If that is a Photoshop message it may simply be an alert. Photoshop probably can’t tell you have a tablet connected and it is simply telling you that the feature won’t work unless you have a pressure sensitive tablet connected.
Thx. But the pen pressure feather is not working properly and when I was viewing a Youtube video and the user turned on this feature that warning did not show up on his screen.
For some reason when I turn on Pen Pressure setting, in Brush Settings, I get a warning triangle with a question mark in it. The warning states: "Control by Pen Pressure requires the use of a pressure-sensitive tablet. Now I have the Wacom Tablet Properties set to Photoshop and I have installed the latest Wacom tablet driver (6.6.37-3). I don't understand why I'm getting this warning. Help!
I have not been able to download the application. Keep getting the message " We're having trouble connecting. ... please try again. On the webcast, they said that you needed to turn off your firewall and then do the download, so I did that and I still get the "... having trouble..." and no file. I think I had this same problem with Luminar 3 and they sent me the file w/ "msi" extension. So now I wait for CS to get back with me on how to download the file because turning off my firewall does not work.
DXO PhotoLab 2, came with the NIK collection. Does DXO PhotoLab 3, provide access to NIK?
On an APC camera (T6i) your best bet is the EF 50mm f/1.8.

My first experience with the tap-in was with the D500 and the 18-400. My thoughts were with the focusing of the D500 and the capability of fine tuning the 18-400 I should have a great combination. It was definitely a learning experience and test of my patience and frustrations. One of the main lessons learned was not to have the tripod an thick carpet while doing the setup...probably common sense for most...but I learned it the hard way.
The biggest problem with the tap-in...Tamron did not provide a decent set of instructions. It told how to input the settings...but nothing on the best way get the proper numbers. Also they provided no info as to distances for infinity adjustments. At the time there wasn't much information on line to help out. I wound up sending the 18-400 back...mostly because the VC wasn't strong enough for my 75 year old hands.
Recently I purchased the 70-200 G2 and with much more info on the internet...had pretty good results in setting up the focus fine tuning. Still haven't done the infinity adjustments...just haven't found a good target to use at the recommended distances provided by Tamron customer services:
(900 X focal length / 25.4 = inches / 12 = feet)
My first experience with the tap-in was with the D... (

I must be missing something with the math:
(900 X 200 max focal length 70-200 G2 {180,000}/ 25.4 = 7,086 inches / 12 = 590 feet
So the distance from the camera to target is 590 feet! Wow, using that same calculation on Tamron 150-600, the distance from the camera to target is 1,771 feet. What I'm Missing!
If you have multiple cameras then only apply Tap-in results to the camera body, not the lens.

If you are shooting raw, always in post processing. If you are letting the camera produce jpegs, many cameras automatically apply a lens profile for the manufacturer's lenses. By this I mean don't expect a Canon camera to apply a lens profile to a Sigma lens.
Yes, I shoot raw but I turned off profile correction in camera because I read so where that this slow the camera done in writing files. Instead, I use a preset in Lightroom to apply profile correct to all photos during
import. So my follow-up question does in-camera profile correction apply raw images or just Jpegs?

I'm a raw shooter and have lens profile corrections set to be automatically applied to every image I edit. Why wouldn't you want lens distortion corrections applied to each image?
Quick question - where do you perform profile corrections: in camera or post-processing?

How important is it? What is the best method? DIY or camera shop? Is it worthwhile to calibrate a zoom lens? If so what focal lengths? Example: Tamron 70-200 2.8 G2
I use FoCal software to calibrate all my lenses. Certain Canon camera allows for micro adjustments to both wide and tele end of zoom lenses. I also have a Tamron Tap-In console which allows me to input adjustments into the lens as opposed to the camera body for Tamron lenses. However, I have multiple camera bodies and use my Tamron lenses on both cameras, so I do input micro adjustment into the lens only the body.
FoCal works well for me!
Hi, we are planning a trip to Noah's Ark, and I have a couple of questions:
(Equipment I have: 70D and 5dM4, Lenes I want to could use for this [I want to take no more two lenses and maybe a flash] )
1. EF-Ss 24mm f/2.4, 40mm f/2.4, 10-18mm, 18-135mm STM; EF 50 f/1.8, 85mm 1.8, 100mm f/2, 24-70 f/2.8, 24-105mm f/4, 70-200mm f/4. Which camera and two lenses?
2. How was the picture taking the experience with the lighting inside Noah's Ark?
3. Would I need a wide angle lens (10-18mm) to take a picture of the entire outside of the Ark?
Thanks for your recommendation!
Does Canon recommend storing IS Lenses with the IS powered on or off?
