    Re: Post Your Best HDR Photo

    Colin,


    I would have to guess they want to be known as a high end display maker as they are well known for their sound. I don't know exactly why, but maybe there is a reason that will make sense...

    Re: Post Your Best HDR Photo

    I know the 1Ds mark III does up to 7 for an AEB sequence and +/- 3.0 to boot. I heard from someone online that you can even program in a much higher number of frames as well. I'm not sure about the...

    Re: Post Your Best HDR Photo

    The 40D has three "C" modes. What I would recommend is pre-prepping them so that in the field you can set up a shot to capture quickly with just the flip of the dial.

    "It depends"


    Unfortunately that is the only answer. Even shooting interiors varies greatly. When shooting a scene that allows light to flood in directly, it could take me 10-12 frames at 1EV...

    More data.


    I've shot 9 frames 1EV apart shooting a high DR scene and then tonemapped with all 9 and then pulled frames 2, 4, 6, 8 and just tonemapped 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 which of course are 2EV apart....

    I'm disturbed that you didn't get the key from them already (software). I really hope these guys didn't vaporize. I sent them an email a couple of weeks ago and didn't get any response (non-critical...

    Adorama - Refurbished by Canon prices

    Anyone know if Canon has raised their prices on refurbs too?


    I went to Adorama last week and there was a 5D for $1399 and today I surfed over there and there is still one, but $1499. I've never...

    Re: Help me, please...lens????

    I wouldn't try and create some kind of ratio to determine or justify your lens choice. The best lenses tend to be the most expensive (think "L").

    Yup. When I needed gear I checked daily. They add stuff from time to time, but you never know what or when. Just surf there daily if you happen to need stuff at a lower price. They come in different...

    If you don't need autofocus, that adaptor is the way to go with the Nikon 14-24 on a canon.
