Lightroom 5 upgrade disc
Recently I had to reload LR5 after a hard disc failure. I had to install my full version of LR3 and use the Licence numbers for my LR4 & 5 upgrades to get LR5 back running. It would not let me jump from 3 to 5

Lightroom 5 upgrade disc
All sorted now, downloaded the free trial version then used my upgrade disc serial number and hey presto LR5! Glad to hear that Andrew. Presumably there was no problem in going straight from LR3.6 to LR5 once you downloaded the trial version and registered it? Did you come to the conclusion that the...

If you can get Acronis True Image to boot from a USB stick, which should be possible then disconnect the SATA lead to the Optical drive and connect to the new drive. Clone the 500GB to the 3TB. Keep the 500GB - you have a back up of images to date on there.

Broken imported images!! All may not be lost.
Thanks worth remembering. I have only had one problem with broken files it was a faulty 16GB card would work for around 4GB then failed. Card returned and photos not important. I take the attitude looking at what you have taken means loosing opportunities so in the main only inspect when I get home....

Broken binoculars
About 39 years back ... yes 39, I used some SuperGlue - only just around at that time and stuck a 1p coin on some concrete outside my Aunts house. It is still there!

Lightroom and/or back-up ignorance ...
I use Lightroom and I back up the file 'My Pictures' on the C drive to a 2TB hard disk (mapped as drive E). I today clicked on one of the DNG files within E, instructing it to open in Lightroom, which it obediently did. But it was the file in its RAWest state - ie without any Lightroom corrections a...

LR should ask you each week about backing up - mine does. The directory you want to hang onto is the one that you export your post-LR files to - I've kept mine as the default "untitled export". This, the catalog and the RAW files are all contained in a RAID array.

Ah, you may have uncovered poor practice on my part. I only export my post-LR files if I need to make a jpeg for (eg) this website ... and since they are invariably lowish resolution for web use, I tend to ditch them after use. What I think of as the 'real' files remain in 'My Pictures'. The Li...

Lightroom and/or back-up ignorance ...
In theory you should only need the catalogue for LR to function post-catastrophe, so making a backup of that is pretty much a day-1 practice but; 1. I've never put it to the test and 2. I back up everything in the chain, so all I have to restore is the LR shell program then import the catalogue ...

LR including storage and backups was discussed recently, have a read through thread.

Panning focus/blur question
I'm trying to take pan shots at motorsport events, using a slower shutter speed and panning the camera to blur the background. In many cases this works quite nicely: But by far the majority of the time, I get this: Literally the majority of shots I took last weekend are like the abov...

Panning focus/blur question
I do a lot of motorsport photography and I can say that it took me several months to get to grips with the panning technique and basically, it takes a lot of practice to get it right more often than not. Even now I occasionally screw up after 2 years of doing it every other Saturday. I think your...

Panning focus/blur question
It looks to me like shake rather than focus. Not having witnessed your technique I can't rule it out but I suspect its mainly a matter of practice & the high failure rate normally expected with panning. I've been practicing panning for years and still get quite a high proprtion of failures. Check...

Panning focus/blur question
I don't think it has anything to do with gear, just technique. For slow shutter speed panning to work you have to have the target stationary with reference to the camera. Looking at the image, say at the 'T' in 'BRUT', it seems that you have managed to track the car pretty well in the vertical pl...

Panning focus/blur question
I should add that my Sigma lens is an OS version which I have set to mode 2 OS, this mode maintains image stability only in the vertical plane and locks the horizontal plane rigid otherwise the lens keeps trying to stabilize the panning lens. I'd like to see this choice for the Pentax SR system beca...
