i have a new printer, a C---n MG6150, with which I am (generally) pleased.

However, images that look good to me on my computer monitor after PPing in PSE9,( & as posted on Gallery & Your Photos) all print up too dark. I have the monitor calibrated as per the grey scale at the foot of this (& all) PU forum screens.

How do I match them together, it's proving expensive on ink to adjust & then re-print!?

Thanks,

Roger.

Superb set, Alan.

Please smile, all those who think this is the best bird set they've seen on PU....


..........



Thanks for letting us see.


Roger.

Great, varied set Steve!

And thanks for extolling the virtues of this lens.
Take it from one who knows : If finances are tight, this is the lens for YOU!
(Plus the 100 D FA macro!)

Roger.

Hey, come on, Bernard!

This is Wiltshire, you know.
Not Transylvania......

Thanks to all for the encouraging remarks.


Roger.

'fraid not, Doug.
Only the built-in flash on the K7.
Metz 58 (I think) has strobe mode but.... haven't any money!

One day.......

Roger.

I've been following your IR posts, Richard, from your recounting of the conversion of your camera to IR &, I have to say, I'm hooked!
They are beautiful, ethereal,& show the world in an entirely different light(!)
Can this "effect" be achieved with a non-converted camera?
Can a filter be used?
What shutter speeds are achievable?
Can flash be used?
Is high iso necessary (K7 user!)?

Roger.

A different location, from the bridge by the mill.
Surrounded by bats!
Absolutely beautiful, you should've been there!

Same technique as before:

Never mind the snaps, a privilege to see & be so near them!

Roger.

No. 1's very colourful, Charlotte, but aren't you meant to inform the Min. of Ag. & Fish. (or the police!) if you find one of these?!
(Or is it just those primary school posters I'm remembering......?)

Roger.

I've had one of these lenses for some years. I was given one as a memento of 10 years service with the joinery co. I was with in London before moving to Wiltshire in the early nineties.

I've never really tried it with any serious intent since getting my K7. I used to use it on my MX with, I thought at the time, stisfactory results.
Will pop it back on some time & "test" it further.

Very interesting to see these, Steve.
Agree the jet-ski one is the pick otb but I'm sure the others could be lifted with judicious post-processing.....

Please let us see, should you decide so to do.


Roger.

And just to round the evening off...

1. Look out - behind you!
