Sorting Photos by Orientation

2009-09-13 Thread Denise Williams

Hi All
Just wondering if any Photoshop/Bridge/Aperture enthusiasts can help me with
sorting photos. I'd like to sort a whole folder of photos by
Landscape/Portrait orientation. I have Bridge (CS4) and have tried sorting
by Dimensions  Size (wasn't very hopeful of these working) and had no luck.
I don't have Aperture so would like to know if this option is available
there? Or any other suggestions? Don't want to sort 1200 photos manually!
TIA

Re: iiNet's BoB

2009-09-13 Thread Mike Armson

G'Day Walter and Wamugers,
It works but only just,it was in my opinion released before it was ready. It
was not delivered when they promised, in fact I collected it from the
freight company, and there was confusion with the  charges.After waiting up
to 30 minutes to contact iiNet support, call back could not work because the
unit could not receive calls. I borrowed a brain fryer and spent three and a
half hours with support on not so busy day (thanks Rodney) in Sydney, who
finally got the unit to work after a fashion.Apparently there are bugs in
the firmware according to iiNet and Belkin are working on it. Both Belkin
and iiNet flatly refuse to supply any printed documentation on environmental
grounds obviously the PDF's are a cheaper option as befits the product.
Modem PDF is 106 pages and is essential to the set up process as the modem
does not 'talk' to iiNet as they claim.The handset PDF is 31 pages long and
Belkin expect everyone to have a working duplex printer.
There is a long delay with outgoing calls, and the call keeps breaking
up.Incoming calls when I can get them also break up and there is no way,even
following the PDF instruction to get the ring tone above a faint buzz.
The handset is unpleasantly hot all the time and I wonder about the safety
aspect with the batteries. I have reverted to my previous Belkin/Ozemail
wireless router/modem which has given good service the last four and a half
years while we settle the legal points of the warranty implied.

 Hello all,
 
 Is  anyone  using  iiNet's  BoB broadband modem  and is it Mac
 friendly ?
 How good is the call quality and how often do you get dropouts with
 naked ADSL.
 The advertised wireless range is up to 100m. Is that a little
 exaggerated ?
 
 Some first hand info would be appreciated.
 
 Thanks,
 
 Walter

SanDisk Compact Flash card for Nikon

2009-09-13 Thread Lloyd White

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread! Again!

I have Nikon CoolPix 5700 camera that uses CompactFlash. Currently using
SanDisk 512MB. 

Recently in Dubai - with full assurances from the sales person that it would
work - I bought a 4 GB SanDisk Ultra II Compact Flash.

After insertion the message came up out of memory so I formatted the card
within the camera.

Still no joy. Should it work with the 5700?

If not does anyone have a use for it. It costs $31 duty free and I would
accept offers.

Otherwise I will have a 4GB back-up disk; which is useful for ?

Regards

Lloyd

Re: SanDisk Compact Flash card for Nikon

2009-09-13 Thread Philippe Chaperon
Hi Lloyd,
Well I had the same problem only a few weeks ago when the 4GB San Disk I
purchased for ... $18 at BigW, was not accepted by my Lumix FZ30. Turns out
the FZ30 accepts cards up to 2 GB also, like yours. And what's more my
multi-card reader San Disk ImageMate purchased 18 months ago for $69 would
not read the 4 GB card also.

I ended up by giving my card to someone whose camera accepts the 4GB ones,
and he insisted in giving me a couple of 2GB cards to compensate!

I guess that's the price we have to pay for the 'convenience' of a fast
progressing technology.

Best of luck,

Philippe C

Genes Reunited =Search problem

However, I am finding that the SEARCH button (for this site)  
isn't working. I suspect this may be because I use a mac rather than

Does anyone else use this site and have found or solved the problem.

Re: SanDisk Compact Flash card for Nikon

2009-09-13 Thread Mark Secker


This is reasonably common limitation on older digital cameras
The limitation is that the camera can only reading FAT 16 disk format  
which has a limit of 2GB.


Any CF card above this will be FAT 32.

You can, theoretically, reformat these drives as fat16 (formats them  
as 2GB drives) .


As to what cameras accept FAT16 or FAT 32  google helps if it's  
not listed in the manual


 ...

I have the following old CF equiped cameras

Canon EOS D60 released  mid 2002
Canon Powershot G3 released  late 2002
Canon Powershot A80 released late 2003

by dumb trial an error (ie bough the cards found they didn't work in  
one or other camera I discovered that:

The D60 and the A80 are limited to FAT16
but the G3, released a whole year before the A80 and only a couple of  
months after the D60 has FAT32 support.
