Re: Still computer trouble, Thoughts ? and photos

protest of rights-grabbing photography rules
I thought this story might be of interest to some PDMLers. A new case of right-grabbing agreement at a musical event: http://www.bjp-online.com/british-journal-of-photography/news/2187922/photographers-protest-stone-roses-concert-rules http://www.dpreview.com/news/2012/06/29/musicphotographyboycott This reminded me of my own experience: Some of you may remember me posting here in 2009 about some ugly copyright rules for photographers at a regular swing-dance event in Raleigh, NC, Eastern Balboa Championships, where the organizer(s) claimed the ownership of all your photos taken at the event: http://www.mail-archive.com/pdml@pdml.net/msg509934.html There was a long discussion thread, where some PDMLers suggested that it wouldn't stand in court. The dpreview article addresses that: There is a fairly widely-held (and false) belief among music photographers that contracts like the one issued by the Stone Roses could never be enforced legally, and as such, their attitude is 'sign and be damned'. But it's a risk, and a risk that some photographers, it seems, are tired of taking. In my opinion, they shouldn't have to. While this is just a personal opinion, but the one that I would side with.

And ode to a lens
Not a Pentax product, but the brand isn't the topic here. Gary Arndt talks about replacing a lens that he's used on his world travels. The interesting part (to me, anyway) is how long he used the lens when it was literally falling apart. http://everything-everywhere.com/2012/06/30/an-ode-to-my-lens-2007-2012/ By the way, look at the photos on his site. As he said, most of them were taken with this one 18-200, f/3.5-5.6 lens. Reminds me that you don't always need a particular piece of equipment to produce good work. At $850 this is not exactly a cheap lens, but it's not extremely expensive either. gs George Sinos gsi...@gmail.com www.georgesphotos.net plus.georgesinos.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Fuck 'em! If they were any good, I would have heard of them before this. I am kind of surprised I missed the swing-dance event in Raleigh, NC thread, since that's where I live.

If you don't want to get screwed don't sign the one sided contract. From: Igor Roshchin I thought this story might be of interest to some PDMLers. A new case of right-grabbing agreement at a musical event: http://www.bjp-online.com/british-journal-of-photography/news/2187922/photographers-protest-stone-roses-concert-rules http://www.dpreview.com/news/2012/06/29/musicphotographyboycott This reminded me of my own experience: Some of you may remember me posting here in 2009 about some ugly copyright rules for photographers at a regular swing-dance event in Raleigh, NC, Eastern Balboa Championships, where the organizer(s) claimed the ownership of all your photos taken at the event: http://www.mail-archive.com/pdml@pdml.net/msg509934.html There was a long discussion thread, where some PDMLers suggested that it wouldn't stand in court. The dpreview article addresses that: There is a fairly widely-held (and false) belief among music photographers that contracts like the one issued by the Stone Roses could never be enforced legally, and as such, their attitude is 'sign and be damned'. But it's a risk, and a risk that some photographers, it seems, are tired of taking. In my opinion, they shouldn't have to. While this is just a personal opinion, but the one that I would side with. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
Re: Dogs their pets
Don - you should be able to use the Shadows/highlights adjustment in Elements (or whatever photoshop you have) to save some of these and the one i'd like most to see saved is Dogshow 6413 - It a hillarious shot - something about those doggies looking like bear skin rugs and contrast of the very casually attired owners and spiffed up pups. This shot is less cluttred than most of the others... very difficult shooting conditions apparent. ann On 6/30/2012 11:29, Don Guthrie wrote: Here is a small gallery of dogs and their people taken at a dog show.

First Wedding
Three weeks ago, a friend asked if I could videotape his wedding, and get some photos. We had met a few months ago at the memorial for a mutual friend, the one in One eyed Jack in the annual. I said I would, warned him that I'd never photographed a wedding, apart from one when I was in high school, and refused offers of money. Before the ceremony, I got some greycard shots, put the 16-50 on the K-5 and the 77 on the K-x. I set up my camcorder at what seemed like a reasonable location, and once things got started realized there wasn't much more I could do with the camcorder. In retrospect, I should have asked John's widow if I could borrow his 5DmkII, I also probably should have set the camcorder up in a back corner of the alter so it would have seen the faces of the couple rather than the face of Father Jeff. If I were to do weddings for a living, I'd invest in a few of those go video cameras, which are small enough that they could be strategically placed in bouquets to unobtrusively get much better angles of the ceremony. Other things that I learned: The K-x is not the camera for shooting weddings, there is no way of telling what it's focusing on. I lost several fairly important shots that way. The K-5 is close to good enough, but not quite there. The 16-50 is a bit too wide for shooting the ceremony. The wedding couple had even less experience getting married than I had photographing weddings. The ceremony started without my getting any warning. The long and the short of it, I got some decent photos, but weddings are not the sort of photography that I do my best at. I do much better at the method of successive approximations, trying things until I get them right, rather than fast paced, don't miss the moment, even without warning, photography. After the ceremony and reception, the groom asked the best man and I to kill some time with the bridesmaids, two from Colorado, one from St. Petersburg, so that the happy couple could have a little bit of time alone. The initial thought was touristy stuff in Monterey, but we ended up heading down to Big Sur instead. I spent my afternoon in Big Sur with three Russian bridesmaids sounds a lot more interesting than I spent the afternoon in the back seat of another guys Prius while we schlepped some tourists around. It's going to be a while until I get through all 1200 or so shots from yesterday. Apart from the obligatory ceremony, reception and posed photos, there are actually a few things in Big Sur worth taking pictures of. I did a quick pass through the pictures from the ceremony so that they won't have to wait two weeks until things settle down for me again. http://www.flickriver.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157630360497840/ -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
Re: First Wedding
Don't know which of these is K-5 or K-X. You know the equipment you have and you made the most of it. If the other 1100+ are like these you did very well. Shooting weddings is fun, isn't it? When I use the K-X I just set the focus spot to the center so I've got a pretty good idea what the camera is focusing on, then re-compose. Looking forward to Big Sur and the Russian Bride's Maids. If you'd had time, you could have gone north and shown them the Russian River. ; ] -p On 6/30/2012 4:31 PM, Larry Colen wrote: Three weeks ago, a friend asked if I could videotape his wedding, and get some photos.

Mine used to be. But single spot can work well. Multi-point focus is out of the question with any camera for this type o work. Your trusting the camera to guess correctly. I wouldn't do that with a Nikon 800. The 16-50 is a bit too wide for shooting the ceremony. Two cameras are required. When I was shooting weddings, I mounted the 16-50 on one body and the 50-200 on the other. Didn't have the 60-250 then, but that would be my second lens now.

PESO Eagle Iron and Leather
On my way down to Monterey yesterday, I noticed a shop with what looked like motorcycles made by the Blastolene Brothers out front. ref: http://blastolene.com/ The place is called Eagle Iron and Leather, in Moss Landing. I could not resist stopping and taking some photos on my way home. I'm sure that the technical quality of my photos would be greatly improved if I didn't consider photographing in decent light, or even using a strobe, to be for sissies. I did cheat a bit by parking the car so that its headlights illuminated a couple of the motorcycles.
