WiFi cameras and Copyright

Things to consider regarding WiFi cameras and Copyright. Yesterday I watched a very interesting and educational video posted at BH's Youtube channel by the Copyright Zone guys. In case you haven't heard about them, an intellectual property lawyer, Ed Greenberg,  and a commercial photographer,  Jack Reznicki, joined forces in an effort to illustrate and educate, the many creatives out there, about…

Sony’s Boldness – The Alpha A7R mark II

Happy 2015
