Some time back I downloaded a EXIF viewing software on the UHH site that allowed me to view the EXIF data on UHH downloads. Well.....my desktop will not allow me to log in for whatever reason so I'm now using a lap top that I keep as a backup. I've searched the site for EXIF downloads but am unable to find one that was like the one I was using. Can anyone suggest one to use? At this point I just want one to see the EXIF information on UHH downloaded images if it has not been removed by the poster.

Also, is there anyone who could shed some light on what may be causing the log on issue on my desktop? I get this message:

The user profile service failed the logon.
User profile cannot be loaded.

I'm using Windows 7 Professional, and my password is correct and I can boot up using the "Safe Mode" so the hard drive doesn't seem to have crashed. Is there another way to bypass using a password to log on? Many thanks for any help/ideas that anyone could share.

There are, without a doubt, excellent camera stores who have featured mail order services.

But it occurred to me that we still need to endorse our -local- camera stores, especially if they have an excellent reputation.

To begin, I'd like to endorse Schiller's Camera store here in St. Louis, here for more than 100 years, and outstanding staff. I've purchased my Canon 5DII from them, and along with that 3 L series lenses. They are always my "go to" store, not only for the equipment, but also for opinions and advice. I know all of you would agree with me in saying that we NEED to support our local camera stores. So I'm beginning that here with: www.schillers.com

I hope no one minds my beginning thread.

I figured this was the best forum to ask since the experts hang out here. My wife and I and a couple of photography friends are thinking about a trip to the sunshine state. I'm guessing early spring is best due to birds migrating in, but would January be not so good? Also, we would obviously include time in the everglades (probably the north area). But I've read about a lake where there are many, many Ospreys nesting. I believe a local guide will take you out on a boat. Any suggestions on a week-long general itinerary? Oh, one last question: I've always wanted to catch an egret during breeding season with the green head and puffed up feathers. When do they display like that?

Hi everyone, I have had the Canon 100-400 for 2-3 years and I have been very challenged with the connection to my Canon 7D Mark 11. The connection will frequently fail when I pull up the camera to photo BIF, stills on monopod, good weather and bad weather. I have cloth-cleaned the connections on the lens and on the camera and air cleaned them after. It doesn't happen with my 24-70mm Canon L lens. The only way to get the camera to work again is to turn it off and back on and start over with my focus, etc. Anyone else have these issues with this lens? If so, how did you fix it, please?
