Colour balance problem
I think I have done something daft (no surprise there) but, when I am using Aperture ('modern' imac) and send a file to be edited in Photoshop, the colour balance changes drastically. Both pictures, side by side, are disturbingly different. When the file is saved, it goes back to the original colour...

Pentax Photo Gallery
I've just come back from holiday so forgive me if this has already been commmented on. I looked at the Pentax (a Ricoh company) Photo Gallery today, obviously incomplete but seems incredibly clunky and not very intuitive. I really don't think it is as good as the previous incarnation.

Pentax Photo Gallery
They are obviously messing around with the database and tweaking here and there (and surely there's a lot to do ... and a need to do it properly - otherwise it will be wide open for misuse). So why not just sit back and wait till it has stabilized? Maybe in the long run it will change but it is ...

Pentax Photo Gallery
I wrote to inform them that I have been presented with the same photos in voting on mutliple occasions. They wrote back thanking me for the feedback and confirming they had now fixed this bug. I voted again and found quite a few photos I had voted on a couple of days ago.

Well it seems that we're back to waiting for ever to get images accepted/rejected. 9 days since my last uploads and still waiting, another 2 images are still waiting after 3weeks!:wink:

looking for a macro solution
Hi, I'm looking for a macro 'solution' again. Budget- not sure, cheaper is better but maybe £100 max I cancelled the macro lens I bought the next day as I got a good deal on a sports lens instead. So with Xmas not too far away I'm on the lookout for a macro 'solution' again. I have a * Si...

looking for a macro solution
As Peter says, nothing compares to a true macro lens but if you are on a tight budget then thats not always possible. 1. Extension tubes .. you need the ones with A contacts, very hard to find and expensive. You will be looking at £80/90 for a used set. 2. Reversing ring. You need a lens with ...

might interest you. It's f4, manual focus, but should produce good results especially if you use additional flash lighting.

Spam
Getting back to spam :D the other forum I mentioned has well over 100,000 members and a large group of moderators to share the load. My initial posts were moderated very quickly. I do not consider the system harsh but sensible. You would not want people on this forum endelessly asking what ...

Actually, no. It looks better, which is why people do it. See how much better this one looks. G To me the first actually looks better. In a large block of text it can make it easier to read to increase sentance spacing, but a double space is IMO excessive. I think some fonts do this by def...

image size
However, if i were to print out a 16mp image at lets say a 100cm x70cm, my image resolution would end up resulting in 125ppi. After doing what is necessary in sharping and smoothing over as suggested, how bad would an image of this size really turn out? If you leave the 'resample image' box checked,...

File size in the new Pentax Photogallery
Hi - this morning, I realized, that the new Pentax Photogallery is back online (I must have missed the announcement in the PU Newsletter)..... They changed the minimum file size from at least 600 pixel height to at least 00 pixel height. Proposal - can the same size be offered here in the gallery....

File size in the new Pentax Photogallery
The limit in the forum is 800 pixels so that the forum isn't distorted - any larger would have to be resized by the forum software so that's not the best way to go. In the Gallery the size can be bigger and I usually use 1000 pixels as this is the size I use for ePHOTOzine. The more places you...

PayPal
A bit off topic, but does anyone know how to get back a credit from ebay. I paid the appropriate fee for the advertising and consequent sale commision. The buyer didn't cough up so the sale was eventually nullified. Now every month I get an email advising me I'm in credit. Bernard

digital vs film for sharpness
I suspect one thing which may have an impact on perceived sharpness is the fact that it's much easier to crop images to a ridiculous degree now. Rather than being limited by the height your enlarger head can go up to you can simply keep pressing the button. Lenses which were perfectly adequate in th...

Wedding 'tog's nightmare
My wife and I try and work as a team wherever possible. I back up to the laptop throughout the day but always keep the SD cards on me and do not erase them until after I have multiple backups on; laptop, desktop and external HDD. Later, finished JPEGs are uploaded to a secure online storage provider...

Hitting a brick wall
Charlotte, I've admired several of your shots in the Gallery: you clearly have talent. John's suggestion of limiting yourself to one lens, preferably a prime lens is a good one. This need not be expensive if you're prepared to use old manual-focus K-mount lenses which are still relatively inexpen...
