Sony have announced that they will be holding their NAB 2020 press conference digitally in an online livestream, after the Las Vegas show was cancelled due to the spread of coronavirus.

Given the nature of the show, expect to see an obvious focus on the cine side of Sony's product range. This could possibly include the launch of the now near-mythical Alpha A7S Mark III, but we wouldn't hold even our virtual breath for too long.

Sony's NAB online press conference time will start at 9:00am PST on Thursday April 30, 2020.

After last week's UK Photography Show was axed because of Covid-19, today Photokina 2020, the leading international trade fair for photography, video and imaging, has also been cancelled.

Interestingly, this decision was made not just because of coronavirus, but also because "the imaging market was already subject to strongly dynamic movements.This trend will now gain momentum and must be factored into plans for the upcoming photokina."

The next installment of Photokina is now scheduled for 2 years time, 18 to 21 May 2022.

At this year’s Adobe MAX event, some incredible Sneaks were showcased by Adobe engineers, alongside comedian, actress and writer Tiffany Haddish and Paul Trani, Adobe’s Senior Creative Cloud Evangelist.

The latest innovations that were showcased include:

#MovingStills: Have you ever had a photo that you wished was a video instead? Moving Stills enables any photograph to be turned into a live photo; animating the image in 3D and simulating the realistic effect of flying through the photo. Moving Stills uses deep learning powered by Adobe Sensei to generate videos from a single still image, something that would otherwise take an experienced artist hours to finish.

#ProjectFastMask: Project Fast Mask uses Adobe Sensei to quickly select an object in a video and accurately apply the mask across multiple frames of the video, making a laborious manual process nearly automatic.

#ProjectSmoothOperator: For all you video content creators out there, we’re all too familiar with the painstaking process of re-cropping video in varying aspect ratios and trying to keep the most important pieces of the video intact. Enter: Project Smooth Operator. Smooth Operator uses Adobe Sensei to automatically re-crop a video to multiple new aspect ratios, all while keeping what is interesting or important inside the frame.
