Re: 4 Horse Fans
oh boy.. I havn't owned or ridden a horse since... prolly 98 :( It's a sad story. Mostly because we always ended up moving. I had outgrown my first horse (a very small appy mare) when we moved from alabama to oklahoma. I was 14, and she went to a 9 year old who took her on to win national hunter/jumper championships. In… -
Re: tripod vs lens?
I may be late with an opinion, but here it is anyway. If you are using anything but a full frame or film body I would not get the 100mm f2. I'd never discourgage someone from investing in a prime, but I find the 85 1.8 on my 20D a TOUCH long for wedding portraits, and I would not want to go longer. For the price I'd get a… -
Re: Goodbye Mac, Hello HP Elitebook 8770w
A week later and we are up to speed - and then some........... This has been an interesting experience - not fun, but the end result is more than worth it. While editing the cuda_supported_cards file in Adobe will make PPCS6 pick up the nVidia GPU - it will not run. ANY changes to sequence presets - like selecting DSLR… -
Re: Mac or Windows?
Hey man, I used to use only windows--programmed and everything. built several computers with it and was always falling back on Linux because I'd get frustrated with the instability of the windows kernel and operating system. the only problem I had with Linux was that it was time consuming to make a lot of hardware… -
Re: Full sized CMOS chip any time soon?
Here is some good speculation about this, which makes sense to me. The part that makes to most sense to me is the business part. Let's just suppose that Canon can put a 12mp full frame sensor in a 20D sized body and sell for $1500. Would they do it now? No. Their whole line is selling like hot cakes. You have to get in… -
Re: Facebook as a business tool?
I'm not a lawyer either, but be aware that 98% of the Facebook terms of service are the same as the terms of service for most sites that involve shared user content, including Smugmug. This is because a service must have your permission to copy, store, transmit, etc. your files to multiple servers internationally and… -
Re: New camera combo - opinion
Thanks for all your anwers! They made my mind more clear. Because of the budget I have, I guess I won't be moving to FF in a few years - let say 3 years at least - unless the "thing" (profitable works) that we (me and my friend) are gonna start to do, allow us to upgrade the gear. So for now I'll forget the FF cameras and… -
new photo processing computer ...
I've been away from DG for quite a while, looking forward to renewed contribution here. My most immediate interest is deciding on a new photo processing computer. I'm a long-time PC guy, being dragged kicking and screaming to Mac. Well, not really kicking and screaming, I've invested a good deal of time at our local Apple… -

Re: 30D +EF-S or 5D
So why do you prefer the 5D to the 30D? I really think that for most of us (those that print 8.5 x 11 or smaller) the MP Wars are mute. I've been tossing the 5D vs. the 'N' ball around for some time now (as I stash away a buck here and a buck there). I've used a 5D on occassion and the N ... I don't see a significant…
