Tablet vs. Laptop vs. Desktop PC – what to choose?

de

A comment on LifeHacker web site gives a good hint on this: A laptop was neither powerful, nor particularly portable. I always had to go back to a desktop for heavy graphics and video work. And it was never such a pleasure to lug it around from airport to airport, with a five or six hour battery, making necessary a second battery and charger. Ugh. So I jumped on the opportunity to replace my laptop when the first iPad came out.

Why at first, you should buy a “test” DSLR?

It seems counter-intuitive: Why buy, in the beginning, only a test DSLR? Why not start with the “real thing” (good body, good lens, blitz etc.)? The answer is simple: By the time you will learn how to decently used all the above (body + lens + lights), you will have wasted a lot of time on a good machine. It actually costs you to have a performing DSLR and not use it at its real value.

Two kinds of feed-back and their importance

de

I think there are two kinds of feed-back: Emotional feed-back – “You did this, my reaction to this is this emotion”. Logical feed-back – “This can be improved like this & like that”. Feed-back is hugely important: See an animation movie and see how characters react one to the other. In my opinion, the essence of how a movie will be perceived is given by the way the feed-back is given (and, in emotions, exaggeration counts). If you want to get better, you need logical feed-back. That’s why I do audits. I think feed-back is very important to the society as a whole. In order to grow, you need feed-back.
