Re: Monitor
The Spyder Pro does not allow you to set a target brightness in the same manner as you would with the Spyder Elite. The Elite has a dedicated module for this and it works really well. You set the value you want to see, i.e. 120 cd/m2, and the Elite's software gives an active semi real time (click to update) screen to see… -
Re: First Attempt At Pin-Up - PG Rated
OK... Bryce emailed two shots to me so I can take a crack at processing them. I worked on one today after I got home from work. I'm hoping I can walk you guys through my processing steps without being too confusing. I'm not great at this tutorial thing so bear with me please. OK... so before I jump into the the steps, I… -
Re: The SM identity crisis... and what to do about it
From what I saw when I was looking around last year for a reasonably priced profit sharing picture host, Smugmug offers A LOT for it's price point. Pictage's upfront investment can be $200 a month IIRC, while smugmug is $150 a year. However, and the reason I found this thread, I had very few sales on the few events I did… -
Re: My First Event ...I NEED HELP
To put this as plainly as I can, If you stick with your current plan, you are going to crash and burn BADLY and Loose a lot of money in addition to upsetting a lot of people and ruining your reputation with this organisation.

My wife's birthday happened to coincide with the last week we had a free rental car, so we decided to hit the… -
Re: Filters question
I can't give you a definite answer, but I can share a bit of what I've discovered over the past few days as I had the same questions. Filters for protection of lens elements: Seems to be split down the middle; there are some anecdotal stories about impacts w/ sticks, rocks, etc. that broke the filter and the owner was… -
Re: Senior Reps
But to answer the question about ambassaduers..... I used them, but a bit different than others. I used people that were referred from the previous year's seniors or those that approached me while I was doing team pics at the HS. I would do a 2-3 out fit session in early March so that they would have photos finished by… -
Re: Interested in wedding photography
I'm not sure how many other people here had a LONG experience as an assistant. But I can tell you of my experience which included 5 years of assisting. I managed a retail portrait studio for 2 years, full time rewarding but crappy salary job. When my first son was born I decided that I wanted to stay home with him full… -
Re: Foldio 2 vs Litebox Vs Elviros light boxes
To explain further, these cheap LED strings do not have good color purity because they lack a continuous spectrum. Some colors will appear horrible in the camera. My first recommendation is to use compact electronic flash to illuminate the subject. Most modern electronic flash "do" have a continuous color spectrum and will… -
Re: Triathlons - Anyone done them?
Well done! Sounds like you are quickly Fine tuning your setup. If you are not going to always be able to get a place to set up, I'd suggest you look at getting one of those pop up gazebo's from ebay. I got a 6x3M one and it's far exceeded my expectations. It was cheap as and the thing has done a load of outdoor events in…
