'RAW + JPG' !?
The make it sound more stupid, in the RAW there is a JPG preview which there are ways to separate. The JPG preview is created in the same way as a separate JPG. One reason to shoot both if you don't plan to do PP on your photos, only on the ones that didn't end up so good. the in-camera jpg is f...

'RAW + JPG' !?
the in-camera jpg is for display on the back, correct ?? I don't follow the last part about PP, whatever that is ? Yes it shows the JPG preview not the actual RAW file on the back. PP = Post Processing If you are happy with JPG and don't want to spend a lot of time behind the computer but w...

'RAW + JPG' !?
My JPGs are 2MB and the PEFs are 10MB, so less of a difference, but even so I wouldn't want to use my phone anyway ! If you're working away and have to report in with proof shots, and take the raws back to base later, then I take your point :) reporter by any chance ?? ;-)

'RAW + JPG' !?
I shoot RAW + JPEG (lowest size and quality) so that I can view the images on the camera. Back home I can then quickly browse through all the images on the laptop and decide which ones are worth processing properly from the RAW file.

'RAW + JPG' !?
I always shoot RAW+JPG on highest resolution for the simple reason that I might not be happy with the white balance etc and feel the need to change that and process another jpg in-camera. For the most part I flick through the LCD screen and delete the RAW files and keep the JPG's I want. I keep any ...

Help with stacking
Wanted to put the technique to the test but I lost the article about it :oops: There are three kind of stacking so far as I know. - Focus - averaging - exposure Focus is not the one I want. Averaging is easy and not a problem. Exposure is the one I'm lost with at the moment, the idea is t...

Help with stacking
Hi Stefan, I had a program for focus stacking mainly for closeup, you could take 5-10 photos at different focus depths and when combined the whole object was in focus from back to front, hope that helps. Jack.

Which image editing program works the best
I did use Corel Paint Shop Pro X2, and was very happy with it (you get a lot for your money - mine only cost about £20 from Amazon) until it stopped working on both the laptops I have access to. Have yet to work out what happened, but I have an inkling it had something to do with my introduction of ...

Tamron SP F K fit 2 X tele converter
Yes I have. A while back I did some brick wall tests on about half a dozen cheap (£10-20) teleconverters and this one, along with the Vivitar/Kenko 2x macro TC, was the sharpest. On the other hand the Vivitar/Kenko has a really good macro facility (it's got a a zooming 'extension tube' segment) and ...

Tamron SP F K fit 2 X tele converter
Tim, If the tele-converter is not fully automatic then I would need a split image focus screen (old tired eyes), and a bit more experience with exposure and shutter settings. I will look into the split screen option as looking at some of my old shots some are shaky to say the least. Regards Co...

Tamron SP F K fit 2 X tele converter
From your comment about focus screens I'm guessing you are referring to autofocus? I'm no expert at this but I'm pretty sure 'automatic' in lenses, TCs and extension tubes refers to automatic aperture, not autofocus. This teleconverter definitely doesn't have autofocus! There aren't very many that d...

Good news / bad news
Cheers guys Back from a weekend away now and the Sigma 17-70 was used extensively (around Canterbury). Really noticed the difference in sharpness to the kit lens and also the overall performance inside the cathedral which has a lot of dim and variable lighting. In response to Womble's comment...

MetaData in Elements
Colin, just a further thought, when I said above xmp files were generagted some time back, it would have been on another PC with XP operating sys. I'm now operating with Vista, just wonder if anything to do with different op sys. Eddie
