Re: Photos Slow To Load When Viewing
Trend is pretty good as far as virus scanners go. You might want to check and make sure you're not running more than one. Also, when you say "through your phone" do you mean DSL? The 100ms latency isn't great but I've seen longer and it does affect performance. If you can, try doing this: Open a terminal window and type… -
Re: What's the most unusual lens you have?
Pentacons were made from 1956 up until the dissolution of the company, VEB Pentacon, in 1992. I think my model comes from around 1968. Their 35mm cameras went under the praktica name. VEB pentacon grew (somehow) out of a combination of Zeiss Ikon and other companies that were sovietized into VEB PEntacon in 56. The… -

Unfortunately our coach has recieved some REALLY bad press from ESPN and FOX news in the last couple weeks for a play that… -

Re: Extender EF 1.4x II?
Thanks to everyone for their input Went and took some test shots between rain storms yesterday on the soccer pitch. My 210mm with the converter was over kill. It was seemed to really slow down the AF and I had to push the exposure compensation 1.25 stops to get a usable image. Kind of interesting thing was when I used it… -

Re: Heads up: aRGB and Prophoto files now converted to sRGB on upload
Just a bystander, I hope you don't mind me chiming in. In the 2 pics that baldy posted, the skin tones in the aRGB one are bluish on my monitor. In the smugmug help files (which use info from dan margules I believe) we learn this: The surprising power of cyan On pleasing photos, cyan usually falls between 30% to 50% of the… -

Re: Canonians and Nikonians: what to get?
Not only for landscape. Also for groups and indoor pictures. Next to this "walkaround" lens, and the zoom, a wider lens might also somewhere on the horizon (like a 12-24 or something like that). But at least for a year, what I'm getting now will not be updated, so I can't be too limited in the wide range right now. When I…
