Re: Did anyone get Aurora photos?

I took a few with my phone from my front gate last night, just as a record. What amazed me is that they were visible at this latitude, from in the city with all its light pollution. I have vague plans to keep an eye out tonight, not sure if I want to go to the effort of getting any proper

OT. OM-5 first impressions

After the weight of my new (13 months) K3III in my handlebar bag caused my bike to fall over and but the Smart Function knob, I looked into OM-5s again. The price had dropped below my pain point, and since thanks to online shopping there aren’t any convenient camera stores to look at them, I

Re: New LRC catalog

That would be the ideal solution. If you can get the drive your catalogue is on working long enough to copy it to a good drive, copy it then tell Lightroom to use it. You should also have a back up of it somewhere, though sometimes it ends up on the same drive as the working catalogue if you

Re: New LRC catalog

If you copy the catalog to another drive you should be able to point Lightroom at that catalog and have your edits. Also Lightroom saves backups of the catalog, where are they? On May 10, 2024 5:19:56 PM PDT, David J Brooks wrote: >Thanks Bill > >The drive does work on occasion I guess I just
