Re: Altered Images In New York Times Mag
Speaking as someone who was a reporter for 26 years for two major U.S. papers, and someone who teaches news and feature writing, I have to say you're wrong on several counts.. 1. Newspapers did not strive for accuracy because of fear of trial lawyers; they strove for accuracy because that was their mission. Yes, many… -
Re: Why are all of my pictures so dark?
Here's a little-known factoid... M as in Manual isn't what most people think it is when the flash is up. M mode allows you to select your shutter speed and aperture just as it would w/o the flash up, but with one important difference - the camera will read the scene with its almost imperceptible pre-flash and then pick the… -
Re: Phoenix Trip
I'll try Ian. My family traveled from Spokane, Washington, USA to Phoenix, Arizona leaving Tuesday, July 24th and returning on Sunday, July 29th. The total mileage traveled is a bit over 3000 miles. Fairly significant for a family "trip". We traveled by 2 cars and averaged a bit over 700 miles per day. We used the… -
Re: Neutralizing color cast in shadows on white uniforms
Thanks for taking the time to look and comment and for the reassurance that the 2nd image is acceptable. My personal preference though is to try and tone down the cast more which is what I am struggling with. While in the setting of the gym the physics of the situation certainly creates a cast and our perception of the… -
Re: File storage?
Huh, looks like they've completely discontinued it now--the places I've always referred people to have both removed it (eastgear and hyperdrive). Looks like just the new Space model is available (http://www.hypershop.com/shop/index.php)--I'd check on current reviews of that as there were some teething problems reported… -

Re: The Day before
Well I just got back. I will post some shots in the days to come. Well St Murphy did strick. Luckily I was prepared. I had a couple lens problems and had to drop the digital and go to the film body a couple times. Luckily I had a great assistant with Beernuts being there and he got the shots I couldn't. We also had some… -
Re: Canon Pixma Pro9000 vs Pro9500?
Thanks ... yes, pigmented inks are known for greater longevity. They are also known for metamerism, where the colors/reflectiveness of the pigments deposited on the surface of the print shift when viewed from an angle (although that effect is said to be much less with the newest generation of pigmented inks/printers). Here… -
Re: An update!
I have an Elan IIe and an EF 28-80 3.5-5.6 zoom lens. Both can be automatic but my teacher has banned that feature of my camera and lens lol. He says I will be in big trouble if I ever come to class with it on the AF setting. So for the most part I just try and forget that I have that feature for now. Chlorophyll pills,…
