I have spent quite a lot of time recently commenting on pictures in the Gallery, not necessarily on their photo merit but being honest on how I responded to the image but then had very little comeback from the poster. This has discouraged me to the point that I have not posted or commented on any pictures in the last few days, coming to the conclusion that the Gallery is not there for comment. Am I right??

My 86 year old mentor at my camera club has taught me to shoot in RAW. Use CS3 to reveal my failings..and then correct them in the Raw converter then save them to JPG. and delete the Raw file to save space on the Hard drive. I am not sure I understand what I am doing in the Raw converter but the results regularly arein the top entries in our monthly comp...Beginners luck, I suspect.

George, As a newbe I shoot in RAW DNG because it helps me rescue an under or over exposed shot, which is often, but I find the process somewhat confusing in CS3. You mention Silkypix. Knowing you intent for perfection, this must be a good programme. Can you enlighten me on the merits of this programme against CS3, please.

Thanks again, John. Your short lesson has cleared much of my confusion...More to the point....my mental picture of you and Sue chasing damselflies is precious. Would love to be around to take a pic. The Gallery would love it.

John..I am now totally confused. When taking macro using manual focus would you advise Multi segment..centre weighted or spot metering and how does the Focusing Area settings affect this on the K10? I am shooting small insects not much bigger that a thumb nail but the pic is spoilt because the immediate area around the insect is out of focus. (Apologies for being a problem person)

Thanks John. I do not subscribe being a newbe and catching up. How are these lens regarded? Are they worth using?
