Harvest!
[quote:f67231f8ef="Tyr"]My OH brought a sunflower seed back from a field in France. The seedling got eaten by slugs :( It has been so wet that we had a plague of slugs. They were so hard to control and they seem to be coming back. Time for some more nematodes. Indeed, I wd need any army of hungry he...

Harvest!
well just to offend and upset everyone... whilst working for an ITV company I sent an email containing the word 'shit'. The e-system filtered it, sent it back and e-rapped my knuckles. I changed the word by adding an 'e' (Scottish readers will get this) to the end and my little (e)-pistle went o...

Some more aircraft
Hey Chris. Pic no.1: Great shot. Nice and clear/sharp. The only thing that oculd have made it better is some clouds giving character to the sky. But that is beyond our control. Aside from the mandatory sharpening, I don't think anything needed to be done as far as PP. "The Sorcerer"... ...

Tyr's Insane Macro Day.
So I reverse mounted my A 28mm f2.8 on my DA 50-200mm... Focusing rind becomes magnification control and focusing ring. Pictures coming as soon as they come off the card. The magnification is crazy and the time it takes to get anything in focus is mad. Harsh sunlight only I'm afraid, the...

Tyr's Insane Macro Day.
I didn't know that, I've been using 2s timer all along, otherwise the camera shakes like mad. It's very easy to check. Just press the INFO button when the camera's in Capture mode (ie not Playback mode). The 'hand' icon is greyed out and has a line through it when it's set to the 2s timer, but not...

Tyr's Insane Macro Day.
After that I discovered that my dioptre adjustment bar had been moved, which explains why it was out of focus. I corrected it for the shots in my last post.

Is it a button of some description :?: Clutching at straws though :? If you have seen 'Blackadder: Back & Forth' then it was invented by Shakespeare.

Tyr's Insane Macro Day.
You could get a job with Sigma any day. They use sticky tape in their lenses, too. Yes, but on the inside as well, surely? (Welcome back !)

Shoot raw and auto convert or stick with Hi-Res JPG

Shoot raw and auto convert or stick with Hi-Res JPG
Hi Jim, shoot RAW. The two most crucial adjustments that you will get a lot more leeway on are white balance and exposure. Even if you only use those two (if necessary of course) before converting to jpeg, you'll save plenty of shots that you may have thrown away. All the apps listed will give...

one more vote for Raw if you auto convert your raws you get back to what you would have had if you'd shot JPEG in the first place If you take some time to get your head around Raw processing you get more options. you can't loose.

How many keepers do you get, on average?
I think with time you tend to shoot less images, and keep more. Way back when, I shot as much as I could afford. These days I can take as many as I want but shoot way less. Gerri is like "Oh look a deer!" snap, snap, snap.... I'm like "so what, the light sucks" or "s...

How many keepers do you get, on average?
When I go back to film I take a lot fewer shots and it'll also tend to be a theme in mind. Last time I took the Z1p (out I got 6 decent (for me!) shots from one 24 exposure roll of B&W which I was quite pleased with: Unfortunately it's quite a palaver getting the shots from the film and ont...
