The iPhone4

-
Just announced and it looks set to re-write all of the standards; again. After a bit of head scratching I think I've correctly worked out the screen resolution will be a HD busting and truly staggering 2560x1920 pixels. (my tv is a 'mere' 1920x1080). 
iMovie is a tremendous Mac App for Video editing which will be incredible on a phone. HD video. 720HD video capture. . Intuitive folders for Apps. A new custom designed 'A4' Processor. Better battery life. More slender design, finger print resistant bendy glass front an back. Steel outer frame that doubles as the antenna. It's the attention to detail that sets Apple products apart and this is no exception. Apple have done it again. I do wish other manufacturers would pour so much into one amazing product, instead of so little into so many mediocre ones.

Clarity and preparedness   If I have to travel anywhere new, I'll need plans. No one else's plan's, my own. In my old life, whenever we had meetings, a few members of our management team would always hook up with me. Marc, once told me, the reason he always jumped in with me was because I'd know exactly where the venue was, where the best places to park were likely to be, what time we would have to leave to arrive early, what the hotel was called, what the check in arrangements were and so on. He was right, I am wholly uncomfortable if I do not know any of this. Another colleague I work with now, Ken, has observed I'm very much a details guy. I have to know exactly what to do, I am pretty hopeless with any ambiguity, if it isn't totally clear, I flounder or stop dead in my tracks.  Likewise, with the En suite we're having installed, I have to know exactly, what tiles we're having, what toilet, tap, shower, etc and until that's all decided and written

Kogeto Dot thing

Oh the irony. about 6 months ago I emailed our buying team and told them about the GoPano 360, a device we ought to consider selling. Then when the buying team found out the RRP they decided against it, calling it a niche product, they were probably right. This week though, we've had this product in which performs exactly the same function... it captures 360 degree video. The two products seem to achieve the result in slightly different ways though. The strangely named Kogeto Dot seems to use a fish eye lens, where as the GoPano uses a conical mirror. Now before I need to explain my results, if you have an iOS device, you probably don't need to read on. Simply download the free 'looker' app from the apple app store. From here if you navigate to 'featured' and you'll see the videos that other users have uploaded.  Actually you can make your mind without an iOS device by looking at the videos on the dot website. However you view the videos though you will no

Rough Cuts Ltd - end of aerial services.

Before the end of this year Rough Cuts Ltd, permission for commercial drone operation from the CAA will expire. In 2020 we do not intend to renew this license for a number of reasons. It has been a genuine pleasure to serve some of the regions finest estate agents and we have been passionate about creating the best quality videos for the lowest costs, we've seen some truly stunning properties. But the annual cost of insurance, the time required to maintain and operate the drone, the constantly changing parameters for (and cost of) licence renewal and lack of recurring business in this field simply mean it's no longer sensible for us to continue. Moving forward we will look to maintain our relationship with existing partners to provide event photography and video services, as expected, but we will also focus much more on educational and social projects. Sharing the Knowledge we have of technology with pupils and people across Flintshire. We will still be a part of the Do-W
