They are not giving much away - More Power, More Control, More Versatile and More Excitement. And thats it.

Nikon are to release a new camera in 19 days. Rumours suggest it will be a 10.2 megapixel replacement for the D70/D70s series.

Or maybe just defibrillation? Apple watch site Think Secret is reporting that Apple has fired most of the Aperture devel team, and there's apparently been no word yet on how or when they're going to be replaced. I have to side with the unnamed insiders cited in the TS article: this shouldn't really be a surprise. Aperture has been buggy and rough around the edges--even for an Apple 1.0 release--and the design and marketing model has been a complete disaster. You know you've gotten something really, really wrong when you end up reimbursing you customers nearly half the purchase price. Nevertheless, it's a bit of a shock from Apple, which normally follows a dogged fake it 'till you make it approach to development, particularly software development, and it raises some serious questions about the project's future. In the sort run, at least, the outlook is good: it seems that Aperture is in the hands of the same people who turn out Final Cut, which is arguably Apple's best--and best-run--software project. Let's just hope they're as good with still images as they are with video.
