ck the exif bruce, f22 and two diffused flashes, tripod, light box for more diffusion. and yes, i did set up the DOF. i even had f32 if i'd needed it.
this is something you,as i, are going to miss using a prosumer P&S. most do not go above f8. believe it or not this is a cheap sigma 28-80mm asf. i got off ebay for $18 delivered.. not a mark on it..

forgot to say that this was taken from about 15'' from the first egg.

Roy,
Your just one smart egg. :D

[robarro]

come on and post these. i know you have a bunch of pix already taken and stored.

JACK, you probably have a few thousand..

[uriley]

Robarro, that was quick. Those are very nice pictures. I especially like the one you just 'threw in' of the fly. I have a question that I will post in a separate thread. We won't be here the rest of the day- going to the new aquarium here in Atlanta. I'm going to try to make some decent pictures.

Wonder if it will work with TIFF? Three of my cameras do TIFF but not RAW and it's something I have not used much at all so far.

Photos I have, being able to find them not so easy.

NO, RSE will only open raw images. i may have a work around tho. let me ck.

[robarro]

i tried to convert tiffs and jpgs to raw or adobes dng but it just doesn't work.
rse will not open my fuji rwaw files either. if i convert them to dng then it will. go figure..

[calicajun]

Guess I can't have ecerything, I'm sure a program like that will trun up for TIFF's as well pretty soon.

Photo programs I have, PSP9, Corel Photo Suite 3 (if I can find it) and Corel Photo Suite 7, MS Digital Image Suite 9 & 2006 but gave Abdoe Element 2 and 3 away. So guess I'm set with what I have already just need to work them a little (lot) more.
As far a getting a new camera, I can't afford it right now at least that is what I keep telling myself. Problem is the guy who sits next to me here at work his wife is a manager at .... you guess it Konika Minltoa. So we trying to see if she can get me one at a (big) discount, other wise I will have to wait until the new models come on the market.

[robarro]

just ask for a tour of the warehouse and have wifey carry a BIG purse.. couldn't be easier!! you must have forgot your roots... lol

[calicajun]

His wife works for the copy machine division so I don't think they would have any cameras in stock. What you think I had not already thought of doing something like that, I know where I come from. :rolleyes:

BTW you or somebody on the forum need a Canon flash, perfect condition but only works on Canon EOS flim cameras?

[robarro]

i don't. i've got 2 dedicated pentax flashes. i sure would like the sigma 500 super tho. then i could flash sync to 1/4000 instead of 1/180. 1/180 is getting a little hard to handhold for these parkison hands. it's tough to look at stuff i shot in the latter 70's blown up to 8x10 at 1/4sec handheld and sharp as a tack..

[calicajun]

Roy,
Correct me if I wrong but if a flash has a speed of 40,000 of a second and the image being shot requires the light for exposure, then are you not then shooting at 40,000 of a second shutter speed. In other words black doesn't blur. At least that the way I remember it working in my flim days, set the camera a 60th of a second and the flash froze everything.

Hey 13 hours at work I'm going home, maybe I see you on here later tonight.
Bye for now, its been fun.

[Jaberwoc]

Just a quick effort here, took some searching + a couple quickly shot and added. ;)

[robarro]

jack, action is scary!!!
abode,, well what can i say. there's nothing over here that can compare..
great shots

[robarro]

craig,
you're correct but durations have come down a lot. my 4000ftz is about 1/500-1000 which is still fast but usually i'm only using the flash as fill light at auto TTL which means i'm still shooting at 1/180 with the flash helping out. yes i've shot things in a controlled setting where the shutter in on B and all you do is fire the flash from a different place for the effect but it is a PITA..

I see, guess I better get some new books and read up on the new stuff of today. They do still print books, I hope.

[robarro]

He.... hee !, That's my eldest daughter Catherine aged about 3, we couldn't keep her out of daddies car, she didn't change much as she got older. LOL :D
The abode is the Palace of Versailles, near Paris, and your only looking at half of it in that shot, it's ginormous. ;)

[davew98]

LOL! I've been kinda busy with work, details in another thread!

Action! This is the first time I got 3 images of the same bird in ONE photo, without editing.

Abodes! It's bound to be home to several animals.

Black and White! Size is equal to a 3 or 4 year old girl. A unique mailbox decoration. There's got to be a story here.

Heeeeres Betty, now I must apologize for the eggs, because I think I have use it before.
Loved all the posts.

Betty

[uriley]

Jack, your daughter was/is a cutie. She looked like she was having lots of fun.

Betty, I really like your gif. That snowman could never be made down here. We rarely get enough snow for a snowball.

Dave, your pictures are wonderful. That barn is gorgeous. Is it yours?
