Sanning Slides - Konica Minolta Dimage Scan Dual IV
Input res should really be the same as output res for archiving. You don't want any resizing/sampling going on ;) I batched scanned all my slides with Vuescan in AdobeRGB 8-bit JPG (95% quality). For slides Vuescan has an "image" mode that copies pretty much what you see, without applyi...

Sanning Slides - Konica Minolta Dimage Scan Dual IV
Thank you very much for all your helpful information, it has helped tremendously. I have settled on using 2400 input res., 300 output res., sRGB, 8 bit, no multi-scan, jpg output, and I'm happy with the results, not least of which is the now much faster scanning speed. I'll have these done in nex...

White Balance

Pentax thinking on K10D
I wonder if Pentax have been playing a "long game" here. By choosing not to produce a flagship camera with first or second generation hardware they are gaining a lot of experience and feedback that can be rolled into the K1D if and when it arrives - which may also depend upon Pentax makin...

Crawling out of bed at some unearthly hour ? Not in Cumbria, my friends, Sunrise is currently running at 8.33am.! aha but you want to be up nice and early to get the pre-dawn light :) (Mind you I was up early anyway - I'd run my folks to the airport at Half Three - so was on the way back when ...

first 16-45 tryout
Ain't nothin' wrong with that shot! Do you remember your F, mm and ISO numbers? Mac from Montreal 1/250s f/8.0 at 16.0mm iso200 Shot was hand-held. Converted from RAW with silkypix (something else I have yet to master completely, great software but not the easiest to use). I didn't do any ad...

Night photography
Hi, it's a great, well composed shot.. but as critique only, did you use a tripod? The Lady and Gent watching make the photo, but seem to be a bit hazy around the edges. If you could get a similar shot, but focus on the audience components as a crisp and clear aspect of the shot it would work r...

eBay WARNING, Sandisk Extreme III 2GB SD Card
Brian, It's a tricky situation - leave negative feedback (like a fair few others have) and you're sure to get some back, and when you've got 100% positive, that's not what you want. However, the sale of counterfeit goods isn't allowed on ebay ( ) so you could let ebay know what you received, w...

eBay WARNING, Sandisk Extreme III 2GB SD Card
Well the seller has made a right pigs ear of it. In his haste to try a claw back his final value fees he's started an unpainditem distput instead of Mutual agreement indication, so noe ebay and paypal know I received a fake card.

eBay WARNING, Sandisk Extreme III 2GB SD Card
The main reason the seller tries for an unpaid strike is not to get the final value fee back. (He can get that on a refund). The purpose is to avoid a neg. If you haven't paid for an item, you can't leave feedback although the seller can still leave you one. Perhaps another reason he hasn't got that...

K10D shoots The Moon
Hi all, thanks for the nice words, think I just got lucky but I will say the SMC-A 400 is a beautiful lens to use, the focus action is so smooth and you get a nice bright viewfinder image....it all helps I suppose.

Hmmm! This sounds like a shop full of assistants who are all Canon users, all frightened their precious Canons are going to be upstaged. The only other possible explanation is they dont have a clue what they are talking about and if thats the case I wouldnt trust them to sell a Kodak Instamati...
