Can I retroactively change lens data across multiple images in LR?
I know I am in danger of being referred to the tutorials here, and if so that’s OK, but I’m copping out and posing the question here after googling for help and not getting any good leads: Can I retroactively change lens data, specifically, the focal length of the lens, across multiple images in LR?

One cold, cloudy, foggy morning I stepped out with the K-5 and 18-135 WR in our neighborhood - Thornhill, Ontario - where you can see the tree to the left of our house, photo 5331. I was amazed to see whiffs of vapor / smoke coming out from the barks of this tree - a phenomenon I had never seen before. Fall colors begin to show and the maple tree leaves - Canadas symbol on the Flag - are turning a beautiful red gold. Soon many of the the trees will become skeletons when the leaves fall to the ground. One such lonely red gold maple leaf can be seen on the rusted man-hole.

Re: Good Ars Technica article on photography copyright
I quote from the article: I am leaving professional photography for an academic position less prone to the frustrations of a floundering copyright system. But that's not right, exactly, the copyright system isn't floundering, it works quite well for those it's designed to protect. Disney studios and their like benefit greatly, and somewhat smaller players with somewhat looser ethics, benefit as well. If they can afford a legal staff, to fight for your rights, they're in good shape. While at the same time if the big players, accidentally, or maybe not so accidentally, violate someone else' copyright, and it's a small player, it's unlikely they'll even be able to effectively challenge the violation. The copyright system works just fine. Then again maybe I'm just cynical.

Re: bending in the sky?
On Thu, Sep 25, 2014 at 12:50:42AM -0400, Igor PDML-StR wrote: While processing photos that had a lot of blue sky in them (from Dallas Hot Air Balloon Festival), I noticed an interesting effect: while LR (3.6) is loading the full preview, it is showing some lower quality preview (from the thumbnail?), and there is clear bending effect showing in the sky area. Once the full preview is loaded, no bending can be seen. I haven't seen this type of effect in any of the previous photos. I wonder what could be different with these photos... higher dynamic range in the sky? Stronger gradient? Any thoughts? Igor I assume you mean banding :-) Large areas of sky are the parts of a photograph where you are most likely to see banding, because that's the most common case of a large area with uniform weak colour gradients. The easiest way to see this is to generate JPEGs with smaller and smaller file sizes; the smaller the file size the more pronounced the banding will be. The embedded preview JPEG generated in-camera will use a fairly low quality setting. There's also the fact that the human visual system is exceptionally good at spotting patterns, so you pick out the edge of the bands and enhance them. -- 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: Can I retroactively change lens data across multiple images in LR?
Eric, I am afraid the answer is no, not from LR.

I haven't worked with ver. 5, but from what I know about both 3.x and 4.x, I assume Adobe have not added that capability to ver.5.x.

Thanks, Igor What matters most is how the images look in print... I'll have a hard copy in my hands in a couple of days. Also, the photos you see here are not the exact files that are being used for the print runs at cafepress... Incidentally - that photo is the only one of the lot taken with film - kodachrome 64... scanned by Spectra for me about 20 years ago.

Re: Geso: A walk in the woods

A few technical comments beyond what I wanted to put in my blog: The first shot is color IR because otherwise the leaves of the tree and the overcast sky virtually blend together. The color gives much better tonal separation. I took the second shot in both IR and color (K10D and K3). Invisible in the IR shot but distracting in the color shot is a good bit of dead foliage in the foreground. So instead of getting a nice green frame around the sunken boat there is a distracting green and brown mess of foliage. The IR shot rendered as mono worked best. This was the only loation where I used the Takumar F 70-200 and that was to get frame filling shot of the shipwreck out in the bay. The lens is wickedly sharp and the detail in the old hulk of a boat is interesting at actual pixels since you can see a lot of detail - but a smaller image showing just the wreck out in the water without context is not interesting so it didn't get posted. At the end of the day I could have lived without any lens longer than 70mm. The third shot was probably the most technically challenging in that there was a persistent glare off the wood hull of the sunken boat and the algae around it. I was glad I packed a polarizing filter. With the polarizer and a little post exposure processing things came out OK. Thanks for looking and comments appreciated.
