Very good points. If only my Lightroom could notice my fading interest and could say "Hey, pal. Grab your ass off the couch and go shoot a cityscape (you've enjoyed them). I'm challenging 5 other guys like you to make the same." and then show our photos each other.

I've never shot film. And it seems to me even more cumbersome than digital photography, to be honest.

Oh, God. Those are huge. I see why you find them difficult to use

Laser (as in the mouse), I guess, should work.

Are there any issues with other noises using this approach? And what's the level of preciseness if you remember.

just using an application and some form of cloud sync

Setups like this usually suck. These workflows are hard to maintain, especially by not so tech-clever photographers.

what's the benefit of editing in the browser

You mean from a user perspective? Then "no installation", freedom choosing platform, collaborative editing, etc. If we talk in a greater perspective... Web version of software for RAW processing can be easily integrated into any web service: Google+, Dropbox...

Hey, hackers. Here's the first picture from the post in higher resolution – http://blog.pics.io/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/8bd2a4633b08b...

In case some of you want to put it as a desktop wallpaper :)

Loads for me. Don't see spam links. Can send you over the post in Pocket. What's your email?

Sony holds a good share, so, yes, we'll take it into work. But for now our priority is speeding up. We just started optimising and already reduced processing time by 50%. But that isn't enough, obviously.

You are correct about our approach (I'm referring to dcraw here).

Do you see this as viable for use on tablets and such?

It's a question of hardware, most of the things we build can run in browsers on tablets (in theory). We actually don't see much benefit in editing on a tablet. But iPad can be a good device for photo management and sharing.

Hi, I'm part of the team. In that case we would get a "black box". We need full control over the process.
