An acquaintance from many years ago caught a cold, he thought, and lots of weeks of hacking coughs finally went to his Dr. The x-ray caught the shadow and my friend died of lung cancer 11 months later.

Lesson learned: nasty stuff first shows up as a trivial thing.

photoshop plug ins for black and white?

I believe that's what I am doing in the first step after I convert the RAW image to jpeg. But are you suggesting I am missing something?

This is under "Image" >> "Adjustments">> "black and white"

I don't understand the "convert" thing. Once opened in Photoshop an image can be saved in several formats. If you, in fiddling created a layer and not flattened, PS will save as a psd file. Photoshop has a credible B&W tool. I always save an image under an altered name so that the original file does not get monkeyed with. BTW, I don't mess with Lightroom.

The future?

The increase in size and weight is due to the addition of the flip screen on the back, other than that they are just alike.

It seems the 60 gram difference is a lot more than a flip screen.

For Those Wanting a Camera Bag

Neat bag and array of gear. But, pray tell, what is the open-end box-end wrench for? Or maybe there wasn't enough room for the rest of the bicycle repair kit.

Locomotive

I like the 3-D effect on the right-hand wall. How did the artist do it?

Buying a ready-made machine from inventory will get me whatever Apple decided to put in there. It's probably 2 X 4GB. Adding two more 4's would be the economical way to go.

Do the Macs here under duscussion have 2 or 4 RAM ports. If 4, then the added 2 RAMs should be compatible with the first pre-installed RAMs. It takes a real expert to know how much mixing and matching you can get away with.

When is "Good Enough" Actually Good Enough?

To me 'good enough' is whether the photo depicts the scene and its 'mood' as it was. Picture PP is the imposition of changes to suit one's brain which moves what is 'good enough' into the realm of artistry.

Suggestions welcome - please -- on a bridge camera

Is there such a thing as a 'tunnel' camera or right- and left-hand detour camera.

Nikon, Canon and Sony sales down

So the latest and greatest technology of Apple is about to release a new and revolutionary iCamera that will out perform anything every made before. I have it on authority that it involves iProbes that mount on the temples.

If your digital image file actually passes into the pixels.com server, does not mean it becomes the property of the server owners. Would lawyers call that 'implied consent.' I would counsel treading carefully with eyes wide open.

I goofed again. I meant to say "does that not mean". Screwed up what I was trying to say. I been doing a lot of that these days. "Gezzerhood?"
