[photography_beginners] Editing Software for Portraits

2007-09-01T18:09:00.004-07:00

Hi Everyone: I have signed up for a portrait class and the instructor prefers we work with Photo Shop Element 3. Erica had posted that she hadn't spent a "penny on photo manipulation software." So I would like to know if that is a "free" download that has the same or close to the same features for portraits as Elements 3. Thanks for the input, Vicki __._,_.___ Messages in this topic (1) Reply (via web post) | Start a new topic Messages | Files | Photos | Database | Members Change settings via the Web (Yahoo!

Re: [Digital BW] Innova Fiba Print roller marks

2007-09-01T18:09:00.002-07:00

Thanks, Steve. I did try the platten gap adjustment, bumped it up to 10, and it helped a bit, but maybe not enough to resolve it. I wasn't sure (still not) whether the platten gap adjustment actually adjusts the rollers or the print head. I thought it was the print head. I will work on it, as it's a beautiful paper, I also like the Silver Rag, but the surface of the Innova for me is better. If I can it to work. If not, then I'll switch to the Crane. Problem is I bought rolls of the Innova already, lots of paper to go through. I did frame a print (Amalfi Coast) for someone that turned out fine, so the glass helps, but I still hope to eliminate it if possible. I'll try some more things and see if I can post a solution soon. --- In DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com, "stephengledhill" <stephengledhill@...> wrote: > > Hi Mike, > Lovely paper, particularly the 'Warmtone'.

Re: [digital-photography] Re: Getting a new Lens

2007-09-01T18:09:00.001-07:00

bianca having stated specifically your interest, i don't see that you need to go to a specialty lense. the range in which you're using the macro is sufficient, and depending on the area in which to shoot portraiture, unless you have a studio where you have absolute control over the photo session, the variety in the zoom to cover any possible situation. as a starter, the kit lense that you have will do what you need to do...that's not to say that as you progress you may want to consider not so much the zoom range, but then speicalizing in a specific QUALITY of the lenses to each interest. good luck two k Bianca Valero <biancadv1@hotmail.com> wrote: ALL THE INFORMATION IS GREAT THANK YOU TO EVERY BODY.

RE: [MyOlympus] Olympus E-500 External Flash Unit

2007-09-01T18:09:00.000-07:00

Chris, Many thanks, I've seen the price of the FL-50 and over here in the UK it's even higher, as I said as a beginner I really don't want to be spending that kind of cash first time. I shall take a look at the Vivitar, It will probably help me learn more than having a fully automatic unit. Thanks again, Phil.

The FL-50 is the best flash Olympus makes. That being said, with the dropping prices of the E-500 systems, you can easily spend more on a FL-50 than you would a second E-500 body. I felt I already gave Olympus enough of my money with a E-500 two-lens kit and the 18-180mm lens, so I opted for a Vivitar 285HV (actually two of them) for US$50 each, and haven't regretted that decision at all. Although they are not TTL, they are fairly automatic with a rather accurate sensor on them, so guesstimation works rather well. It all depends on how much you want to spend. -- Chris [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] __._,_.___ Messages in this topic (0) Reply (via web post) | Start a new topic Messages | Files | Photos | Links | Database | Polls Group's site: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MyOlympus/ Change settings via the Web (Yahoo!

[Digital BW] trouble with dark prints on a 3800

2007-09-01T18:08:00.001-07:00

Hi All, My b/w and color prints are all about 3/4 stop to dark when printed. Since I'm new to printing, is this a situation I'd make a custom curve to apply before printing? Or could I decrease my monitor's brightness. It is calabrated and I could simply set a new luminance target that's lower than my current 115. What do you think?

Re: [digital-photography] Getting right with Image Usage

Not quite right: You can sell recognizable images just so long as they are not made to look like they are advertising something. You could not place someone in a Cola Ad for example, but you can sell shots of anyone you want at an Art Show. This has been litigated several times.

RE: [Digital BW] Re: R1800 "pure carbon" approach?

2007-08-01T18:09:00.006-07:00

Hi Chris,>I'm up to speed now on the R1800 approach thanks to Paul and others.>However, I found out I can get an r2400 for $425 after rebate.That's an excellent price if it's new. The refurbished R1800s are about$350 from Epson and $330 on E-Bay (Epson-refurb).As you say, you're essentially up to speed on the differences. They areboth very good printers. It's probably a subjective decision at this point.By the way, I'm experimenting with the R260. Nothing is ready to go yet,but in general, all the approaches I've used with it fail to meet thequality of the R1800 with respect to 100% Eboni printing. I think one does,indeed, get a better printer when the higher prices are paid. On the otherhand, a straight Eboni BO with a driver that can do it looks like it'll be agood entry level bargain for those who do want the most archival B&W at thelowest price. The 260 I have does print a single jet smoother than the1800, but the reduced microbanding may simply be a result of increasedroughness, which is not a good trade for those who want the smoothestmulti-channel carbon printing.Paulwww.PaulRoark.comPlease visit the Group Homepage to check the Files, and other resources as they are often being updated.http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrintIf you wish to receive no emails or just a daily digest, or you wish to unsubscribe, please edit your Membership preferences by visiting this same page.Please follow these basic guidelines:- As threads develop, trim off excess portions of earlier messages to keep them short.- Good manners are required at all time.

After doing a bit moreresearch here, I've learned that you've had bad experiences buyingrefurbed Epson printers.

In fact, I'm prettyhappy with the results from my 220 and the main reason driving thisnew purchase is the desire for better color prints. Although I don't currently make many prints bigger than 8x10, I thinkit may be worth the extra $100 to reserve that option. Having saidthat, Epson lists refurbed R800s for $140 on their website (not instock currently). To me that sounds like the ultimate low-costarchival option for someone who wants to print B&W and color on 8.5 x11 matte papers.Thanks,ChrisPlease visit the Group Homepage to check the Files, and other resources as they are often being updated.http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrintIf you wish to receive no emails or just a daily digest, or you wish to unsubscribe, please edit your Membership preferences by visiting this same page.Please follow these basic guidelines:- As threads develop, trim off excess portions of earlier messages to keep them short.- Good manners are required at all time.

[photo-3d] short sightedness questions (Damir)

However, stereo picture (cross-eyed viewing) is>> fuzzy and I need viewing glasses (for far distance) to see them>> clearly. I know that this is more than strange.Damir,This doesn't seem strange at all to me. If you are short sighted, then full relaxation of your eye's lens produces sharpness somewhere closer than infinity (typically, much closer). Remember also that convergence of the eyes allows the brain to "pre-focus" to the eyes, that's why there is this link between convergence and accomodation (accomodation = focus). Only after pre-focussing, does the mind's eye do the fine focussing, which is based on image processing (for example, analysing edges and making them as sharp as possible).So for you to parallel view a pair, at say arms-length distance, the eyes' convergence tells the brain to focus "infinity" and since you are myopic, that means your "pre-focus" may well be perfect for viewing the pair that is relatively close.When you cross-eye view a pair, the eyes' convergence is telling the brain "close-up view", so your brain tells those eye muscles to squeeze that lens down - prefocussing to a close-up, which means your actual (myopic) sharp focus is now very, very close to your face.Perfectly logical, by my reckoning.>>>> It does not happen to parallel pairs (they remain sharp) or to cross->> pairs viewed VERY VERY CLOSE to the screen.__________________________________________________________©2007 Boris Starosta Stereoscopic Art & 3D Photographyabsolute web contact via <http://public.xdi.org/=starosta>Co-ordinates: 38 deg 3 min 23 sec N 78 deg 29 min 45 sec W Yahoo!

[Digital BW] Re: R1800 "pure carbon" approach?

2007-08-01T18:08:00.001-07:00

For the benefit of anyone else who may be facing the same decision,here's how the current cost difference breaks down between the R1800 &R2400:Refurbished R2400 = $500minus rebate - $ 75-------------------------Total R2400 = $425Refurbished R1800 = $350minus rebate - $ 75plus MIS MK ink + $ 30plus QTR + $ 50------------------------Total R1800 = $355Cost of new ink cartridges for both printers seem to be equivalent(though I'm not sure yet about ink usage). For me this means I'll bechoosing almost entirely based upon subjective considerations. The R1800 (with the 100% carbon approach) offers the highest standardin archival B&W on matte papers, as well as great color prints onmatte papers (with Paul's approach) and glossy papers (using Epsoninks). The potential downsides are those that Clayton mentioned:clogging, refilling and rechipping carts and an extra layer ofcomplexity (QTR).The R2400 offers archival quality probably sufficient for mostpeople's needs (I realize that is highly subjective), a streamlinedand intuitive B&W workflow, excellent color and B&W results with bothglossy and matte papers (though you have to swap) with no additionalsoftware, custom curves, tweaking, etc. However, most people say thatcolor glossy results are better on the R1800.Their dimensions and weight are almost exactly the same, and their arecustom paper profiles widely available for both.Tough choice!Please visit the Group Homepage to check the Files, and other resources as they are often being updated.http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrintIf you wish to receive no emails or just a daily digest, or you wish to unsubscribe, please edit your Membership preferences by visiting this same page.Please follow these basic guidelines:- As threads develop, trim off excess portions of earlier messages to keep them short.- Good manners are required at all time.

[Digital BW] OT- my C86 is misbehaving?

2007-08-01T18:08:00.000-07:00

Hi Folks,I've had a C86 for a few years now and until yesterday it worked fine. But suddenly it is now printing horizontal black lines (about 0.35"apart) on the page. I've rest the printer and my PC but the problemis still there. It doesn't matter what I print, I still get thelines. If I print with "Plain paper" the lines are 0.35" apart. If Iprint with "DuraBright Ink Glossy Photo Paper" the lines are muchcloser together (about 0.04")Any ideas? Or is my printer a goner and it's time to buy another?Thanks,Richard CookePlease visit the Group Homepage to check the Files, and other resources as they are often being updated.http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrintIf you wish to receive no emails or just a daily digest, or you wish to unsubscribe, please edit your Membership preferences by visiting this same page.Please follow these basic guidelines:- As threads develop, trim off excess portions of earlier messages to keep them short.- Good manners are required at all time.
