Not sure if this is the right place to ask, so please let me know if it should go somewhere else. I'm using both laptop and desktop computers and up until now I've added all photos to both computers. Whenever I've seen through them and deleted the shittiest ones, I also upload all the rest to my Dropbox. Then, I edit stuff on either computer (the one that I'm using at a given time) and upload the finished edits to Dropbox as well. This is obviously a horrible workflow which can go wrong at a number of places: I can't start to edit on one computer and continue where I left off on the other. I don't always delete the same lovely ones from both computers, which ends up being a mess when I'm uploading to Dropbox or if I'm just looking through them. How should I solve this? This guy shows how you can use Dropbox for the catalog file: http://www.hdrphotographyblog.com/tutorials/sync-lightroom-catalog-with-dropbox/ However, I would still end up with photos all over the place. With Dropbox recently upping their storage space from 100GB to 1TB, should I just upload them to Dropbox from the start and only save them there? This sounds a bit scary to me, but it might speed up the workflow and give me a better system. tl;dr: With two computer, my Lightroom workflow is a mess. How do I best solve it?

What's the best place to get my digital photos on paper and even in a book? I'd like to be able to design the book myself, in InDesign, Lightroom or some other software. I'd prefer some options re: cover, paper quality etc as well.

Re: the Lightroom discussion above; has anyone else had trouble with Creative Cloud? The Lightroom/Photoshop/Creative Cloud keeps telling me that I have to install my apps (even though I have) and keeps telling me that the PS trial period is over, even though I'm subscribing. According to Google it's a common problem, but I haven't been able to find a definitive solution. It's irritating as gently caress.

I've had plenty and I'm not alone. The stupid CC program tells me I my trial period is over and has done so for so long that I've stopped using LR and PS on one of my computers - strangely it's only I problem on that computer, not the other. Uninstalling doesn't fix it either.

89 posted:What photo structure do you guys use for all of your personal photos? I was thinking maybe converting to Year > Photos with a few sub-folders in the Year folders for stuff like specific vacations and events. Renaming all of my photos as according to Date Taken. Then, I'm trying to figure out where I can import my photos to and then have it rename them automatically and put them in the correct folder without the hassle.

Get the Olympus OM-1 and live happily ever after.

The original mercury batteries for the OM-1 aren't made anymore, but you can still use modern 1.5V substitutes. The voltage from these modern batteries apparently drain gradually -unlike the mercury batteries - and some people are therefore afraid that the metering can't be trusted. I've never had a problem and if you're worried you can just replace it regularly.

How do you safely pack your photo gear for multi-day hikes? Most of the stuff I carry is the things I need for the hiking itself: tent, sleeping bag, gas burner, clothes, etc. I don't want a photo specific backpack, but I'd like to bring photo gear without having to worry about ruining it. A padded photo bag inside a dry bag?

Why do you export them one by one? Make a collection and export them all from there.

They're easy and you can delete it once you've exported all the photos for the album if you don't want it around. You don't need to add more tags to your photos. If you turn it into a target collection (right click it when you've created it) you can add photos to it by just pressing B. That way you can quickly make a collection (think of it is an album) from different folders. It also fixes your exporting issue.

I think the consensus is that the Olympus TG-5 is the best.

I just discovered a tiny scratch on the front element of one of my lenses. It’s hardly visible and I can’t feel it, so I guess it’s a tiny one* (would it be worse if I could feel the scratch with my nail, in other words if the scratch was “deeper”?) Should I be worried about anything other than possibly the resell value? * it seems like only the coating is scratched, not the glass itself, possibly by a filter Xabi fucked around with this message at 19:47 on Feb 20, 2019 |

You don't have to go to Library mode and filter again, just go to top menu Photo > Delete Rejected Files. e: hmm you are already in library mode when you're rejecting, so just go to the top menu when you've gone through all the photos
