Exposure meters
Yes the cameras meter is usually better, provided that the camera actually has one in the first place! ........My Hassleblad did'nt have one,....my MPP Mk7 does'nt have one,...my Rollieflexes DO have them but they are only small selenium cells on the camera top and NOT as useful, or as convenient...

Exposure meters
Weston Invercones are highly sought after in the Vintage market, basically because they become mislaid. Also it seems because viewfinder is throwing them away! :shock: Weston meters with Invercone will sell just so people can have the Invercone. Now we have a new and previously unthought of appli...

What does eveyone do with their photos?
My photos are rubbish to be honest, so they mostly stay on the hard drive or perhaps get moved to the digi photo frame if the boss (wife) gives them the green light. Ah but in a few years time you'll look back at them and think..... ......I wish I was still that good :cry: :P Seriously thoug...

Storage & Back-up
How do you store your pictures? I have been thinking of an external HDD. Then I start to wonder what happens if that goes belly-up? Do I burn a dvd? Which dvd lasts longest? How long will it last? Cue Jimmy Cliff ;-) Nick

All my shots are on the computer internal hard drive. This is constantly backed up onto an external hard drive. Shots I particularly like are then uploaded to Flickr. Shots I realy realy like are then uploaded to the gallery here. Guess I am pretty well covered.:D Davex.

I back up a copy of all, Software Updates, Photos, and Lightroom photos to a 250GB external hard drive. Then monthly from that drive, I back up to a External 750GB hard drive.:wink::D edit:( Added word.

A large hard drive in my computer holds all my pictures, and I have it backed up twice to two large external hard drives. These are quite affordable these days. I used to backup to DVD, but as well as concerns about longetivity, they've become too inconvenient to use as image files have become la...

I've a blu-ray burner here, still waiting till the prices of the discs comes down a bit further :( A external harddisk is the best option I believe the prices arent that high and if stored probable last a life time. There are also some sites where you can store your photos online.

Hard drives are so cheap that we just put 4x 1TB drives into the Mac. 1. System drive 2. My Drive 3. Fiona's Drive 4. Time machine I copy my photos onto 'my' drive, then import them into Aperture, which stores them in it's own library on the System Drive. Time machine automatically backs ev...

Storage & Back-up
But with backing up everything at one place it isn't that great way of a back up. What if you have a fire at home or I don't know maybe ligthing striking your PC, an EMP experiment goes wrong near your place, you still will lose everything. If you once a month use a external drive and store the ...

As well as external hard drives I also use an online backup which is quite inexpensive and seems to do the job:

Got a RAID0 (striped) Firewire800 drive for fast access (sooo fast) for day to day working files and a RAID1 (mirrored) USB2 box for backups. Peridoidically I send to a NAS box over gigabit, but the drives are so slow in that box you'd think you were using dial-up modems to send and receive files. ...

I use NAS with mirror RAID on it, keep backup on a PC harddrive and copy the backup onto an external drive (WD) from time to time.

Stored on HDD "C", and backed up onto HDD "F", which is mounted into an ICY Box removable caddy. I work on the theory that both HDD's won't fail at the same time?:lol: Peter

I find all this discussion about hardware quite interesting. Professional archiving institutions are less worried about that than (a) the format of the files and (b) finding them (i.e. metadata). PEFs are camera specific, DNG is yet to become a recognised archive format although Adobe would like i...

To follow on from Chris, I tend to archive in both RAW and JPEG in a named, dated folder. That way I can tell where and when the shots were taken. For clarity I also record in a word doc in the same folder the specific time/dates relevant to the group. This all gets saved on Internal/extern...
