It just sounded rather alarming - I find helmimg a yacht and taking photographs to be sufficiently testing, but that is mainly because if there is anything worth photographing, it means that you are either in close proximity of the shoreline or other boats

Are you doing the flying as well as the photographing?
I hope not

Hi All,
You can probably tell from the title that I am new to all of this. I have recently purchased a K10D and am thinking of doing more than just loading the images onto the computer.
I understand that there are various programmes out there but was just wondering about the two. Do they do the same thing? Is one preferable to the other or do you need both?

Thanks.
Welcome to the forum.

I started using Elements last year and think that it is a good programme.

We have the full blown Photoshop CS3 at work, but Elements seems to do everything that most people would want and is good value.

I cannot comment on Lightroom but I am sure that others will shortly.

I bet it's made of exactly the same stuff.

Maybe I have stickier nose grease than you!
I wish you would all come to a defintive conclusion on this topic so that I know what to buy

I'm currently looking for a macro lens for my K10D. Top candidates are the Pentax 100mm/F2.8 lens and the Sigma 105mm/F2.8 lens.

I came across the following (very negative) review of the Pentax lens - any comments?

Any outfit that reviews such a wide range of products is not worth taking any notice of IMHO.

I am sure that John R. or George L. or Clarky (to name a few) will be able to advise you, once they see this thread.

Many thanks for doing that.

I now see the effect that can be achieved.

I guess one of the tricks is knowing when to stop tweaking

I don't know anything about HDR but I am just curious to know what the single, standard exposure image looks like for comparison.

So if we all look odd, how will they know who to report?

I think that it would probably be one of those insect characters with multiple limbs, since they can probably hold several cameras at once, pointing in different directions and still have some spare legs to stand on
