In this recurring column, we highlight a few items we've run across that don't merit a full story of their own but are interesting enough to bring to your attention (with more than 140 characters). This time we look at the 2016 MacBook Pro, 2017 for photographers, the Viltrox 35mm f2 and scanning to Dropbox.
- In 2016 MacBook Pro First Impressions, Thom Hogan lists the pros and cons of the new laptop. The lack of an SD slot particularly annoys him because it was dropped as a result of a survey. "Oh dear, it's come to that, Apple?," he writes. "You're going to design to surveys?"
- In What I'm Expecting (As a Working Photographer) in the New Year (2017)., Kirk Tuck points out, "Clients don't want 'a photographer' they want someone who is a creative problem solver who creates visual content. All kinds of visual content."
- Jim Klasson tries out A Dirt-Cheap FE Lens, which would be his new $167 Viltrox 35mm f2 lens from China.
- Derrick Story points out you can Scan and Save Documents With Dropbox Mobile from your smartphone.
