Re: New product announcement : NitroDesk
Hi Nitro: I would gladly pay in the low $20s for a product if it had the following features: - Delete Photo - Hide Photo - Rotate Photo (Individually or with a bulk selection.) - Caption Photo - Crop Photo - Sort/rearrange photos Now rotate, crop, and hide are still only available in the beta API, so don't worry about… -
Re: Get serious . . . on a budget
I guess you meant ../2196043-O.jpg and no I did not use an exif reader. I manually examined the embedded text using the UNIX command 'strings 2196043-O.jpg | more' ISO 100 1/350 f8 90mm focal length 70-200mm lens exposure Bias = -1 noise reduction 25 sharpness 25 saturation +10 contrast +25 brightness +50 exposure +1.10… -
Re: first impressions :: Fuji XF 80mm f/2.8 macro
So, I picked up a used copy from MPB a few months ago, in the midst of the longest winter ever (we set a record for April snowfall in Mpls). BTW, I was a little ifffy on MPB but the price was reasonable and it arrived exactly as advertised, even with the original packaging, manual, little cover wrap, and all that. My… -
Re: Wedding - 1st contact questions
There are a number of criteria I use to judge whether I'll take a contract:* I talk to them. Face to face if possible, on the phone if not. Do I connect? Do they have a sense of humor that works with mine? Are they fun? What are the chances that they will turn out to be problem children? If you don't listen to your inner… -
Re: R/C Car Racing
<< Any ideas on what I should look for? I don't wanna spend $150 if I don't need to >> Well, for a start, you don't have to use Canon's own - there's a fair range of 3rd party offerings available at far cheaper prices. Also, if you're willing to do a bit of fudging / mackling then it's possible to modify a non-canon one to… -
Re: HS Basketball with new 40D
I think that was one of the biggest problems I had to overcome was cropping in camera. Your brain is like "take it all crop later", but trust me when you get in close with the lens, you really will come up with some spectaular shots, and you will find it hard to "go wide" again. That being said your short lens certainly… -
Re: First day of Fall but Snowy in Arizona
Hi Giphsub. I think you will find everyplace is different. In some areas the birds are very used to being around people and you can almost walk up to them. In other areas (like where I live) it is wide open, very little cover for the birds or people, the birds are very skiddish. I used to try to sneak up on the birds and… -
Re: What to Buy? -- Sportraits
Will, I think I alluded to the basic equipment probably not that clearly but you can get by with a single flash and maybe a collapsible reflector. This will work well for your individual shots...but the team photos are another problem. A single flash just won't give you coverage on team shots. A second flash will certainly… -
Re: Is 72ppi still standard for screen viewing, and optimize image size questions
For screen viewing, the first thing you do is figure out what size image you want to be viewed. That means how many pixels should it have? If you want it to take up most of the screen, then you just have to decide if you're aiming for the lowest common denominator screen or if your audience is more likely to have larger… -
Re: Dynamic range improvement
PS CS may be the answer... Another possibility. I know none of you want to hear something good about the Sigma DSLR's but I thought of a possibility on how you could slove this problem. Sigma Photo Pro is the program that is used to read the raw files out of the SD9 and SD10. The are ways to do this with PS CS but SPP has…
