooter comes with a built-in Li-ion battery, flash, low-battery indicator, print indicator, microSD card slot, and two pictures modes: vibrant color or black & white. In other words, it’s as close to fully automatic as you’re going to get.

    The appeal of the camera, at least according to Kodak, is in its simplicity.

    “The KODAK PRINTOMATIC is a contemporary camera with a wonderful balance of digital and analog technology,” Steven Overman, Kodak’s Chief Marketing Officer, said in a statement. “It’s an accessible device for anybody who wants to create a lasting memory in a tangible, colorful way.”

    Each photo is printed at 2×3-inches on Kodak’s ZINK (stands for “Zero Ink”) Photo Paper, which means it comes out of the camera water-resistant, tear resistant and adhesive-backed.

    The camera will be available online and in stores starting “late September” for $ 70, and comes with a 10-pack of ZINK Photo Paper included. ZINK refills are available online in 20 and 50 packs for $ 9 and $ 20, respectively. To learn more about the Printomatic, head over to the Kodak website.

  • Hasselblad drops H6D-50c price again, now $11,000 off original price

    This past June, Hasselblad dropped the price of the 50MP medium format H6D-50c by a whopping 30% from an original price of $ 25,995 to just $ 17,995. But if that’s not enough, Hasselblad told us this morning that they’re dropping the price even further, from the current $ 17,995 all the way to $ 14,995 (€11,900 // £10,800 )—that’s $ 11,000 off the original retail price.

    This new price isn’t being reflected through online retailers yet—Hasselblad still has the model listed at June’s $ 17,995 on Amazon, for example—but the official announcement went live this morning so we’ll expect to see that change take effect soon.

    As with the last price drop, there’s no indication of whether or not this ‘special promotion’ is temporary, but if you’ve been looking to make the jump into medium format, now is as affordable a time as ever.

  • UN seeks worldwide drone registry to pave way for global standards

    The United Nations has revealed a controversial proposal to create a worldwide drone registry that would require UAV owners around the globe to register their details in a single unified database. The registry would, in an ideal situation, serve as a single database through which government and law enforcement officials in many countries could access drone operator information from a central location.

    The proposal was recently detailed by Reuters, which reports that the plan was put forth by the UN agency International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). The agency intends to hold a symposium next week to discuss drone-related matters, though details about this proposal are still largely absent.

    Central to the goal behind a single global registry is the ability to create standardized regulations that could be adopted by many countries. Such standardization would relieve the burden drone makers currently face over creating devices that meet the requirements of different markets. Whether the ICAO would operate the database isn’t clear.

    Talking about this during an interview with Reuters last week, ICAO air navigation bureau director Stephen Creamer explained that drone manufacturers “are worried that Europe might create one set of standards, United States might do a second and China might do a third. And they’ve got to build a drone differently in these different environments.”

    Whether any given country would be willing to adopt the proposed registry and accompanying global regulations is yet to be seen. Compounding potential problems may be backlash from some consumers who are resistant to drone registries, the personal information they require, and the associated fees. Earlier this year, for example, a legal case brought against the FAA resulted in its Registration Rule being struck down for model aircraft.

  • The Last Portrait: A moving tribute to a friend and neighbor

    Photographer Jared Polin of Fro Knows Photo recently put together an incredibly personal photo story—a project he’s calling “one of the most powerful photo/video projects we’ve ever done.” The story features Arty, Jared’s neighbor of several years who was diagnosed with terminal cancer.

    For Jared, Arty’s diagnosis struck a very personal note.

    “When someone is diagnosed with cancer, it reminds me of my mom,” he explains in the video. “Because she passed away from cancer and I dealt with it in a different way from a lot of people, I chose to hide behind the camera.”

    He told his mom’s story as a way to “show the good with the bad,” and as he got to know Arty and connect with him, Jared saw an opportunity to tell another story—to capture this man’s life for his friends, his family, and even complete strangers because almost everybody has been touched by this disease in some form or fashion. The video above and the photographs below were Jared’s way of capturing Arty, of writing down his personality in pixels and ink.

    $ (document).ready(function() { SampleGalleryV2({“containerId”:”embeddedSampleGallery_3977859052″,”galleryId”:”3977859052″,”isEmbeddedWidget”:true,”standalone”:false,”selectedImageIndex”:0,”startInCommentsView”:false,”isMobile”:false}) });

    Arty passed away shortly after the filming of this video. If this story moved you, or if you think it will touch a loved one or friend, please be sure to share it with them. And if you’d like to make a donation to help support the fight against cancer in Arty’s name, click here.

  • Sigma can install a rear-mounted filter holder on your Canon 14mm F1.8 Art lens

    Lens manufacturer Sigma has announced an interesting new service: users of the company’s Canon mount 14mm F1.8 DG HSM Art lens can now pay the company to fit a rear mount filter holder onto their lens. The FHR-11 filter holder is designed to allow gel filters to be held over the rear element of the lens so photographers can enjoy “more freedom of expression.”

    Those who want to fit the holder themselves can buy it without the installation service, but keep in mind that damage caused by erroneous fitting will not be covered by the lens’ warranty. Sigma says the time the fitting will take depends on local services, but in Japan users are being told to expect the lens to be away for a week.

    In the UK, the FHR-11 on its own costs £35 (~$ 45 USD), while the filter+install service costs £60 (~$ 80 USD). Sigma USA has yet to release official US pricing. For more information see the Sigma website.

  • A Few Steps Higher: 14 Unusually Artistic Modern Staircase Designs

    [ By SA Rogers in Design & Fixtures & Interiors. ]

    Stairs are inherently utilitarian, but some architects choose to really step up their interiors with highly sculptural designs that make you want to walk up and down a bunch of times. Cantilevered creations, floating stairs, spirals made of stone and zig-zagging graphic designs add both literal and figurative movement to these apartments, museums, offices and shops.

    Stone and Wire in London by Groupwork + Amin Taha

    During the completion of a renovation on a terraced house in central London dating to the 1950s, Groupwork + Amin Taha created a gorgeous centerpiece with this stone staircase, spiraling around a central cylinder-shaped wire cage, which acts as a balustrade. The load-bearing cantilevered travertine staircase extends from the basement to a skylight in the apartment’s roof.

    Atrium Stairs at Moscow’s Dominion Office Building by Zaha Hadid

    There’s something very futuristic-looking about the stark, graphic black-and-white stairs zig-zagging through the atrium of Zaha Hadid’s ‘Dominion Office Building.’ Each level is slightly offset from the next, producing a disorienting effect when looking down at the stairs from the edge of any of the balconies.

    Mirrored Staircase at Kaleidoscope House by Paul Raff Studio

    Sometimes, all it takes is a little creativity to produce a stunning effect, rather than a large space and expensive materials. The staircase ascending through Paul Raff Studio’s Kaleidoscope House features mirrored side panels on the balustrade which continue onto the landings of each level, reflecting each other so you can’t quite tell what’s real and what’s reflection. This piece is the heart of the home’s ‘kaleidoscope effect.’

    Plywood Puzzle Stairs in London House by Tsuruta Architects

    This staircase in a London Home renovated by Tsuruta Architects consists of nearly 2,000 plywood pieces slotted together like a puzzle. Replacing a larger staircase with a more compact design, this new creation connects all four stories without visually obstructing the transitional spaces between them, allowing light to filter through.

    Smooth Staircase at Singapore Apple Store by Foster + Partners

    It’s not unusual for Apple stores in larger cities to function as showcases for architecture nearly as much as they do for electronics. In this case, internationally renowned firm Foster + Partners augmented “the greenest Apple space yet” with two hand-carved spiraling staircases made of Italian Castagna Stone. The architects describe them as “warm and beautifully sculpted bookends” in an “homage to craftsmanship and materiality.”
