Canon EOS 300D Firmware Upgrade

Add as a preferred source on Google

Quote from the article:

“Canon EOS 300D is good by itself. At least by the fact that this is the first real reflex digital camera at the cost of a good compact digital camera. Its functionality practically didn’t suffer from the fight for the price. Interchangeable lenses, depth of field preview, manual and automatic shooting modes, RAW mode, external hot shoe, good image quality at variable ISO (100-800 settings). From its predecessor EOS 10D, the Rebel differs by its “soft” plastic case, controls, and smaller buffer size. But both hardware and software parts are mostly the same as in EOS 10D. This allowed Canon a “quick” launch of an inexpensive camera. This also allows to make almost 10D out of 300D (we should thank Canon for this opportunity, because it “didn’t break off the extra pins from the chips”). “

Google releases big v4.0 update for its popular Snapseed editing app on Android
Electronics, Phone, Mobile Phone

After years of sitting on its hands, Google appears to have remembered it owns one of the best photo editing apps on mobile. Snapseed 4.0 is now rolling out to Android, bringing the platform up to speed after a stretch of iOS exclusivity that left Android users watching from the sidelines.

The story starts last June, when Google quietly broke Snapseed out of its long dormancy with a significant 3.0 update for iPhone. It was a surprise move that suggested the company was serious about the app again. Google then confirmed at the start of this year that Android wouldn't be left behind for long, and true to that word, the Play Store listing has now been updated to reflect version 4.0 — skipping straight past 3.0 for Android users and landing both platforms on the same version simultaneously.
