Cool Little Gadget

 

OK, when I first saw this thing I chuckled because if you see somebody using it, it just looks kind of silly. It’s called the xShot. It is simply an arm extension for your camera. Now, we have all been in the situation where we hold our camera out and point it at ourselves and perhaps a friend we are with, but what is wrong with every one of those shots – it looks like you shot it yourself. With the xShot you can hold your camera out further away from you and take a picture without it being obvious that your arm is holding the camera. Check out their web site here. It has video demos and pictures. Like I said, it seems a little silly at first, but it is really a cool little gadget.

Adding Keywords to Multiple files

In Bridge, you can add keywords to images to make searching for pictures a little less cumbersome. You don’t, however, want the process to become tedious as well. By either Command-clicking (PC: Ctrl-clicking) or Shift-clicking on images, you can select multiple files inside Bridge. Once you have the files selected, you can go to the Keywords panel and turn on any keyword you like. This will apply the keyword to all of the files that you have selected. It takes away a little bit of the pain of categorization, but just a little.
