Thank you! I'm going to give that a try this evening.

This is what I do:

Bring pictures into bridge from memory card.

Open raw in Camera Raw and do adjustment sliders.

When completed, save as PSD, and open in CS3.

Do basic adjustments, then Tone and color (brightness/contrast, levels, color balance, saturation as adjustment layers).

Then I do image cleanup in another layer.

next duplicate background layer and do shadow/highlights

Next curves in adjustment layer

I save the image with the layers in case I want to work on it some more.

Then, I flatten, resize, sharpen, and save as a TIFF file.

I want some to post on the web, so I use the "save for the web" option. It gets saved as a smaller jpeg.

When I was using PS 6, I was not using the save for the web option, and if I posted on the web, my EXIF data would come along with it.

I was going to try to resize without using the option, but can't find a way to do so.

I was actually losing the data after to made smaller jpeg images for the web. Someone just suggested to me that it was because I used the "save for the web" tool on CS3 and that stripped it of the data. If that is what is happening, the problem is that I don't know another way to save them for the web. If I take my tiff images and try to resize them to the correct pixel size without that function, and the go to the drop down, I am not even seeing a choice for jpeg.

How else would I resize them?

I just started using bridge and CS3. Since I started using this, it seems that my EXIF data gets lost. I can see it in bridge, but it does not seem to follow the image past that. Does anyone using CS3 have this problem?

That did it! Thanks!!!

I have the proper city selected, and the date and time filled in correctly, but it tells me it is PM when it is AM, and AM when it is PM. The cursor will not move to the AM/PM to select and change it. Does anyone know how to make this change?

Thanks! I will not have time to do this before I leave for the concert, so I guess I am changing ISO in FN for tonight...

Thank you for the suggestions. I will see how it goes. I don't know what Firmware is in it, because it just came out of the box. I don't know if I need to somehow update this.

I am not certain if they allow flash, or if I would even be close enough to try it, but I will bring the flash along just in case I might be able to give that a try too.

I guess if I press the raw button on the side of the camera, it will take both jpeg and raw at the same time...


Opps- I can't dial in the ISO, so I guess the firmware is not updated.

How do I get the updated firmware into the camera?

I have only had the K10D for a few days, and only took my first picture last night. I have been reading through the manual and trying to understand the new settings that have not been on my previous cameras.

I am going to my sons first concert at his university tomorrow night. It will be dark with a lit stage. I am wondering what the best setting would be in this situation. The sensitivity setting? A manual setting?

I just received my K10D. I see that there is only an option of the rechargeable battery, so I guess I will need to order an extra. The manual says it should last for about 500 pictures. I had given up on rechargeable batteries a while ago, since I never seemed to be able to determine when I needed to have the extras charged and waiting.

This might seem silly, but at what point do you have the spare fully charged? Do you keep track of the amount of pictures you take, and charge it when you have about 400? How long will the charge last on a battery that is fully charged but only on stand by, and not being used?

With my other cameras, I always used CR-V3's and would have an unopened package waiting in my camera bag....
