Re: Sonoma and Napa being devastated by wild fires today.
Sorry, it's been a dicey week. The small fire that was entirely too close to my home is now contained and they think will be out today/tomorrow. I'm still a little tempted to live out of a suitcase, but I'm trying hard to trust the fire dept. The 3 big fires are still going. The 10,000 + fire fighters are getting a handle… -
Re: Shooting in a Barn
Thanks Pathfinder, I love my 70-200 2.8, so it really is my primary lens. I was probably rather funny looking when shooting the pictures of the girl on the paint horse jumping in the indoor. I had the D50 with the 70-200 (because it has fairly usable ISO 1600 shots) and then the D80 with the 50mm and the jumps were 4… -

Re: Question For You Guys!
You bring up a good point- Digital can really make people lazy, and they need to realize that there's a price on that laziness. With film, the price used to be very arbitrary, because we ALWAYS just paid a lab to do our printing, and they just corrected our mistakes for us. It pretty much cost us the same to process and… -
Re: FS: DA Bigma - EOS MOUNT
Good Morning Bubble, Let's address your concerns 1 atta time 1) Yes it's a heavy lens, but most all super zooms are. However, some people use this as a walk around lens. Granted, they played pro football or were former power lifters, but some DO use this as a walk around lens. Just depends on your needs. 2) Picture quality… -
Re: Meet Lindsey-Sr 2008
I apprecite the bit on skin tones. I think one of my kids fiddled with my monitor brightness. Not sure how it happened, but 5 of us do share this desktop. Anyway, it wasn't a pretty scene when I decided to recalibrate AFTER I had run these all through lightroom. My highlights and black points looked like hell. I like 2 and… -
Re: Best camera & lens for $1700?
I am following a community course at the moment and enjoying it. It is part of the Belgian adult education system so professionally run and it is so basic that some people need to be taught how to turn the camera on. I joined up initially because my wife wanted to go and thinks we need to do more together. Despite having… -

Re: Mamiya Cameras???
Mamiya have been around for a very long time and specialise in larger format equipment. Mamiya are now owned by (or they bought??) Phase One. If you've not heard of Mamiya I'll assume you've not heard much about Medium or Large format film (apologies if you have) - so a brief history lesson. Medium format film is larger… -
Re: Studio portraits advice with lighting
The biggest problem with multiple lights is their ability to produce repeatable results consistantly. If you have two lights with a variability of 1/3 stop per light between shots, you can be up to 2/3 stop difference between the lights during a shot. 2/3 stop difference is more than enough to be visible. A lot of the…
