The original factory paint would have been more muted and there would've been no clearcoat.
It was a major battle to keep the paint looking good and required frequent waxing.
Also back in that era, green automobile paints were notorious for rapid fading and chalking.
One of my elementary school teachers had a 1939 Plymouth.

This is the type of mistake that Dragon Naturally Speaking makes. Easily overlooked in quick look.

It also has a psychological down side-particularly in the medical scene. It is associated with Bile, biliousness and a disquieting feeling.

The second photograph with its darkened sky is really nice. Was it taken with the equivalent of a yellow or light orange filter or was the equivalent postproduction treatment given?

Photography inside the US Air Force Museum at Wright Patterson Air Force Base.

About two years ago I visited the US Air Force Museum at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. I took my Nikon D-80 while many of my companions had their smart phones.

The lighting inside those big hangers is extremely variable. They are illuminated by lights mounted high in the ceiling resulting in a brightly illuminated area on the floor, directly under the light, separated by darker areas well beyond the dynamic range of the Nikon D-80. The end result was that the photographs that I took were poor whereas the ones taken by my companions’ smart phones were really very good.

I realize modern DSL cameras have a wider dynamic range than the old D-80 but I would appreciate advice on what would be the best way to tackle this type of problem.

The ophthalmologist recommended the same thing to me-one eye for reading and one for long distance vision. It seemed a bit ridiculous to me at the time. I also had envisioned having 20/20 vision at infinity but he pointed out that if I awoke in the middle of the night I could walk around the house without glasses and have both distant and reading vision. Naturally I have to wear glasses but I would have to wear them anyway for reading. It was a great recommendation so now I don't need my glasses to find my glasses.

This was very interesting and obviously done by a person with extensive experience and with access to highly sophisticated equipment.

I noticed that it was stated to be high resolution and therefore I was wondering about the Magnification and NA and correction of the objective. I would imagine that normally because of the thickness of the snowflake, it is difficult to get everything into focus and hence the desirability of using focus stacking.

In over 8 inches of snow, my beetle sat on top of the snow; the wheels and suspension hung down and did not reach the ground and the car was not going anywhere.

It certainly is, and with close up photography or macro photography it is far easier to forget about the distance and to evaluate everything on the basis of magnification or, as it is sometimes called, Ratio of Reproduction. This does away with all of the problem about whether wide-angle lenses have a greater depth of field than a long focus lens-they are both the same if the images from the two lenses are the same magnification.

Circle of confusion is certainly extremely important as it depends upon the magnification of the final image. In other words with a poster size print, a smaller circle of confusion would have to be used then for a regular 8 x 10.

I think Godox has the most options on the market. Very reasonably priced.

Ringlights are great at getting light into holes. They were originally made for doing intraoral photography (inside the mouth) The drawback is that the nearly axial lighting is really flat, rendering almost shadowless results. That’s not usually interesting. I think off-camera looks better when done right. I used to teach the dental students to take the flash off the lens for some things to better show the “geography” of the teeth.

I could not agree more.
I always used an off-the-camera flash for autopsy specimens and a 105 mm lens had a long enough working distance to allow the flash to illuminate the subject. This included photographs of eyes and the 105mm lens had the advantage of a better perspective than the 55mm with less distortion from being too close.

Glad you have the V600 working OK with Windows 1o.

I hope you can advise me.

The buttons on the actual scanner do not work. They are not illuminated.

The thing I miss most is being able to make a quick copy of an original- in other words press COPY button on the scanner and a copy comes out of the printer.

Will yours do that?

Is there a comparable one step button in the program visible on the computer screen?

I would appreciate any advice you can give.

Was your scanner completely functional, including the COPY button on the scanner from the initial setup.

The Red eye is the reflection of the light from the blood vessels in the retina-in humans and some animals.

Some of the nocturnal animals have a special extra layer-the tapetum lucidum behind the retina. It amplifies the light to the retina by reflecting back rays that pass thru the retina- a two way pass. In cats the tapetum is green, hence green eye.

See Wikipedia Tapetum lucidum for an excellent account

I bought a V600 too. Scanning of B&W negatives was incredibly good.

At the time it was compatible with Word8 but not 10. The result is that the tabs on the actual scanner do not work.
Consequently it is a multistep procedure to copy one piece of paper- a real loss.

I haven't checked with Epson in several months. Have they solved that problem with 10 yet?
They were waiting for the "factory" to do something.

Yes it does, and does a great job.

But that does not help if you only want to make a quick paper copy- like a regular copier. The buttons on the front of the machine are in active.


One respondent suggested using THE APP. I am not sure how to locate it.
