[quote:3496ace15f="thoughton"][quote:3496ace15f="ripstar74"]Just to TRY and get the thread back on track, did anyone look at the Lenovo W700? The more i see about it the better it gets. Not only does it have a graphics tablet built in AND a retractable second screen, it ALSO has a built screen calib...

I would like your opinion Please
[quote:3496ace15f="womble"]For God's sake no-one mention the ipad. Oh fiddle, I just did. If it can be used to store photos then it might be handy, does it have support for PEF or DNG? The screen is large enough to make a decent guess if the photo is good or not. More importantly does the iPad hav...

Flickr & award/invite graphics, sigh
Yeah, he's well weird. He ticks a lot of "uh-oh" boxes. That American lady lawyer even mailed me back, nothing to do with her either. Thank you ever so much for the kind words, one tries :) About the copyright though, I don't really mind anyone using my stuff as long as they at least give me ...

Something I don't understand about Cokin filters
Do you've any filters Technoidiot? Hi Stefan! This is completely off-topic, but using "you've" as a contraction for "you have" is very tricky. It's hard to define when it is okay and when it isn't (but I know it when I see it :D). I notice you use the phrase all the time, and often it is wrong way (...

Light cube
I recently bought one of these photo tents via ebay and it does seem to work quite well. We use it for photographing things for ebay. It came with red, blue, black & white back-clothes and a front closure with a slit in it. The back-clothes are a bit thin and because they are folded are creased. ...

Light cube
Can you give us a reference/link to the one that you bought please This is the one that I bought . The only down-side was that the back-clothes are made of the same material as the tent so are a bit thin and look a little shiny although this has not caused any problems. Glyn

Shooting - Whats your style
As an expedition/short break/city visit record I take quite a few, usually though I seem to find a subject(s) I like and take several of it(them). When it comes to PP I'm lazy so I prefer to have 3 or 4 good shots rather than one perfect one. Now I'm back on film as well as digital it's making...

Shooting - Whats your style
I don't take shots by accident or just come across them - I'm far too rubbish for that. I have to plan what I do. I take specific ideas/locations, visit them once before, take a few testshots from various angles and with various lenses, look at them at home and then go back when I've worked out w...

Shooting - Whats your style
When I'm setting off on a shoot I have a broad idea of what I want but when I get there I work instinctly and try to react to situations as they arise. It means I sometimes come back with pictures quite different from those I visualised at the start of the day. I don't erase photos from the camera...

new computer for photoshop
terje-1 wrote It is also a fact that I have 4 GByte RAM in my machine running Windows 7, and after starting Photoshop Elements 8 Organizer + loading a 7 MByte image file into the Editor, I have still nearly 2 GByte of free memory available. Well, none of my main machines have that much RAM. In fac...

new computer for photoshop
The advice given about 32 bit Windows is still not completely accurate. It is not true that 32 bit XP is limited to 3GB RAM. 32 bit operating systems can only physically address a total maximum of 4GB of memory. That's total memory, so includes the system RAM you have put on the mother board, gra...

Sharpening technique for photoshop CS2+
USM is too obvious for me in many cases, I prefer something else.... - Take the original - duplicate twice. - on one, edge-detect and then convert to black and white. - using the color levels, remove the grey (shift the black point up and the white point down) until you've got what could be a ...

Sharpening technique for photoshop CS2+
Most sharpening routines are based around USM in some form or other, usually masked as Bret has explained. The important thing about sharpening for me is that it ought to be done in several phases, at different stages of the process. That's why I use Photokit Sharpener, which is built on this very c...

A new forum area
But you are probably better of using Forum > Forum Search from the menu - more options. Also note that the 'Search for this phrase' option, which as has been pointed out, really does need to be used, is a match to the entire phrase. Thus the order of the search text is paramount - eg. "cokin fil...

Photography Technique FAQ
I've been working quite a bit at trying to develop my photography skills. From what I gather there are two major elements to good photography. The first are the technical elements, and they are the easiest to develop. Content, on the other hand, is much more difficult and won't be the focus of th...
