DxO updated their software to version 6.6, including a new de-noising too. Nik Snapseed for iPad has already updated to version 1.1, adding more features and better raw support. Fujifilm introduced firmware 1.1 for the X100, which has almost two dozen changes and fixes, enough so that they had to revise and republish the manual for the camera (about half my complaints with the X100 seem to be addressed).
A little outside the scope of this site but still something I know some of you are interested in: Apple released Final Cut Pro X, a major redesign of their seminal video editor, and a change that has the video professional community in an uproard. It's a major example of "who moved my cheese?" Everything is changed. Much for the better (performance, metadata handling, automatic and integrated fixes, clarity of design, etc.). And much for the worse (dropping of all kinds of function, including tape support, EDL support, multicam/multiclip editing, many others).
Since I'm doing more video work these days, I have a few thoughts about Final Cut Pro X. Even though they removed the one feature (multicam) I could use most for the video I'm currently working on, I'll take Apple's word for it that this will reappear soon in an update. I understand how hard it is to completely redo the foundation of a software program and get all the things that were hanging off it back up to speed. I think people are also missing the fact that Apple has moved Final Cut Pro X down in price to the point where we're going to get more people using it, and thus, more third party support in the future. That we don't have it today is a problem for some pros, true, but nobody told them they had to stop using their older Final Cut Pro version.
That said, what I don't like about FCP X (or Aperture or Lightroom for that matter) is how the original files are getting tougher to handle. The benefit of having a database on top is undeniable, sure, but it's starting to impose limitations on the files at the bottom of the database. Moving from one system to another, updating drive arrays, and other physical chores, are becoming a real issue as our original files get buried deeper under a metadata database structure. FCP X is fairly inflexible in that it requires an Events folder to be in one spot (you can pick the spot, but as needs grow, that spot needs to move). Moreover, every video I touch ends up in that Events folder, which is a problem, too, as I can't split it by client and share it with the client (you can by project, but what if you have multiple projects with a client?).
