  • Seriously, you need to get a grip. And Microsoft knew exactly what it was doing when it made that Application for Windows 8. They KNEW it was against the terms of service to strip out...

  • My assertion that it's a monthly bill is aimed for professionals. For me it's a simple matter of transferring it as a business expense at the end of the year for taxes. Seriously, it's not even a...

  • Um...CS6 is getting near the end of it's lifecycle and even if Creative Cloud didn't exist, you wouldn't get any major updates until CS7...just like when you went from CS1 to CS2, or CS2 to CS3...

  • 1/320 sync for the built-in flash only. Off camera flash sync is still 1/250.

  • From the looks of it, this will probably handle about the same as the OM-D. Maybe the controls are a little different, but it's the same size essentially.

    The lack of a built-in viewfinder is a...

  • You've got it a little wrong. The equivalent to this would be a 24-70/2.8 on a full frame. The different crop factors of cameras only effect the depth-of-field, NOT the light gathering...

  • I like the "mini-boom" idea. That's kind of the limitation with these small flash softboxes, being able to position then when the lightstand comes up through the bottom of it.

  • is there an ignore feature for filtering out people that are full of BS? I think there used to be, but I can't seem to find it anymore. They need to put that feature back in.

  • yabokkie, you really REALLY need to stop with the "f-stop equivalent" nonsense because that's exactly what it is.

    17.5mm f/0.9 is a 35mm f/0.9 focal length in m4/3. You may be talking about...

  • The aperture is the same though as is the exposure for m4/3. When hand-held metering, you still meter and set the camera shutter speed, aperture and ISO the same. You don't go "oh, wait, must add...

  • The equivalence is to an 85mm f1.2 lens, not f/2.4. It's still the amount of light that's coming through that aperture.

    It's only considered f/2.4 when dealing with depth-of-field equivalence,...

  • They seem to be very understaffed. I would expect the review of the DH3 to come out about a week before the DH4 is announced :)

  • When I was reading about the "electronic shutter", I got a little excited in that I thought that we'd get nice high flash sync speeds, but then I saw the abysmal 1/160th sync speed.

    What a letdown.

    Seriously, you tell Lightroom how YOU want it to work, it doesn't make you do anything.

    I import my images straight off my flash card, into a folder structure on my HD that's broken down into...

    LR's image editing is basically a vamped up version of Camera Raw. The same editing tools are in Camera Raw that comes with Photoshop CS6...just not in a pretty interface (though it seems some...

  • Commented on The Lightroom catalog article

    LR imports the images to wherever you wish them to go.

    Yes, you can import directly from a camera card to wherever you want. Just because it "defaults" to somewhere doesn't mean that you can't...

    1. Slow and ugly? Hmmm, must be doing something wrong here as it seems pretty fast to me.
    2. Junk Adobe installs? What are you talking about. Can you give me an example of "all kinds of...

    1. Slow and ugly? Hmmm, must be doing something wrong here as it seems okay to me. But hey, we all gauge things differently.
    2. Junk Adobe installs? What are you talking about. Can you give me an...

  • Commented on The Lightroom catalog article

    No, you don't. The "catalog" is just a database of where the image is on your HD, the changes you've made to the RAW file and a high-res preview file for working in LR. It's NOT duplicating your...
