HDR
whitehall wrote:
I am exploring HDR possibilities. Two questions:

1. which does a better job Lightroom Classic or Photoshop.

2. When I transfer images as layers from Lightroom under the edit function, photoshop will not allow either a focus stack or hdr because “the images had not been saved.” While I can go to my external HD, my preference woild be to everything in LR. What am I missing

Thanks.


My Sony HX99V does up to 6 stops HDR. It will give me two images. One is straight up and the other is a composite of up to 6 separate exposures and the camera then combines the best of each. Sweet.

Dust in my Lens
S_ _ t happens. Especially to a lens that has seen some years. But fear not, a little dust should not effect the final result.

Repairing gray market gear
pendennis wrote:
Nikon and their repair facilities won't touch gray market items for repair. You'd have to send the item back to the country of manufacture for repair. Nikon requires serial numbers for everything, and they know what was Nikon, USA, and what isn't.


Send it to country of origin only for warranty work. Otherwise most camera repair shops can repair Nikon.

$1k 4 year "pro" protection plan for $10k camera?
petelush wrote:
If you were buying a $10k camera (Fujifilm's new 100 mp) would you buy the $1k "pro" 4 years protection plan? (And no, I've never seen snark on this site that was clever enough to be worth reading.)


I'm not buying it.

Lens calibration

Please share your reasons and your evidence if you have any. I am sorry, but otherwise your statement is not convincing.


None of my 350 Brides asked me if my lenses were calibrated. My award winning photo judges never asked if my lenses were calibrated. My more than 20 AF n Nikon lenses never needed calibration to produce tack sharp 20X30 images.

Lens calibration

What way is that? With all due respect, have you looked at the link? Are you willing to consider actual tested facts or just rely on unsubstantiated opinion? If you can demonstrate that the test is wrong, or if you have tested and found different results, please post them.

Cheers


So sorry. U are wrong.

Bill, please read the link above of an actual teat at various distances that I just posted and see if you still think that.


Lens calibration does not work that way. Sorry.

Lens calibration

I have to wonder about any product that has almost 40% 1 or 2 star ratings?


Agreed. Many many folks just don't get it. Lens calibration is good for only one distance
Regardless of whatever folks have to say here. And many folks screw it up and lens ends up worse than when they started.

Shutter count

How do I get the shutter count on my Canon 60D?

Magic Lantern scares me and "shutter count" works with Mac only (I have windows)

Any better way?

Selling an Ashai Pentax Spotmatic 35mm camera
ChiefEW wrote:
I bought this camera in 1967 while stationed overseas. What is the best way to sell this camera and a few lens that would go with it?
Thank you.

Go to ebay, look up your stuff, go down the left column and find sold for, or sold, and find what they are getting for your stuff. Not much probably, might be worth donating to camera club or high school if they want it.

Photos for 18 by 24 Frame
nana989 wrote:
I have 3 18 x 24 frames from Hobby Lobby that I want to put matted landscape photos in for display in my home. I ordered 12 by 18 prints because I wanted the full frame photo. After seeing them and putting them inside the frame, my first instinct is the frame and mat will dwarf the 12 x 18 photographs. Are there any standard recommendations for photo / mat/ frame sizes or is it a matter of personal taste? If not, what is your personal preference for print and mat sizes with this frame size? I realize now, I should have bought the frame after the prints. Hobby Lobby sells so many of this size frames , I feel I’m missing out on what size other than a poster it was intended for.

I use a custom framer, I use a 3 inch mat on my 18X24 and 12X18 prints.

cleaning your lens
haren wrote:
i have had my lens for years what would be the proper method to give them a good cleaning. I keep them covered when not in use but there must be build up on them over the years.


Zeiss wipes. The reason I like these is that they go into the field nicely. It is the only thing I use.

Recommendations for Creating Photo Books
qualtalk wrote:
Greetings!

We are going to produce a series of photo books to give as gifts to our clients. We are anticipating that these will include one of my images on the right-hand side of the book and an inspirational quote on the facing left-hand page.

Can you share your recommendations for printers or online services we could use to print these?

Thanks in advance for your help!
