Sony's Visual Story Is A New Cloud Storage Service For Professional Photographers

One of the problems that professional photographers face when shooting in the field, like during a live event such as a wedding, is that there is always a chance that their cameras or memory cards can fail and all the photos that they’ve taken are lost. This is usually why wedding photographers work in teams and carry multiple cameras.

Sony is hoping to make their lives easier by launching a new app and storage service called Visual Story. This app allows users to pair their Sony cameras with a mobile device like an iPhone or iPad, and whenever photos are taken they are immediately transferred to the app and to Sony’s cloud service.

Japan's Meteorological Agency has decided to use a red-and-white flag on beaches as a visual signal to warn people with hearing disabilities about tsunamis.

The agency says people should immediately get out of the water, and evacuate to higher ground, as soon as they see the "tsunami flag."
