K-3 III first shots

2023-03-08 Thread Larry Colen
The first photo I took with my K-3 III was of the Mazda 3 that I've had for two 
weeks.

I've also taken a few of the camellia tree in my yard, starting to bloom, and a 
couple of silly test shots yesterday at lunch where I was testing out shake 
reduction.  It seems that it ran out at about 0.4 Seconds.

They don't like being moved or otherwise disturbed once in bloom.  Even 
watering can cause bud fall.  I had a gigantic one until it was repotted about 
20 years ago.  Never really recovered from that

epson 2400

2023-03-08 Thread David J Brooks
I went to print a document this afternoon and when I turned on my Epson
2400 printer, the green light came on for a short moment, I heard a
clicking sound then the paper jam and low ink red lights started to flash
alternatively.

Anyone run into this issue with a 2400, its about 15 years old

I did notice a blob of coloured ink on a piece of foam on the left hand
edge of the printer head rail, could that be it
??

Thanks - much appreciated!

Not actually *my* cat, just some random village mog, presumably the owner of

Re: OT Laptops and photo editing

2023-03-08 Thread David J Brooks
Thanks Godfrey, thats pretty much what i was looking for. I may just go
with a good ipad, lot cheaper than macbooks, as a secondary device and
emergency computer should the desktop ever fail, until i can replace said
desktop,

I have lots of backup drives.:-)

I am quite comfortable with LR and have used it since version 1. Looks like
a free version is available for ipads.

Either way. 

It's generally more convenient for me to set up Mail for each of my accounts, 
no matter what service they're hosted with, on my iPad/iPhone and on my Mac as 
well; either option is easily available. 

> - will the ipad support firefox

There is a Firefox browser available on iPadOS, but I have never used it. I'm 
happy enough with Safari as an internet browser.

Again, you can use a Gmail specific app, or you can create a Gmail account in 
Mail. Your choice.

On macOS, the functionality of manipulating directory structure on local or 
external storage is handled by the Finder. On iOS and iPadOS, the Files app 
allows users to do the same, in a somewhat more specific (and manual) manner; 
file system manipulation functionality is built into apps on these operating 
systems to manage their private, secure directory storage in a more automated 
manner.

The Files app is included with any current installation of iOS and iPadOS, and 
it can be obtained free of charge from the App Store with any iPhone/iPad as 
well. A screenshot of the Files app listing on the App Store: 
https://www.flickr.com/gp/gdgphoto/o3ZQXQ905s

Files can be used to create a directory structure per whatever your needs might 
be, either locally on an iPad or iPhone, or on external or iCloud storage. 
(Yes, you can connect an external drive to iPad/iPhone presuming you have the 
correct cable and/or adapters for your devices.) Since I do my photo 
organizational work on my macOS system, and use the iPhone/iPad for photo work 
in the field on a rather more casual basis, I have not set up a photo directory 
structure that mimics my macOS system directory structure but it's certainly 
possible (and easy) to do so. Here's what Files shows of my iPad Pro 11" 
directory structure at present: https://www.flickr.com/gp/gdgphoto/0310mtvb53

As you can see, the default folder organization is being defined by the apps I 
have installed and use. I can easily define another directory tree for photos, 
either locally or on iCloud or external drives. 

Inside an app like Photos, you organize photos into Albums to achieve the same 
thing from a use perspective. I generally use SnapSeed for quick edits … it's 
fast and easy. For more extensive work Photos used in conjunction with Raw 
POWER is an excellent image editor and so is Affinity Photo. Both Raw POWER and 
Affinity Photo run on iPadOS, iOS, and versions are available for macOS as well 
if you want to use the same software on all your systems. 

I generally use Lightroom Classic to do my photo work on macOS, mostly since 
I've been using it since it went to Public Beta 2 or something like that in 
2005. I haven't used the mobile version of it at all. When I do work on the 
iPad or iPhone, I move the original and the finish files to my Mac and bring 
them into Lightroom Classic for management and, occasionally, additional work.

Yes, the Files app works more or less the same across all three platforms. You 
can also use it to access other storage providers, such as MS OneDrive.

I keep everything in my iCloud Drive so everything is accessible from all three.
