Hi Everyone:

How goes the team?

Finally, took care of some photography maintenance—upgraded to Lightroom 6 and 
updated my firmware on the K-3, finally.  All went smoothly—though I had to 
call Adobe for a little download help with the laptop, and I have to say, 
Adobe’s customer service absolutely sucks.  I was stunned.

Anyway, I had some frames to try the pano feature; the process is easy peasy, 
though my result wasn’t so good due to some sloppy shooting on my part.  I 
didn’t get the overlap right in a few of the middle frames, which you can see 
below.  This pano is a total of 6 frames—the file is humongous!  It took 7 
minutes to merge.

I notice a difference in speed with the upgrade, which is saying something 
since I still only have four gigs of RAM, and I play iTunes in the background 
while working on photos—LR 6 is a bit quicker over LR 5 with the two apps 
running.

I really do need to increase my RAM, but I confess to being chicken—I’m afraid 
to unplug everything to install the RAM.  Always worried I wouldn’t be able to 
get everything running right again. Any words of encouragement would 
appreciated :-).


Later in the week I’m going to experiment with the HDR feature.  Should be fun.

You can see my very imperfect pano here :-).

Work should be easing up soon, so it’ll be time for some PDML fun—and I’ve got 
plans! :-)

Big cheers, Christine
