Travel Tripod Re-invented: Why I’m backing their Kickstarter?
Every now and then a company does something that makes you go wow!!! Why hasn't that been done before? Take Dyson for example, they re-invented the Vacuum Cleaner and the Fan. Very household items that we would be using the same crappy bag and cleaning the blades of the fans, if that company hasn't gone and questioned. Why? I love Peak Design for the same reasons. They do things that bigger companies won't because they just want your money!! Peak Design has been known for their Kickstarter campaigns that have gone far and beyond any Kickstarter in the past.

Personalise Your X-Series Camera (X-T3) with these Settings
Happy New Year reader (well depends when you are reading this)!! it was the start of new year when I published this. So I hope you are having a great year.

So did I!! I bought an Fujifilm X-T3 which was on sale after Christmas and I had my eye on it for quite sometime. Hence I was keen to setup this camera with my own preferences. But this time I decided to document it as a video which you can watch on my YouTube channel.

AI Sky Enhancer – Skylum Luminar
Skylum recently released an update to its Luminar 2018 editing software which uses AI (Artificial Intelligence) to enhance the sky in any image that has sky (of course). It a FREE update that is available to all its current users who have Luminar 2018. So I decided to put this new slider to a test. Found a few images with different kinds of sky on my computer and loaded them up in Luminar 2018 to put this new feature to the test. To my surprise it works pretty well and its very clever in terms of detecting where the sky is and only enhancing it. Try the slider...
