Ok fellow Hoggers, now you have done it.
A little history, back in my high school and college days (1963-1970), I managed a camera store, was my own best customer due to a case of GAS. One of the "gadgets " I acquired was a Hasselblad 500C.
Recent posts made me get out. Now testing, everything seems fine. Will know when first roll of film is processed. Always wanted the 250mm lens, 54 years ago, but it cost about $2000. Found one on EBay for $125. I am taking a chance. I've wasted $100 many times before.
Incidentally, 120 Kodacolor film was 96 cents, and processing was $3.12 for 12 prints 1970.
B&W film was $6.75 yesterday. Need to find a processor for B&W, local lab will only do color for $23.00 per roll. May have to go to color just to see if camera and "lens" work.
That's my story and I am sticking to it.
Get cured of GAS. Learn to use all the stuff I bought in 2018 starting with Lightroom.
Thanks for the info. I did download to desktop using AOL so maybe not the problem. Laptop is 8 gigs, should ok. I will check disk space. But should be OK, there is not much on the laptop.
Received one piece of advice from IT guy at work...."s... happens, try it again, if download fails forget it and use your desktop". Could be right?
Yes, the computer is new.
You must be a night owl it's 10:30 in New York. Will be in NYC next week picking out my Christmas present at B&H
Fellow Hoggers, help, advice, answers please. I tried to download and install LR on my laptop, what a disaster. I used AOL for internet access. LR installed 25% and stopped at that point for an hour. I decided to "quit install", as I thought there was a malfunction. "Quit install" ran for a hour, I gave up and went to task manager in Windows 10 to stop all processes computer crashed. Black screen labeled "safe mode". Ended up resetting computer and reinstalling all programs.
Where did I go wrong?
Thanks for help, advice, etc.
Merry Christmas
Again thanks for all the help.
I finally got the transfer to work direct from LR when I used a new higher quality disc.
I am new to LR. Trying to export a collection to a CD. The collection is in RAW format, trying to export in JPEG. I think I am following the instructions in LR help, but no luck.
I get messages concerning the CD. I use a different CD, no luck. Thought I was on the right track, the progress bar showed everything was OK. Then, got message that transfer could not be completed.
Where should I look for the problem? The disc, the drive, LR. Help.
How can you find out the shutter count on a Nikon D750. I have one, just wondering.
Most helpful, thanks. I knew a Hogger would get me on the right track.
I use a Nikon 750 and just purchased a Canon Pixma 100, great rebate. I want to get maximum results but need help. What are the advantages of Lightroom over PSE?
