There are a few 3D images posted here each day and I was wondering how to create those. I have a Canon R6, is there a way with this camera to create 3D images, or is it done in post processing? if post, how?
Thanks,

Some years ago, I mounted 2 AV-1's side by side on a single bar I made, that mounted on top of my tripod. Then using cable releases, aligned them up at the same object in the view finders, shot them together, at the same time. Then, taking the 2 rolls of film to be developed, keeping the film from the left camera as role #1, and the other identified as roll #2. When I got the prints back, I trimmed and mounted the prints on a stereo viewing card, that was viewed in a 1903 sterioscopic viewer. Looked beautiful. Don't know now, if it could be done now with the newer digital cameras. Give it some thought, and give it a try. You might find one of those 3D viewers at a antique shop somewhere. Good luck!

My old D7000 still works like when it was new. So, considering the market, I think I'll keep shooting with it, rather than upgrading to something else. I use it with BBF and have gotten very used to it, and fluid in my photos. This camera has served me very well since it came out new, so, guess I'll keep it going as long as it keeps shooting. Are there any others out there who still use the D7000 Nikon ?

Recently when I tried to download photos on Picasa, the Import From box doesn't list anything I can import from. My camera isn't listed, nor anything else I can click on to start the import process. Does anyone know how to add a program to the Import From box? Thanks.
I've been using Picasa for years now, and I just insert the SD card from my camera, into the card slot on the computer, and download to a photo file on the desktop. Then, when I open Picasa, the photo files upload to it. Easy as pie. The photo files are stored on your hard drive, not in picasa, but Picasa will display all the photo files that are on your computer's hard drive and maintain the PP done to them back to whatever photo file folder you select. Picasa works well for me.

I am thinking about buying this lens. Does anyone here have it? What do you think about it?
I bought this lens a good wile back, and love it. It's my go to lens, 90% of the time. Works great with BBF. Thought it was a cheep lens, but after some comparison to some others, it's a quality tough lens that will stand up quite well. BUY IT! You won't be disappointed.

If your familiar with Coken filters, then maybe you can use the 4 Point star filter. I have used these filters with good effects when a starburst is desired on a shinny object. You can also make your own filter with a little know how by scratching the clear plastic filter media in two opposing directions, and fitting it over the end of your camera lens. Practice a little, to obtain proper effects. You may be surprised.

Some time back I downloaded a EXIF viewing softwar... (show quote)
foxfirerodandgun: I use the old Picasa 3 program on my Windows 7 pro. Take any photo from the photo gallery and download it to a folder on your desktop, then open it in Picasa 3, select it and open in view, select properties, and there on the right side of the photo will be all the EXIF info for the photo. Hope this will help, I don't know if perhaps another program can do this or not but it works for me. Good Luck; Denny

I've used this lens on my D7000 for several years now, and at first, seamed to be not so sharp. Did the in-camera lens calibration and all, nothing seamed to work. Then, later, I went to BBF and started shooting manual, 250-400/at F8 with auto ISO. Bingo! Suddenly my photos became very sharp and clear. Can't really explain it, but it worked for me. Maybe someone here can shed some light on how this made the difference.

Went to Glakes on 30MAR65. Anyone remember camp Moffett and Porter? Joined CG after first hitch in Navy and retired with 22 years. Had a great time! Anybody out there on USS Springfield from '65 - '67?
Served July 24, 1961 to July 23, 1967. Went to Great Lakes, and YES! I remember Moffett & Porter. Hated marching to classes with those dumb looking back packs on your but. I was in Co 314. We got the Drill flag, our sister company got all the rest of them. Ross Field, We were sharp, lol. Went to VT-2 Whiting Field, Milton, Florida for 2 years, then to Norfolk, VA with VP-24. From plain captain, to Crew member. T-28's to P2V-7's. Wished many times that I would have shipped over. Took photos out of the nose(bow) of the Neptune, at surface vessels. Wild!

Very good Denny.
Appreciate your comment. This was the first Flycatcher I've had the chance to photograph, he posed nicely.

It is unlikely to be a Couch's Kingbird since the only place in the US that they are found is in far south Texas, it's a tropical species.
Possibly a Great Crested Flycatcher, they are an eastern species and have the rufous on the wings and tail that I'm seeing here.
Otherwise, ???

Thanks Rick, I believe it's a Great Crested Flycatcher too.
