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… -
Re: Stalking the shot?
Thanks for the additional comments, guys. Some years ago I visited a place here in AZ called "Out of Africa" where they have a number of lions, tigers, etc. (no bears though). The owners, a man and a woman, interact in the large open pens with the big cats, most all of whom were raised by the park people. Note: They… -
Re: Remote triggers for canon 430EX
Ok...been doing some searching. Excuse the copy & paste. AFAICT the problem is that the 430EX are more sensitive on their sync pin than any other flash. This may be exacerbated by the low sync voltage of the flash, which I measured at around 4.2V. With the receiver connected, a small amount of noise (from the receiver RF… -
Re: Set specific album as landing page from URL
Hi Denise, There are some things I'm good at and others not so much... SmugMug is in my 'not so much' category. After a few hours into this planned conversion, I remember why I ran over to Google+... I'm terrible at smugMug customization. I know it's doable, I just have to get my approach down. There are a number of things… -
Re: High School Sports Photos
Don, I used to do a similar thing to you with Horse events. I used View stations so people could see the pics then order them and we would print them or burn them to disk for them to take home. The only size we offered was 8x12 and if asked ( nicely, ) we would on occasion print 2x5x7's on the one a4 sheet. The guy that… -
Re: Welding - my turn...
Thank you for the kind words.... This was fun to shoot. I poked around dgrin a bit and read up on how others had done it so I had some good starting points. The first shot out of the box was actually not far off from this one exposure-wise, so the settings provided were VERY close to put you in the ballpark if you want to… -
Re: Ano Nuevo - Home of the Elephant Seals
Hi Eric, great to know you have same gear. This is the recipe that is working for me (I always publish anything I learn as I am always bugging others for knowledge): 1) No extender as auto-focus may not work at all and even if it works it is 75% slower by Canon's own admission, so for purposes of wild life it is truly… -
Re: D100 or wait for D70?
I also owned a cheap Nikon bodie and 3 or 4 lenses - Not all Nikon - a 90 Tamron macro - so I was predisposed to Nikon - Nikon I think certainly has the edge in wide angle lenses - whereas Canon seems to offer really nice telephotos with wide aperatures and IS. My first digicam was a Nikon 995 which is a great little… -
Re: Editing photos with an uncalibrated monitor
I did a quick Google search and it seems the TN panel on that model is quite highly praised (and comparable to the Macbook Pro screen of that time). So at a guess you should be 90% there. A quick and dirty way to compare could be to view your images on any other devices you have to see the difference in colors and… -
Re: Where do I start? RAW, CS6, LR4
Welcome Barbara, another Hoosier!! I rec you shoot RAW, and start with Lightroom 4. Lightroom is easier to do Raw rendering with, and simpler to learn than PS. If you cannot get good images with LR, then it may be time to move on to Photoshop for selections and local image editing. If you want to edit with Smart Objects,…
