Re: lp-E6 battery
I don't have any of the third-party batteries that properly register with the host camera body, but I understand that they "should" charge with a Canon LC-E6 charger (the Canon charger that should have come with the Canon 7D camera.) I suggest that it would be best to just order a "kit" which has at least a couple of the… -
Re: i need a new monitor
You're now trying to squeeze blood from stone. If your S3Elite is a good copy, imho you're not going to see a (big enough) difference with the ColorMunki Display or i1Display Pro to justify another $250 spent imho. Dry Creek recently updated their calibrator article. The S3Elite is neither best nor worst and considering it… -
Venus, Mercury, and Sunset
Today was an interesting day. Following spending 11 hours over the weekend (and 2 more hours debugging today), I wrote some software to properly process astrophotos the way I want them to be processed (the real way ;) ). Anyway, I took a bunch of photos of Venus and Mercury around 1PM today and I also took some photos of a… -
Re: Vegas - night shots in particular
I'm working from memory here, and as much as that place changes it might be too stale... but here's some ideas of locations that google earth's sat images seem to imply might still work: 1. Hardrock hotel parking ramp. (north of the casion, on Paradise between Flamingo on the north and Harmon on the south.) 2. The Rio… -

Re: Why is smugmug so slow tonight???
I was able to browse the gallery once - after we had been out for several hours earlier today. Most of my other galleries are fine - just a couple in the Family category it seems at the moment are the trouble makers. My motorsports site seems ok, too. Tracert as follows: Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] (C)… -
Re: ISO vs. Price; a.k.a. Choosing a Camera
The images you see on the internet are only previews of the full size image and nowhere near the actual size and amount of pixels needed to print a photo at a huge resolution needed for a 24"x36" photo. Here's what I mean: Most previews are from 400-1000 pixels in the long dimension and they're from images originally MUCH… -
Re: A Smugmug world with color-managed browsers
I'd gladly wait a bit longer for a quality image. I'd gladly allow you to lower the file size to the same amount the profile takes up (or more) to ensure the image previews properly. We're talking images here! First of all, if you're going to make up stat's like this, please provide where they came from. 2nd, it doesn't… -
Re: Yet another inspirational Thrilling Wonder daily blog
Surreal Speaking of surreal! I just drove through Nevada accross HWY 50 then down 93, wow what a surreal place. Ok, let me explain in brief first, then take a few additional words. It is my observation that landscape photography is looking more surreal than it did 18 years ago when I began, Leping is a perfect example!… -
