The Company Behind RealPlayer Wants to Turn Your Photos Into Home Movies

The Company Behind RealPlayer Wants to Turn Your Photos Into Home Movies Whether you’re old enough to remember Super 8 movies or you obsessively record your life 24/7 with an iPhone 6 , you know that taking the pictures is the easy part. The hard part is getting them into a format where they’re easy to share. Most of the time, they never leave the device you used to capture them.  RealNetworks — yes, the guys behind the Rhapsody music service and RealPlayer video software — have a quick-and-easy solution for this conundrum: the RealTimes app, which is available in free and paid versions. Every picture tells a story RealTimes can take the photos and videos stored on your iPhone , Android handset, or Windows PC and instantly create montages on the fly, complete with Instagram-like filters, transition effects, and music. (The Mac OS X version was still in beta at publication time.) RealTimes automatically ignores duplicate or blurry photos and zero...

STORY HIGHLIGHTS Out of the Phone is the first publisher to focus on mobile photography exclusively A new anthology highlights 100 of the best Instagram pictures of 2014 Founder Pierre Le Govic aims to showcase both amateur and professional photographers http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/dam/assets/141210113941-out-of-the-phone-flett-horizontal-gallery.jpg (CNN)  -- Gone are the days of the grainy camera phone images with the resolution of a poor imitation Monet. Today's smartphone cameras are so advanced that mobile photography is becoming an art form in its own right, turning photo-sharing apps like Instagram into portable galleries for amateur photographers, and professionals like street style photographer  Tommy Ton  and chief official White House photographer  Pete Souza . "You have the dark room in your pocket," says Pierre Le Govic, the Paris-based founder of  Out of the Phone , the world's first publishing house dedicated t...

World’s First Review / Time Lapse & Test Shoot With Canons 50 Megapixel 5DS & 5DS R Canon  Mega Pixel War is on and Canon comes with a bang. Canon has finally released it’s 50.6 Mega Pixel monster EOS 5DS and EOS 5DS-R DSLRs. The outstanding sensors in these cameras bring the feel of medium format camera in an EF mount DSLRs in terms of Quality and color rendition. Canon has added to its EOS 5D range with the launch of two 50MP cameras, the 5DS and the 5DS R. Both cameras are high-resolution full frame models, primarily aimed at stills photographers. The only difference between the models is that the 'S' has an optical low-pass filter, while the 'S R' has a self-cancelling filter (the same relationship as Nikon's D800 and D800E models shared). The two cameras will exist alongside the EOD 5D Mark III, acting as dedicated high-resolution cameras primarily intended for studio, landscape and wedding shoots, rather than the all-round capability offere...

Samsung S6 and GOOGLE

A fingerprint sensor is available in Samsung's Galaxy S6. IPHONE 6 AVAILABLE AT AMAZON.IN Google's next update to its Android operating system could come with a new security feature: full support for fingerprint sensors. At the Google I/O conference next week, Google will unveil native fingerprint authentication support in its expected Android M operating system, BuzzFeed News is reporting, citing people who claim to have knowledge of its plans. If that's true, it would suggest that Google will launch an application programming interface (API) for fingerprint-sensing to developers, so they can incorporate fingerprint authentication into their apps. The idea of Google actually launching native fingerprint support, however, is predicated on the company launching Android M. The company has yet to confirm it will announce that next version of its operating system for mobile devices, the expected follow-on to Android Lollipop, which Google released in ...

Canon EOS 5D Mark III Review

Canon EOS 5D Mark III Review AVAILABLE AT AMAZON.IN Review based on production Canon EOS 5D Mark III with firmware v1.1.2 In 1987 Canon unveiled the EOS 650 to the world. It was the Japanese manufacturer's first 35mm autofocus SLR and the start of the EOS system. With its fully-electronic lens mount, in-lens aperture and focus motors, and reliance on electronic button and dial operation, Canon's EOS system established a blueprint that all successive camera systems have followed. Now, 25 years later, the Canon EOS 5D Mark III is the latest model in the line. Up until now, the 5D series has been a dynasty of slightly unlikely revolutionaries. The  original EOS 5D  of 2005 was the first 'affordable' full frame SLR, and the camera that cemented the 24x36mm sensor as the format of choice for many professional applications at a time when many were questioning its continued relevance. The  5D Mark II  was the first SLR capable of recording f...
