This means users can now stretch their creative shutter finger and adjust things like shutter speed or ISO (remember there's no need to adjust aperture, which is a constant f/2.0), and turn on or off the neutral density (ND) filter. <a href="/web/20121018000425/http://www.gizmag.com/lytro-manual-control/24504/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item " data-article="24454"> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="vsmall" href="/web/20121018000425/http://www.gizmag.com/digital-cameras/" style="float: left; ">DIGITAL CAMERAS</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20121018000425/http://www.gizmag.com/adobe-lossy-dng/24454/">Adobe expands DNG spec with lossy compression … and why it matters to you</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <div>By <a href="/web/20121018000425/http://www.gizmag.com/author/simon-crisp/">Simon Crisp</a></div> <div class="date">October 7, 2012</div> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <div class="has_comments"><a href="/web/20121018000425/http://www.gizmag.com/adobe-lossy-dng/24454/#comments">9 Comments</a></div> <div class="has_pictures"><a href="/web/20121018000425/http://www.gizmag.com/adobe-lossy-dng/24454/pictures">3 Pictures</a></div> </div> </div> </div> <a class="noback" href="/web/20121018000425/http://www.gizmag.com/adobe-lossy-dng/24454/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20121018000425im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/adobe-dng-2.jpg" title="Adobe has introduced lossy compression to the DNG specification because of the gulf betwee..." alt="Adobe has introduced lossy compression to the DNG specification because of the gulf betwee..."/></a> <div class="summary"> <p> While the majority of people use their digital cameras to shoot JPEG files, serious photographers swear by RAW, which offers much increased possibilities in post processing. But while RAW images are of a higher quality than their JPEG counterparts, they also take up a lot more space and require more processing power to work with. That's why Adobe has included lossy compression in the recently announced 1.4 specification for its Digital Negative (DNG) RAW file format. <a href="/web/20121018000425/http://www.gizmag.com/adobe-lossy-dng/24454/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item " data-article="24404"> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="vsmall" href="/web/20121018000425/http://www.gizmag.com/childsplay/" style="float: left; ">CHILDSPLAY</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20121018000425/http://www.gizmag.com/meep-kids-tablet/24404/">MEEP! tablet for kids now available </a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <div>By <a href="/web/20121018000425/http://www.gizmag.com/author/simon-crisp/">Simon Crisp</a></div> <div class="date">October 3, 2012</div> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <div class="has_pictures"><a href="/web/20121018000425/http://www.gizmag.com/meep-kids-tablet/24404/pictures">4 Pictures</a></div> </div> </div> </div> <a class="noback" href="/web/20121018000425/http://www.gizmag.com/meep-kids-tablet/24404/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20121018000425im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/meep.jpg" title="MEEP! boasts a recessed 7-inch zForce touch screen and is powered by a 1.0GHz Cortex A8 pr..." alt="MEEP! boasts a recessed 7-inch zForce touch screen and is powered by a 1.0GHz Cortex A8 pr..."/></a> <div class="summary"> <p> If product releases are anything to go by, it seems that almost every child is going to be getting a tablet computer for Christmas this year.
