Dvorak on DEVONthink

his was a smart move, since he was following the advice of pundits, technology writers, and everyone who ever gave advice about what to buy and why: "Buy solutions, not hardware." In his case, the solution was a stunning piece of software called DEVONthink, which he needs for a book he's writing.

This thing sucks up PDF files like crazy, first organizing and then sorting them into manageable database blocks. I'll leave it to reviewers to fully explain its features, but let me just say that it's about as close to a killer Apple app as anything I've seen since VisiCalc in the late '70s.

And I spent twenty years working on this stuff and I’m not going to go and reinvent the wheel just because someone needs to sell cameras!

Luminous Landscape: Leica M8 Revisited

Shooting the Leica is like going out with Pamela Anderson. The camera keeps saying you can make me clean, cook, raise the kids, but I won't be very good at it., though if you let me do what I'm good at you'll be very happy.

Variations on a Theme

Some people are very eager for the camera not to matter, but like it or not, the camera can help. Cameras don't take pictures, true; but then, people don't take pictures either. People with cameras take pictures.

The Leica as Teacher - The Online Photographer

I suggest shooting with nothing but a Leica and one lens for a year. Shoot one type of black-and-white film (yes, even if you're completely devoted to color and digital, and hate film and everything it stands for. You don't have to commit to this forever; it's an exercise). Pick a single-focal-length 50mm, or 35mm, or 28mm. It doesn't have to be a "good" lens—anything that appeals to you and that fits the camera will do. Carry the camera with you all day, every day. Shoot at least two films a week. Four or six is better (or shoot more in the spring and fall and less in the dead of summer and winter). The more time you spend shooting, the better.
