It equalizes the air between the two tires.

If you have a "long" lens the I would guess it is the shadow of lens while using flash.

Thanks DJ.

Good idea and simple to do.

[quote=big-guy]This is a 2 problem question. 1. add info to metadata. 2. present a slide show that shows this information.

Lightroom will do both for you very easily. ............


Thanks big guy,

I do not have Lightroom but have a friend that uses it so I will take your advise with his coaching.

I think to get the project going we are going to import the images into Power Point, adding a caption, copy- paste that caption to the metadata file, when done save it to a .pps file. The .pps file can be viewed by anyone (no need to have Power Point) but we will have the information in the metadata and then can try to extract that later on. The project got moved up this weekend so I have to get moving faster that I wanted but at least we will get the information stored on the image file.

By the way, have a friend in Sarnia, ON love the area (Blue Water Bridge(s) and up to Tobermory. He has kids in the Toronto area.

[quote=jerryc41]You can try Exif Pilot.

Thanks Jerry,
I will look in to these. We have just started the project so I have some time to find the best (easiest) way of doing this.

I have always appreciated your contributions.

[quote=Apaflo]I use Exiftool extensively; however, I use it on Linux systems in Bash scripts so only the actual Exiftool commands and options would be the same, but not the interaction between it and other programs.

Thanks Apaflo

I will start to see what I can come up with. This certainly is a good start!

Thanks, I have been messing around with computers since DOS 3.0 so I can get around OK. I will look into Exiftool.

I am helping a friend sort and scan about 2000 slides dating back to 1955 to 1980 that his father took. Aside from getting them in digital form he would like to capture and display notes about the scene (people and places) when they are viewed on a computer or TV. In my opinion the best place to put the information is in the Exif data then it will be forever with the photo. I know of know way of displaying the Exif information on the screen the same time as the image. Other than that, we could use PowerPoint or a similar program putting the notes on the same power point slide. The problem is he wants these to be shared with the family and to be long lasting so putting the information in another program that may not be here in 20 years or so does not seem to be the best way to go.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks
Craig

I am sure you checked, but make sure your lens in not switched to manual

All you need is a tablet.

2nd vote for the Ravpower option. Works well with SD to portable hard drive. On board battery, recharged with cell phone plug. You would need a tablet to do the file transfer.

I just purchased a "RavPower" unit and it will transfer from SD cards to a storage device such as a portable hard driver or thumb drive. Simple to use and inexpensive ($40.00) from B&H. It also will become a bridge, a router or it will charge cell phone etc. from it's internal battery. I bought it for an upcoming trip to Hawaii and it will allow me to only take my tablet and leave the laptop at home (backing up the SD cards). It uses the same cord as my cell phone and tablet to recharge so therefore no extra charging unit. Takes a little getting used to but works well and seems to be well built.

I have my "standard settings" which I reset the camera to after a shooting session.
White balance =Auto
ISO = 100
Metering = Center
Focus Area= Single point
Focus Mode = Auto
Aperture Priority
F Stop - ~ F8
Lens 18-300 (Nikon D7200)
VR = on

From there I reset the camera (or change the lens) to the situation. At least I know where I am at when I start a new session. These "standard settings" has made my life much easier.

Next trip to Jackson visit Thomas Mangelsen's Gallery just north of the square.

I have PSE 14 also and found they hid the panorama feature in "Guided-Photomerge". Once you get there then it operates the same as other versions.
