Announcing The 2012 WPPI Expo Photo Ride in Las Vegas!

January 20, 2012 by Brian Matiash • 1 Comment

Do you want to take part in an amazing gathering of photographers and motorcycle riders in the Nevada desert?

You are invited to join onOne Software and award winning photographer and Canon Explorer of Light, Ken Sklute, for the 2012 WPPI Photo Ride! I hope that you will have time to join us on Thursday, February 23, 2012, the closing day of the convention. We will depart the MGM Grand Hotel at 9:00AM and after signing out both bikes and helmets, we will journey north to the beautiful Valley of Fire State Park, about an hour north of the strip. We will eat lunch in the park and have a ton of  fun at our stops!

Ken has found a motocycle rental company that can accommodate us with a wide variety of motorcycles to fit most tastes including trikes, a three wheeled bike of sorts that does not require a separate motorcycle license. The Trike normally rents for $250/day, but we were able to negotiate a special rate of $199.00/day. Ken has also negotiated a rental of $89.90/day for most two wheelers.  The rental includes a helmet (necessary in Nevada), unlimited mileage and the shiny new bike! You bring goggles, leathers, boots, gloves, cameras and the fun!

We are planning to return to the hotel sometime between 4:30PM and 5:30PM We are asking for a $25.00 deposit to hold your spot on the trip. Your payment will go towards a boxed lunch, refreshments and a commemorative t-shirt.

Reserve your spot today as we are limiting the number of riders to 50. Please contact Ken Sklute at KenSklute@mac.com for your reservation.

We hope to see you there!!!

A Teaser Result of Perfect Photo Suite 6

September 24, 2011 by Brian Matiash • Comments Off

I couldn't help myself. I've been using Perfect Photo Suite 6 for a while now and I can't rave enough about how much I love what our amazing engineers and designers have built.

I wanted to share a quick before/after of an UrbEx HDR image that I took a few months ago. I processed the image using Perfect Effects and then blended in an overlay from PhotoFrame - all without leaving the Perfect Photo Suite UI. It was effortless!

Oh, and I saved the Perfect Effects preset for this image so you can all enjoy the same look when you get your copy of the Suite in late October!

Come Join Us At The Photoshop World Tweetup!

September 3, 2011 by Brian Matiash • 1 Comment

The best part about Photoshop World is that there is never a shortage of events to go to and people to see. To that end, I am really excited that onOne will be working directly with the good folks at NAPP to host this year's Tweetup! For those of you who may not be familiar with what a Tweetup is, picture a gathering of hundreds of like-minded photographers, all out to have a great time and prepare for three solid days of Photoshop World pandemonium. That's a Tweetup in a nutshell.

Our friend, Erik Valind, returns as the event photographer, and there is no doubt he will be grabbing some 'memorable' shots again. Erik will be using DSLR Camera Remote HD in full effect during the Tweetup, so you'll get a chance to see how awesome it is in action!

Everyone who is anyone will be there! Plus, there will be a ton of awesome prizes that we'll be raffling off including copies of the Perfect Photo Suite, books by Peachpit Press, swag from Kelby Media & more! The details of the event are below. We hope to see you there!

DSLR Camera Remote "Classic" Coming Soon

August 8, 2011 by Mike Wong • 5 Comments

Okay. I'll be the first to admit that we made a mistake in removing support for the older Canon cameras perhaps a bit too quickly. After hearing all of your comments and feedback, we've looked further into our ability to continue to distribute the older, non-supported Canon SDKs and I'm happy to report that we can. Keep in mind that your feature set is essentially frozen at version 1.4 of the app because Canon is no longer adding any additional functionality to these cameras via their SDK, but you'll be able to continue using the app and you won't have to be bothered by annoying update messages that you wouldn't have been able to do prior to this change we're making.

As such, earlier today, we built a new version of the DSLR Camera Remote Server which we are calling DSLR Camera Remote Server Classic. It will add back in all of the support that was in DSLR Camera Remote Server version 1.4.0 and will work with the latest update to the DSLR Camera Remote app for your favorite iOS device.

After we post the new "Classic" server to download later this week (we need to make sure we didn't break anything), if you have one of the older (classic) Canon cameras, go ahead and update your iOS app and then download the Classic version of the Server and you'll be back up and running.

I apologize for any problems this may have caused. I'll post again when the Classic server is available to download.
