Cradoc Corporation Releases fotoQuote Pro 5.0
The Industry Standard Price Guide for Stock and Assignment Photography
Version 5.0 has over 80 new Categories with completely updated Pricing information including new technologies. Also has a new Interface, Find screen, Notes window, and more.

Point Roberts, WA – February 2004 – Cradoc Corporation, a major developer of computer software for the freelance photographer, today announced the release of fotoQuote Pro 5. FotoQuote Pro 5 is an electronic price guide for stock and assignment photography. FotoQuote Pro 5 is the only source of pricing information for photographers that gives you powerful Coaching help in every one of its 218 pricing categories. FotoQuote not only helps you come up with a fair price for your image license, but also gives you the inside information you will need to help you negotiate and close the sale.

“The changes in the photo industry are huge since we last released the original fotoQuote in 1993,” said Cradoc Bagshaw, President of Cradoc Corporation and Creator of fotoQuote. “I spent nearly a year working on this update and I was surprised at how much time it took to get a handle on what is currently happening in the photo industry. I believe that there are two main reasons for the changes I am seeing. The first is that two large stock agencies are dominating the world markets. The other is that companies are using photographs in many different ways because of digital technology and more targeted advertising. The photo industry is transforming in major ways and I wanted to be sure that fotoQuote Pro 5 would supply the photographer with the information that he or she needs to understand and take advantage of those changes.”

FotoQuote automates the process of creating a quote for stock photography submissions. “Our research has shown that when a price quote is given in writing instead of verbally there is a much higher chance of getting the asking price,” said Bagshaw. “ There are fewer problems, including copyright infringement or rights grabs, if the photographer is willing to take the time to send the client the correct paperwork outlining the exact details of the job, including usages and rights that are to be granted.”

The Coach section is a very popular feature of fotoQuote and it’s packed full of more negotiating and pricing information than ever before. It’s been compared to attending a weekend pricing seminar.

"FotoQuote is the number one program to help photographers gain a clear picture on how to price their photographic images. Most photographers would be nuts if they don’t have fotoQuote, “ said photographer Jean Ferro, the President of Women In Photography International.

Among fotoQuote Pro 5’s new features are:

New Categories: There are over 80 new categories for a total of 218. There are dozens of new categories that deal with new technologies like, Film, Web, CD/DVD and Television.

New Interface: Using fotoQuote is greatly simplified. When creating a quote you simply click a category tab: Advertising, Corporate, Editorial, Electronic, etc, and select the usage you want. FotoQuote once again runs in a single window making it easy to use with other programs.

New Find Screen: There are so many categories in fotoQuote Pro 5 we’ve added a new find screen that makes finding usages easy. Just type in a word or phrase, click the find button, and you will get a list of usages from throughout the program that match.

New Notes Window: Each of fotoQuote’s main categories now has a notes window that lets you keep multiple notes with sales information for each of your transactions in that category.

New Updated Pricing: All of the prices have been carefully reviewed from actual sales records, and raised or lowered to reflect the current market.

“Thanks for all your good work. I have used fotoQuote many times to price sales and it has been invaluable at protecting me from seriously under pricing my work. It gives me the confidence to offer a price, based on your database, then ‘clam up’ and let the client do the rest of the talking. Plus your helpful tips and tutorials on pricing unusual uses, negotiating and all the rest of it are a godsend for those of us slogging it out in the freelance market,” said Jim Lawrence, photographer and writer.

Priced at $149.95, fotoQuote Pro 5 is an excellent value ($139.95 for the download version). An upgrade price for registered owners of fotoQuote or fotoBiz is also available. Please view our web site www.fotoquote.com or call us at 360-945-1380 for more specific details on upgrade pricing. By popular demand fotoQuote is now available once again as a standalone application.

Founded in 1993 Cradoc Corporation is a leading developer of computer software for the freelance photographer. Cradoc Corp also develops fotoBiz the complete business management solution for the freelance photographer. For more information visit www.fotobiz.net.

A REVOLUTION IN LOMOGRAPHY. The Lomolitos are single-use cameras - disposable in cost and simple construction, but absolutely priceless in sheer photo-impact. For the first time ever, a compact throwaway (or more accurately, "throw to the developer") camera has been fitted with our color-gel flash apparatus - resulting in the hectic colorsplashing effects that we have all grown hopelessly addicted to. Allow us to break it down:

COLORFUL
The distinguishing feature - Lomolitos includes an integrated color filter that can be switched on or off at will. Instantly, you can add a burst of wild colored light into both your daytime and nightime exposures. Each Lomolitos includes one of four tasty colors - yellow, blue, red, or green.

CHEAP
Not cheaply made, but cheaply priced. Outside of being easy on the purse, the low price of Lomolitos allows you to experiment with each individual camera at will. Fiddle with the lens, try a crazy mounted filter, play with the rear door - each Lomolitos begs to be explored and modified. And the best news: the more you get, the cheaper they become!

EASY
Lomolitos are small little things - tiny in weight and size - that fit just about everywhere. The lens is focus free, and the color gel needs merely a moment's attention to flick on and off. Given this conveinence, there's no reason not to have a Lomolitos at the ready for every given moment - ready to instantly slap your subject with a burst of colored light and record a quick Lomograph through its beady lens. Once your roll is finished, drop off your entire camera with any 35mm developer.

MULTIPLE
Lomolitos flip the usual equation of one camera with multiple rolls of film over to many cameras available simultaneuosly. This means: color-splashed pictures from one hand with green and the other with blue, a group of your 30 closest friends lighting up the party all at once, one camera with a clear lens and one with a lens painted with nail polish for before-and-after portrait, a camera always stashed in your car for those unexpected roadside lomographs, exchanging a Lomolito with your international friends to yield a few Lomographs from each country, never reloading when time and Lomographic necessity is of the essence, heart-pounding Lomolito-duels with your photographic adversaries, and full-scale Lomographic power at your fingertips when and wherever you need it!

Lomolito On!
