by NS_Photography
May 15th 2012 - 0 comments

The DIA Parrot by Nodesign really sort of defies explanation. Even the press release, which should ideally describe the product the best, seemed to be lost for words: Dismantled, deconstructed, disconnected from the frame as if there was nothing behind, this screen is transparency, is light.

Slow-motion video is usually the territory of expensive equipment like the Miro M120. Alternatively, if you’re not looking to shoot professionally, you can always take the video you capture on your phone or regular camera and slow it down, but the results are usually choppy and (sadly) nothing you’d want to broadcast on YouTube. Fortunately, [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/47/19/24/471924.gif[/IMG]

Many words and/or phrases come to mind when you think of Kodak: photography, disposable camera, kodak moment, and more recently bankruptcy. But we never thought we would be able to associate the phrases “nuclear reactor” and “enriched uranium” with the once-great photography giant — until recently that is. That’s because a few months ago a [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/47/18/70/471870.jpeg[/IMG]
