Last winter (2008) I was shooting in -20C and it was loving collllld. I have a pair of fingerless gloves which work when it is cool out but useless at that temperature. Also your battery life really goes downhill.

Sony manufactures the Nikon sensors but they are designed by Nikon.

Not sure where the best place to ask is so I will start here. I am going to be doing another trip up to the Canadian rockies, it will be around 10ish days I think with 4-5 of those in Jasper. Last fall I did a similar trip and found my self feeling a bit lost in finding locations to shoot (landscapes and wildlife). I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions on locations or has a website or book that may have some insight into some locations. I don't mind hitting up some tourist trap/iconic locations but I would also like to get some photos of areas that are less visited. Any help would be great! Edit: after reading the thread title a few times this probably does not belong here.. Dread Head fucked around with this message at 08:15 on Jun 9, 2010 |

Nikon will be selling stuff at MSRP, everywhere else will be selling it for less (except maybe hot new products). I am not really sure who it is meant for, anyone who knows anything will buy from B&H or something like that since you get the same product for less. Maybe they will sell re-furbs or something like that I am not really sure.

dunkman posted:Continuing the conversation from a couple months ago, I have thousands of pictures organized only by date in Lightroom, and I need to clear off lots of hard drive space. Buy another hard drive or something, storage is cheap these days and unless the photos are super awful, out of focus etc there is no real reason you should get rid of them. That said not sure how you would select edited files, often when you import a preset is added, thus editing it.

Heads up to flickr or potential flickr pro users, you can get a free photo book for signing up or renewing your pro account, no idea what the book is like. http://blog.flickr.net/en/2010/10/15/go-pro-make-a-pretty-book-for-free/

I use google tasks to do the same thing, I can do it from my computer or from my phone. After you are done your job/trip you can uncheck all the items and use it again.

Russians in probably the first (documented) digital editing of photos back in 1987 (I think Photoshop came out in 1990), pretty crazy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2PsiJXswiM

For your general interest: That is the standard for journalism and why when people are caught cloning in extra missiles or smoke it is a big deal.

I think that is just an easy way to explain to people without going into details.

Hard to say really. I have never worked for a major publication for something like that but I am guessing no? It is a really tough call on where to draw the line or to decide what is a "non relevant" detail. An extra missile in a photo may be a minor detail for someone but a major one for someone else.

ease posted:I have had the urge to try to get a bullet coming out of a barrel by just trying to get lucky with a 1/8000th shutter speed as fast as the camera can shoot in succession. I doubt using a fast shutter speed will do it, I think using a flash would get you much better results.

I think those fees do 2 things, limit the people who has just got a rebel from entering 20 shots of flowers and to re-coup some of the costs with having to have someone look at every photo that is entered.

Yes the fee makes them money but they also serve to discourage useless entries etc, you also have to watch out for contests that are rights grabs.

McMadCow posted:Same here. The guys at one of the local camera stores claim they can always tell the students from this particular diploma mill by the stupid questions they ask. Apparently you don't need to know what an f stop is to get an MFA in photography! I actually had thought about going to the school, I had even gone and had a tour and met some of the teachers etc but didn't seem worth it. I later actually purchased a lens from a teacher that used to work there. I have seen some really good work come out of the school but I am not sure how good they where before they went in. Like anything you will get good stuff and not so good stuff.

McMadCow posted:Yeah, I think the huge disparity comes from the fact that the instructors at these for-profit schools have no motivation whatsoever to cull the poor students from the ranks. Hell, even at the JC I attend I've seen many students dropped for absence or for missing assignments. This school seems to be better than most of these places and didnt seem to be raking in the money since the "campus" was not that nice and tuition was not that much more the public school I went to (for non arts stuff). That said, I am not sure how much someone would really get out of it, and talking to one of the past teachers who shot for some pretty big magazines he didnt seem to keen on the place.

Since it was shipping damage I am guessing insurance was paid out and the insurance probably made them destroy the products in order to get a pay out, just a guess.
