At the 2007 Photoshop World Conference in Las Vegas, I sat down with John Nack, Senior Product Manger for Adobe Photoshop and Bridge, and we discussed John’s background in digital imaging, and an extended conversation on all things Photoshop, both now and in the future. If you are working with digital photography, Photoshop, or Lightroom, then listen in to this interview! Recorded at the National Association of Photoshop Professionals Photoshop World Conference, in Las Vegas, in September 2007 by Harris Fogel. Posted 6/28/2008 (26:24)

Achieving an accurate white balance has been the bane of photographers working in color since the invention of color photography. Fast-forward to the digital age, and white balance is simply a click away, or at least so most people think. Set your camera to automatic white balance and usually the results are reasonably good. So, what do you do if you want really accurate color balance? The key is the use of a calibrated target such as the ExpoDisc or CBL's Color Balance Lens so you can accurately and quickly set a custom white balance.

Madden NFL 08 is the latest in a long series of football sim games, and it is one of the most fun to play. Madden is one of the few games that publisher EA Games has released for the Mac, along with other titles such as Need For Speed: Carbon and Battlefield 2142. Madden is one of the better games they have released, in my opinion, and the 08 version gives you all the excitement and fun as the previous Madden football games.

Audiophiles are a tough bunch to please. If you've ever walked into the showroom of a high-end audio store, you would be hard pressed to find systems priced less than ten grand at the low-end. Naturally, the secret desire of most audiophiles is that bargain system that sounds as good as the outrageously priced one. While it's a bit of an impossible dream, when an affordable product emerges that deserves serious consideration, an underground whispering campaign begins. Check out the Oppo DV-980H, an affordable Universal DVD player that can play normal DVDs and CDs, but also SACD and DVD-A formats in addition to a slew of others.
