Re: Convert Raw to JPG
I will explain the example I faced myself. This doesn't happens frequently but it happended exactly the day I was sowing my brand new K10D to hte whole family ;) We had a family dinner (yeah with kids and so on) and of course parents wanna see the pics but... on the PC upstairs? No way... not practical. On the TV? Ouch, awfull. So? Well, my brother had one of those small Canon Selphy printer. As often the auto WB of the K10D was a bit off. I changed the WB to what it should have been, downgraded Mpix (why print 10 Mpix on such a small print?) and sent it to the printer directly. I was happy to see I could show my production and parents were delighted to see their kids on my print. Quick effective. This is an example but I can really see someone making such a quick proint to show the customer and idea of what will the finished work look like. It may not be a killer feature, but that one can really be VERY useful at time. Definitely love that feature. -- Thibault Massart aka Thibouille -- K10D,Z1,SuperA,KX,MX, P30t and KR-10x ;) ... -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net

Re: Link to some good IR processing
Thanks for the link, David. I've always just thrown my digital IR into BW and then toned it (as I would any BW shot) using Duotones or Tritones. But I tried some of the processes used on the site you reference and they worked nicely. A few shots from this afternoon are here (ignore the stuff after the 3 IR shots.) - http://www.markcassino.com/galleries/stream/stream07.htm I always wanted to get some color in my IR shots - and this seems to do the trick. I took a WB reading off the 'grass' (it's pretty dry and more like un-cut hay) *with* the IR filter on the camera. the coloration is more or less straight form the camera after that, with some PS tweaking. It's interesting - after taking a few shots with that WB and then processing them in PS, it was easy to figure out how just do it from any WB in Photoshop. Now I can go back and re-work my old shots. I guess it's alway easier to reverse-engineer than to engineer... But I like the effect!

Re: New Scanner
Vuescan is a scanning application, in the same vein as SilverFast. I prefer using it as it lends more control of scanning specifics, is less expensive, and is constantly being updated/tuned by its author. And it's also 'generic' ... it drives a whole bunch of different scanners rather than having to have the version targeting a specific scanner. I've been using Vuescan for all my scanning since 1998 or so, whenever it first came out. I drive the Nikon LS-40, Minolta Scan Dual II, Epson 2450 and V700 with it. It does a great job. Takes a bit to learn but works well. The author, Ed Hamrick, is very knowledgeable and has some of the best scanning algorithms around. See http://www.hamrick.com/vsm.html for more details. You can download and experiment with an evaluation copy to see whether you like it more. Godfrey On Jun 29, 2007, at 5:07 PM, Norm Baugher wrote: Can you extrapolate a little more on Vuescan?

Re: New K10D
Glad you like it. The K10D is a very fine camera offered at an excellent price. Its value proposition is similar or equal to that of the Nikon D200 at 2/3 the price, and it has some features that are unique and very useful. It also does a damn fine job of 'getting out of the way' in use, which I appreciate a heck of a lot. Question: Is that Bright mode anything special or is just some combination of Sharpness, Contrast, and Saturation that I could do with the three sliding scales. For example, if I set bright mode and throw the sharpness to full (not saying this is a good idea) is it sharper than full power sharpness alone? I can't find an answer anywhere in the manual, and I haven't tried it experimentally yet. The Bright color tone resets the base parameters upon which other image processing settings for JPEG rendering are dependent. So while you might be able to get close to what Bright color tone does by setting Natural then tweaking the SCS controls, the setting changes the range and nature of adjustability of the other SCS controls.

Re: Wedding lens?
Hi! I usually have a short zoom (28-70mm range) and a telephoto prime with a big aperture to shoot with available light (usually my 135/2.5). The short zoom is for group and close quarter shots; the telephoto are for the ceremony since I usually avoid going on the altar or stage area of the church. My wedding photos are on http://www.bong.uni.cc/gallery click on 'weddings' Bong On 6/29/07, Gasha [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks, my usual lens are MF 50/1.4 and 135/3.5 ... not very good for reportages and weddings :) Another option will be F28/2.8, no zoom but at least fast prime.
