Canon and Technicolor to bring movie colour to your DSLR..

Canon and Technicolor have signed a deal that will see the creation of a Technicolor profile created for and be made available to current and future Canon DSLR users.
It means that Canon DSLR users, like those who own the Canon 7D or the newly announced Canon EOS 600D will be able to shoot a movie with their camera and make it look like its been processed by Technicolor, giving it a professional look and feel as if it had been shot for the movies.
“Having shot a theatrical feature using Canon’s EOS DSLR’s (1-D Mark IV, 5D Mark II and the 7D),” states Tom Stern, a professional cinematographer who has worked with the likes of Clint Eastwood. “I am very supportive of Technicolor and Canon working together to develop the ‘CineStyle’ profile.  This can only help to serve greater utility of the EOS DSLR’s in production cinematography.  I applaud this effort.”
“Technicolor has closely followed the adoption of Canon EOS DSLR cameras into the ranks of professional productions,” stated Technicolor’s chief marketing officer, Ahmad Ouri.  “We remain committed to cinematographers as they adopt new tools and techniques, and, based on the requests we’ve received from many of our creative clients, we have worked with Canon to provide a stable path, originating with these cameras and flowing effortlessly into our post pipeline.”
Yuichi Ishizuka, executive vice president and general manager, Imaging Technologies and Communications Group, for Canon USA added: “We are excited about Technicolor’s development of their new CineStyle for Canon EOS DSLR cameras, giving post-production professionals image files with much greater latitude  and versatility when colour grading EOS footage.”
And they would be right, last year House used the Season 6 finale shows what DSLR movie-mode can do shooting the final episode on Canon cameras rather than more professional rigs.
More details are expected at the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) Show 2011 in Las Vegas next week.

Microsoft and Toyota to bring Cloud telematics to the car..

Microsoft and Toyota have announced they will partner together to allow Toyota to build a global cloud platform that will update in car telematics in Toyota hybrids and plug-in vehicles, starting in 2012.
“As the car increasingly becomes the ultimate mobile device for consumers, telematics technologies can allow drivers to start their cars remotely, turn on their AC from a cell phone, check systems within the car and much more,” say the companies in a statement.
The two companies aim to help develop and deploy telematics applications on the Windows Azure platform, which includes Windows Azure and Microsoft SQL Azure.

Toyota is already conducting trials in Japan of its Toyota Smart Center pilot program, which plans to link people, automobiles and homes for integrated control of energy consumption. It believes that, as electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles become more popular, such systems will rely more on telematics services for achieving efficient energy management. Microsoft perhaps seeing this trend also, clearly hopes to jump on the next technological wave as it happens.
Toyota’s goal is to establish a complete global cloud platform by 2015 that will provide affordable and advanced telematics services to Toyota automotive customers around the world, it says.

Microsoft launch an update for Office for Mac 2011 next week..

Microsoft will launch an update for Office for Mac 2011 next week the company has confirmed.
The new SP1 update will provide increased stability, security, and some new features to the suite – including improved Outlook syncing support – as well as some performance enhancements.
The new update will also finally allow Mac users to sync their Outlook calendar as well as contacts, notes and tasks with any service or device that supports Sync Services, including your iPhone and iPad.

Microsoft say this has been one of our top feature requests. The update will also enable calendar syncing between Outlook for Mac and Apple’s Sync Services.
However MobileMe will no longer sync with MacOS Sync Services as of May 5th. As a result, Outlook 2011 SP1 calendars that sync with Sync Services on the Mac, will NOT be synced with MobileMe calendars.
So what does this mean? If you sync your iPhone or iPad calendars with Sync Services (ie via iTunes over a cable), your mobile device calendars WILL be synced with Outlook 2011 SP1. If you sync your iPhone or iPad calendars with MobileMe, they will NOT be synced to your Outlook 2011 SP1 calendar, because of the broken link between MobileMe and Sync Services. Hopefully Apple’s changes will not impact very many of you.
