...and I was the only person I could see carrying a Leica. It was filled with Canon and Nikon shooters. I saw one X100 and no MF gear other than the S2 at the Leica booth.
My award for coolest product at the show goes to Athentec's Perfectly Clear plugin for Photoshop and Lightroom. It's the first image correcting tool I have seen that does corrections not only globally across the image but also does them at the pixel level - for example if you give it a photo containing people with red-eye it will automatically fix the red-eye without user intervention! I have used other image correcting tools but they all either make global changes only or require you to point at various parts of the image and make corrections. Perfectly Clear is not perfect but it does an amazingly good job and works in batch mode, returning TIFFs or JPEGs to your Lightroom catalog automatically while preserving your original files. This will be a HUGE time saver for many of us.
They told me they developed the algorithms for photo lab processors and recently decided to make end-user products using their patents.

No, I don't work for them.
