I sat down with Jimmy Beltz over at PhotoTips earlier this week as part of his weekly podcast series. We talked about my recent trip to CES 2013 and some of the new gear that was shown there.

Check out the timelapse BTS video below to see how the real world content-aware fill was put together. [click to continue…]
