Aquila Online

Aquila pronounced AK-weh-lah, uh-KWILL-uh or even a-kee-laa, means eagle in Latin. Just like the eagle, this blog is my “bird’s eye view” on situations or topics that I happen to come across in my life.

A Slimming Camera

// September 24th, 2006 // Tech // 2,783 views

Some selected HP digital cameras now have what they call the slimming feature, a subtle effect that can instantly trim off pounds from the subjects in your photos.

   That is cruel. Can you imagine someone standing in front of a mirror comparing the slimmer photo to the fatter image in the mirror? This fatism stuff really is going too far now.

   True, I guess HP didn’t think of the consequences the technology could have. E.g. I guess it’s fine if it’s a picture of ourself, but imagine the outcry from your friends if you “took the liberty” of editing their images a bit.

   …a little off the back and sides my dear fellow….

   Um… what is the point? The padding will still be there in real life.

   probably depends on where the padding is sitting…some padding is good, some bad.

   I find that 8 beers and a few whiskey shooters usually do the same thing for me. And the effect lasts for most of the night.
