Storage & Back-up
Stress. Decision paralysis. What do I do to make sure my beloved photos are safe from mishap and calamity?? Like everyone else, I hold multiple copies on internal and external drives with DVD backups too. Some are held in cyberspace but the point I'm going to make is - no matter how careful we are...

Storage & Back-up
Copying the picture folder from my home PC to my office laptop, then copying both machines to external drives should provide enough security. Especially since the external drives are always kept at two different locations. The external drives are used for backup only, hence they have a very low ...

Storage & Back-up
I save mine firstly to the internal drive on my pooter, then to an external drive, then to CD/DVD Then, and I bet no-one else does this, maybe because I am slightly crazy, I make another copy of the CD/DVD and send or hand it to my mother and father inlaw. Sounds mad but there are reasons. 1....

Storage & Back-up
Does anyone else share the same insanity/paranoia as me :P I would do if I took such important pictures - then an off site backup would be important. As well as the fire risk, external hard drives are popular with burglars - a popular item to easily sell down the pub.

Storage & Back-up
I am more paranoid about the site record photos (dull pictures of mud) than my carefully crafted "nice" photos. The former I have been paid to produce (in a round about way), the latter only I would cry... :cry:

Inkjet photo paper recommendations?
I suppose the answer should be, how long do you want your prints to last? other brand papers may not have the longevity of genuine Epson papers if used with genuine inks. Having said that, I always had a preferance for Epson Premium Photo Glossy despite using brand X ink:D, I tried cheaper papers w...

EPSON STYLUS PHOTO 1290
I have an Epson 1290S A3 Printer which I have used for a number of years. It produces really good quality A3 prints. Even monochrome prints using just the black are of good quality. I have just replaced this printer with an Epson 3800, so that I can get a full range of monchrome tones with the grey...

Zenit opinions
I used to be in the photographic retail trade and sold a lot of Russian equipment in the 60's to 80's. The 55mm Helios was very good lens but watch out as the early lenses had a 39mm thread for the Zenith 3M (my first SLR) a simple adaptor was available to convert the lens for 42mm. I had the 85mm F...

Cannot find Jpeg on my CS3
If you are going from lightroom to CS3, why not go back to lightroom when you have finished the edits in CS3 and use the lightroom export function? Much better workflow that way and keeps your lightroom library up to date. Cheers, Kris.

Tilt & Shift
Mine cost me about £300 inc P & P couple of years back. ACE had one it's Bath shop window at £400 for 3 or 4 months not long afterwards, which made me feel I'd not over bid. :) I've not seen one for a long time either, even so pitching your price at £649 does look a bit optimistic. Mind you, the...

Tilt & Shift
As for overpriced lenses, how about this ? Annoying that she refused to change the inaccurate description (it isn't an M-series lens but a K series) claiming the 'M' just means it is manual focus. I got my example a few weeks back for 66 quid :!:

TV mode in K10
don't know what I did or if I did anything. I did go into the green button setting in the Custom mode and altered the setting to Programme Line and after a few tries it has all come back to how it was. Guess I will avoid that green button like the plague. Thanks for your interest, Matt. Have yo...
