LUMINAR With Libraries Demoed For The First Time


Skylum is demoing their digital asset manager for Luminar called Libraries for the first time and it looks very clean. Luminar is one of my favorite editors and is most likely what I will move too once this is released so that I can get away from Adobe’s cash grab. In my experience, Luminar allows for rapid photo editing with great results and I can’t wait for the promised DAM to be released soon.

If you grab a copy of Luminar to try or buy use our link and you can save $10 with our sister sites discount code FUJIADDICT at checkout.

NEW Sony m43 Global Shutter Sensor Coming


Image Sensor World spotted 6 new global shutter sensors on Sony’s website. The IMX367LLA, IMX342LQA, IMX392LQR, IMX305LQR, IMX304LLR/LQR, and IMX267LLR/LQR are very interesting and range from 2.35MP 1/2.3-inch IMX392LLR/LQR to 31.5MP APS-C IMX342LLA/LQA.

The new m43 global shutter sensor could easily end up in a future Panasonic GH6 or Olympus camera. Global shutter technology has been talked about for years and remains very high on the list of things that photographers and videographers want/need and 2018/2019 could end up being the first time consumers gain access to the technology in a professional camera.

Description
The IMX367LLA is a diagonal 21.6 mm (Type 4 / 3) CMOS active pixel type solid-state image sensor with a square
pixel array and 19.66 M effective pixels. This chip features a global shutter with variable charge-integration time. This
chip operates with analog 3.3 V, digital 1.2 V, and interface 1.8 V triple power supply, and has low power consumption.
High sensitivity, low dark current and low PLS characteristics are achieved.
(Applications: FA cameras, ITS cameras)
