Photo scanners
Your main focus should be to the resolution each scanner offers. If, for example, a particular machine scans at 1024 x 768 d.p.i. and another machine scans at perhaps 4000 x 3000 d.p.i. then the latter machine should (in theory anyway) offer better quality from the scans. Obviously, the higher the d...

New printer needed
OK - Printer is now here and more or less set up. Printing wirelessly is easy from across the room - definitely the lazy way to do it. I've even managed to do back to back printing without a problem - tick a box and watch it do it itself - very nice. Copying - superb. Insertion of the 4 ink...

Calibrate a Laptop screen?

I do have a LG ips but due to the small space i live in laptop/monitor live on fold down tables which i have to put away after use,so a lot of the time i dont use the LG. I also made the mistake of connecting the LG before loading the softwa...

Epson reset software
I only just read this thread. I have an Epson Printer Reset disk, which I used to reset an Epson Stylus Photo 810 a couple of years ago. If you want to try it, pm me your address and I'll post it to you. No charge, just post it back when you're done.

My first K-r effort ...
It certainly looks like the moon and the focus looks okay, although I also think it is a little too dark. You could rectify this with some post processing... and that would probably yield a decent shot I reckon:) The moon is a strange thing to photograph because whilst it is night-time the moon is ...

My first K-r effort ...
Please forgive me all this '***ing' about. this is my first effort at doing this. The picture above is as in my gallery. It was taken a little before dawn, this morning. It is my first deliberate attempt to take a proper photograph using my new K-r. All I have done to it is to crop it and satu...

Jessops bad attitude
Always worth asking sales people, right at the start, a technical question to which you already know the answer, just to see if they either know the answer, or will admit that they don't know the answer or will just lie to you, pretending that they know the answer :( My favourite technique. Helps...

Jessops bad attitude
Back in the late Seventies (yes I'm an old git!) we used to take trade exams to prove our worth in the retail photographic industry, this included producing a sealed film photo shoot to be marked,a written paper on photographic theory and a interview examination down in London on current technology...

First pictures with my first dslr camera = k-,,,,,,,need help!
The nearer a subject is to the camera, the more critical focusing. The second shot illustrates this perfectly. The camera has achived excellent focus on most of the ivy leaves; leaves nearer the camera are rendered out of focus, as are trees in the background. The wider the aperture: the shallowe...

Check out Cambridge in colour: http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/depth-of-field.htm They have some good explanations on some technical aspects of photography. A short-course, if its a good one, would help you, but its really not needed. If you have time and patience you can learn alot ...

You'll find from time to time that Forum members get together for a day out somewhere. Why not go along to one of these? Never done so myself, to be honest, but I'm sure you'll get a warm welcome, lots of practical help and immediate feed-back on your photographs.

Something like this may help explain the link between aperture and DOF (depth of field):- http://dryreading.com/camera/index.html Edit: Click aperture priority then move the bottom aperture slider left/right to see difference on the depth of (focus) field.

First pictures with my first dslr camera = k-,,,,,,,need help!
I only delete files which are badly out of focus or taken by mistake (the number of shots I take of my right foot is frightening)! I find that you can come back to a shot, sometimes years later and realise that it has something you didn't see the first time around. Which is why I still have 2,...

The OP wanted to blur out the background, so actually the wide aperture and small depth of field may have been appropriate in this case. The problem in 1 & 2 seems to be that the point of focus is not quite where the OP intended - focussing using the centre spot on the suject, then moving the ca...

Glad it's not just me that has a spam problem!
I'm just back in and it's all been done. When there are spam messages, it's best just to leave it to us to tidy it up. It won't be long before one of us picks it up and it saves multiple reports and messages. Of course if it doesn't get picked up, then do please let us know. It's also very helpfu...
