Re: GESO: *ist-D travels to Singapore

[Paul Stenquist]

Very nice set, Stan. I agree with Ken. I made numerous 12x18 prints from *istd 
files. They held up well.

Re: GESO: *ist-D travels to Singapore

[Ralf R Radermacher]

Charming, stunning and really beautiful. Those early Pentax DSLRs were
astonishingly good if you didn't overdo it with the ISO. I still keep my
*istDS because of its 'built-in' IR capability. Should also work with
the *istD.

Thanks for sharing.

Stan, don’t sell the *istD short. I’ve printed numerous enlarged images taken

GESO: *ist-D travels to Singapore

[Stanley Halpin]

I am working on coordinating some day-trips in conjunction with a cruise we’ll 
be taking this summer. A collaborator in the process is from Singapore. Which 
reminded me that it had been awhile since I had revisited my pics from a 
long-ago visit. About exactly 16 years ago I had a work related trip, supposed 
to be a week of meetings and discussions which I would bookend with 
jet-lag-recovery up front, then a free weekend at the end. Whoever set it up 
(no, it wasn’t me) neglected to notice that Chinese New Year was that weekend, 
most government and business offices were empty by Thursday mid-day. I quite 
enjoyed the extra couple of days! And, looking back, I am pleased to see that 
the simple primitive *ist-D jpg files held up nicely.

For your viewing pleasure, a selection of images from that trip…

Re: February PUG - Last Call

I had no idea what I was going to submit for this, until I remembered an 
image I shot several years ago.  I think it fits the requirements, but 
it's not what anyone would expect.  I've just edited it and I'm 
uploading it now.

Re: Epson 2400

[Paul Sorenson]

Could very well be build-up on the feed roller(s).  If the rollers don't 
grab the paper right in order to feed it into the correct position the 
sensor just tells the machine to eject the paper.


On my R2000 there's only on driven roller, all the rest are merely 
guides.  Use an alcohol pad or small piece of cloth saturated with 
rubbing alcohol held against the feed roller(s) and press the paper feed 
button.  Do that a couple times and you should get the roller pretty 
clean.  Happens with all papers but is most prevalent when you print a 
bunch on matte paper.

Re: backpack recommendations

[John]

I have these two LowePro bags:

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/278343-REG/Lowepro_LP19900_PEF_Mini_Trekker_AW_Backpack.html

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/279102-REG/Lowepro_LP19803_PEF_Nature_Trekker_AW_II.html

The Mini Trekker is sometimes too small (almost always too small) and the Nature 
Trekker II is usually too large ... i.e. filled up it's *REALLY* heavy and 
definitely *NOT* airline carry-on compatible.


I'm still searching for a "Goldilocks" bag.

I think in the current LowePro product line these bags might be the equivalent:

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1077478-REG/lowepro_lp36775_pro_trekker_450_aw.html

I'm sorry if this message sabotaged "inbox zero" for you.

Gearing up for GFM NPW, I'm looking for a new backpack and hoping to
gain a bit more altitude than in previous years, so that means
something suitable for light hiking.  My current one is an ancient
Domke with detachable shoulder straps and zero built in padding.  It
is literally falling apart.  I'd like something a bit more modern that
fits the following:

Two SLR bodies with primes attached.  Room for a couple more lenses,
some film, and the odd accessories like filters, batteries, remote
releases, SD cards, etc.  If it has a laptop sleeve, that's fine, but
it's not critical.  Some way to lash a tripod to the outside would be
extra nice.

Chest and waist straps would also be nice, but these aren't a deal-killer.

Does anyone have something they like, or would recommend?  Thanks!

Re: VESO - 22 seconds.. in response to TOO quiet

I was going to suggest that maybe the noise it made was off-putting, but then 
the can opener makes more noise ... although the can opener might be a noise she 
associates with food, so it doesn't bother her.

I'm not sure if this will help, but my Epson 4800 was doing the same 
thing and it turned out that a little flap in the paper ejection 
section, I presume it covers a sensor, had become dislodged. Putting it 
back where it belongs cured my printer. I believe that our printers are 
pretty much the same except for size.

If you want the ultimate in rugged construction - and pay for it! - then 
Portabrace is up there at the top.

Always been the standard for professional TV gear carrying but I notice they do 
a range of 'DSLR' backpacks etc...

Just DSLR backpacks:
