I was asked by a friend to photograph a shoot of his design. It was a non-paid assignment and he acquired the site (the residence of his

colleague) and models (also not paid). He stated the shoot was for the portfolio of all parties involved. I understand as the photographer I

have copyright over the images. What rights does he have over the images? Can he use them to promote his business interests? Is he

entitled to all images from the shoot? What rights do the models retain? Who is responsible for obtaining model releases?

<p>What are the best laptops for photo editing while travelling?<br>

The laptop will mainly be for my trips (mostly outside the U.S.). I often travel for a couple weeks or longer, so waiting until I get home to edit photos is not practical. Will review/edit mostly in a hotel, but also on a plane or train as need be.</p>

<p>Price: under $2500<br>

Display: I already have a 27" iMac, so no need for the suggestion to get any kind laptop and then buy a quality external display. I prefer displays in the following order (unless someone can give some evidence for a different order): IPS, RGB LED, WLED, regular LCD. I have read about the Lenovo Thinkpad T60P but it's too expensive, plus, I would rather have a current model laptop. Also, prefer matte over glossy, but priority goes to panel type.<br>

OS: Irrelevant. I use GIMP for editing photos and am not partial to any other software for video, music, etc. If I get a Windows laptop, I'll mostly likely wipe it and install Ubuntu 10.04, or at least dual boot.<br>

Optical drive: At least CD/DVD burner, Blu-Ray would be nice. Would settle for external optical drive if the display was of high quality.<br>

Size/Weight: 13" - 17". Weight is not an issue.<br>

Memory: 500GB+ would be nice, but not important. Will have an external drive as backup anyway.<br>

Processor: Prefer Core i5, but not a necessity. Will mostly be converting RAW to JPG, editing in GIMP, surfing the net, and watching DVDs.</p>
