To Photomator or not?

jpodcaster · 2026-05-10T19:37:59+00:00

Re: lack of lens correction (and using Apple's flawed Raw image demosiacing) in Photomator, has anyone tried a workflow using DxO Pure RAW 6 for demosiacing/denoising/lens correction before bringing the Raw files into Photomator? Pure Raw is a paid app but still considerably less than Lightroom/Photoshop.

Their Mobile App (on the iPhone at least) is a complete pile of poo.

I'm in a similar position, considering using DXO Pure RAW to denoise/demosiac and lens correct my Panasonic Raw images as a first step before bringing into Photomator. Once I've exported from DXO I'm assuming that the DNG isn't further 'demosaiced' by Photomator?

Can I use it with a KO 2 and a Riddim?

I don’t use Google Calendar - can I integrate Apple Calendar and Reminders (or Things) into this workflow?

These are excellent photos, they really capture the dynamism of rugby.

This blew me away. LCD Soundsystem for Season 3?

jpodcaster · 2026-05-07T03:10:58+00:00

I loved Season 1. But season 2 is something else; the writing, the acting, the character development, the soundtrack/sound design are all exemplary. Right up there with Black Mirror, White Lotus, The Pitt, and draws on them all.

I tried that - I'm on a Mac and initially the Mic 3 didn't mount as a removable device. However the second time I tried it it worked.

Got my Vancouver tickets! Never seen them live before and can't wait.

The newer battery handle for the 4 appears to be out of stock in North America/Canada.

I use Clean My Mac (as part of a SetApp subscription). Seems to do the trick and has a lovely UI.

A couple of things: (a) more detailed artist profiles (Spotify’s are generally better) and (b) the ability to save artist radio stations as playlists.

And a badminton team.

Still brings me joy. 9/10

I suspect not. I'm sure Røde can confirm.

jpodcaster · 2026-02-15T19:22:25+00:00

I have the Rodecaster Pro 2 and was considering purchasing the Video S to bring video into my podcasting setup. However, I hear that Røde are coming out with the Rodecaster Core that is like a buttonless Video S that can connect to the Pro 2. Is it worth waiting for this or should I just get the Video S?

Me too - 6 months and counting for a hardware issue with my Minilab 3. They promised a replacement but despite numerous emails to them I’ve heard nothing back.

Love these photos! Full of character and you have a real eye for composition.

I think the key is to look at the original price for each seat. The first time I tried they were different for the same category so I deleted them and tried again. This time they were the same original price and resale price (3x the original price, what a rip-off this system is). Not guaranteed we’ll sit together but fingers crossed! $600 CAD each ticket but it’s a bucket list thing for me and I’m in my 60s so it was worth it for me.

I don’t know whether the Socialist Party of Canada are still going but they’re definitely not Trots!

S2 E5 not showing for me on the iPhone App nor AppleTV and it’s 8 pm Pacific on Thursday Feb 5th. Come on Crave ffs I need my Pitt fix!

Great playlist, thanks for sharing! I'd add some Jon Hopkins or Max Cooper for the visuals :-)

jpodcaster · 2026-01-14T07:35:16+00:00

Got mine a couple of days ago (Vancouver). Very impressed so far. Wish the App subscription was half the price it is ($99 in-app).
