  • Focal length: 10.35-23.17
  • F-number: 4.12

Sony Q1 financial report: 10% jump in profits and +20% in camera sales!

Sony just published the full Q1 financial report. The company as a whole reported an impressive 10% increase in profits, mainly due to increased revenues in gaming and imaging. The good news is that Sony also sold 20% more cameras and camcorders than last year!
And I am sure that with the future launch of new cameras such as the A1II, A7V, and hopefully the A7sIV, the numbers will go even higher!

Shutter 4 for iOS: improved connectivity and UI

Shutter, a popular iOS remote control, has recently been updated with a new interface, additional camera controls, and improved reliability.

Version 4 is available for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. It is a free upgrade for all existing Shutter users.

What’s New

The entire core has been rewritten to better support modern cameras, improve speed and reliability. Shutter gains new video controls, exposure assist tools (zebra, false color, RGB histogram), more intuitive focus options, and a much faster focus bracketing experience.

New Interface

Beautiful redesign that works well for both vertical and horizontal shots. It allows photographers to easily combine timed BULB exposures, intervalometer, exposure bracketing, and focus bracketing for the best results, no matter the subject.

Exposure Assist Tools

Properly expose all your photos and videos using advanced tools like histograms, zebra stripes, or false color.

Focus Bracketing

Following user feedback, focus bracketing has been rewritten to speed up landscape and macro workflows. Simply select the step size, near and far focus limits, and Shutter will do the rest.
You can combine focus bracketing with exposure bracketing for extremely detailed results, and with a self-timer to eliminate camera shake.

Try the new version

The new Shutter is available for free to all existing subscribers. New users can test the app for free for 7 days, then choose between a $25/year subscription or a $65 lifetime option.

Download from the App Store or learn more about Shutter.
