Download or read book The Olympus Pen F Menu System Simplified written by David Thorpe and published by . This book was released on 2016-04-28 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Olympus Pen F is one of the most versatile and accomplished fully digital cameras ever produced. That makes it a formidable imaging tool but also gives the user a steep learning curve to get the best from it. For example, the Custom Menu alone has more than 140 entries, each with their own sub-entries. This book helps you over that learning curve by going through the menu options one by one, explaining what they do and why you might want to do it. At the end of the book, I illustrate, item by item, every menu setting I use as my basic camera setup, followed by an index of the contents. It won't be your ideal setup but it will give you a working configuration from which to find it. After a more than 40 years career as a professional news and magazine photographer, I went over to Micro Four Thirds camera for all my work almost as soon as they came out. I've never regretted that and I hope that with my little book you'll come to respect and admire these little jewels of camera technology as much as I do.

Download or read book The Off Modern written by Svetlana Boym and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2017-06-15 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Svetlana Boym writes a new genealogy of modernity, moving beyond older debates between modernism and postmodernism to focus on the intersection of art, architecture, technology, and philosophy in the early twenty-first century. Drawing on theories of Georg Simmel, Henri Bergson, Aby Warburg, and Jacques Derrida, Boym presents the off-modern as an eccentric, self-questioning, anti-authoritarian perspective with roots in the Russian avant-garde, now developed in surprising ways by contemporary artists, architects, and curators around the world. She illustrates the off-modern in discussions of (and with) figures as diverse as architect Rem Koolhaas, Albanian artist-turned-mayor Edi Rama, an art collective in Delhi, and the creator of the Museum of Jurassic Technology in Los Angeles. Both a manifesto and a memoir, The Off-Modern often returns to themes of travel and immigration, exploring issues of diasporic intimacy and productive estrangement amid nostalgic landscapes of urban ruins.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is impossible to imagine the modern world without sensors, or without real-time information about almost everything—from local temperature to material composition and health parameters.

This book documents some of the results of such a dialogue and reports on advances in sensors and sensor systems for existing and emerging real-time monitoring applications.
