Being an Army Armourer, I can tell you it was the same as now with 0.50"cal BMG and 0.30"Browning MG's.
Mainly here on M113 APC's.
Called "coaxially mounted" machine guns.

How to apply lens correction in import for LR5

avengine wrote:

I am using LR5 and find the lens profile that using sigma lens to correct my photos is very good. I want this setting to apply when I import the photos.
How to do this?
thanks.

Import first, then set it in "lens correction" on the first image,
then Highlight first image in "library", then select all,
if more than one, then "sync" in lower right side of the library page.
Only done on imported images.

As far as I know.

Gun Question

edfed wrote:

Jerry,

I was in Nam and when we were on patrol, we kept our finger on the guard and not on the trigger. If you inadvertantly stepped in a hole with your finger on the trigerr, two things could happen: One you could fire your weapon and alert the enemy to your position, and or two, you could accidently shoot your fellow solider in front of you. Obviously. neither one a good senario.

Yes.
If you have your finger in the trigger and you accidentally move your hand, et cetera, you can bump the trigger and give away your position, or worse, shoot yourself or your mate.
When entering a vehicle or helicopter, you put safety on and, or unload. And opposite when about to exit, depending on the situation,tactical or not.
At least, when trained properly.

How to Pack Equipment for Flight

PinUpPro wrote:

I have a wedding to photograph in July in Pennsylvania. What suggestions do you have for packing DSLR's, lenses, tripod, poles, extra flash heads, SD cards? I don't want anything broken, stolen, mislaid, etc. I am also worried about the cards on the return trip; should I download the images in a safe place before leaving? Thanks in advance for your advice.

What a coincidence..
I'm going to Transylvania also..
I might see you there.
I can only travel after sundown.
I'll have to use very high ISO or use infrared.
No flash, please...

You introduced the tern here: http://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-201213-1.html#3409950 If you did not mean it, or did not understand it, you should not have posted the term "digital zoom".

Enlarging the LCD image for fine focusing is old hat. Works quite will for lunar photography, and other difficult focusing situations, especially with a HoodLoupe. This technique is not called 'digital zoom'.

I forgot that you were such an ex-spurt
and that no-one should attempt to help
someone else, because you should have
told the fellow this in the first place,
without me wasting my time.
It's people like you that make people say
"F...K IT. WHY SHOULD I BOTHER."

For christ's sake !
It is not digital zooming or cropping !
It is zooming with the lense !
Then using live view !
Then zooming-in, in live view !
Then focusing with a finer adjustment
by moving the camera back and forth !
It is NOT digital zooming !
What part of that do you not understand ?
Try it, you will see !
Unless you only want to quote phrases and
not experiment !!!!!!

Digital zoom is merely cropping within the camera, which results in a much smaller pixel count, and a drop in resolution.

NO......
SLR:
Zoom in with the lense.
Then use live view zoom to
"Look" closer to subject and physically
move the "camera" in and out until
to a clear focus.
This is not "digital cropping".

It is tried and true.
It is using the lense zoom.
The live view is only an aid to
"seeing" closer for focus.

They're great. I use them on my 70-200mm
f/2.8.
That way I can move further away and less
chance of shadow.
Use live view and then digital zoom in, then
focus by looking at live view and move the
camera in and out.

Can the original guy actually explain what he wants
to do, instead of all this garbage going on ??
Or am I silly for bringing commonsense into
the equation ??

You're not telling what you actually want to do.
You're only telling that you set "something"
up and "it" doesn't work and it's frustrating.
