My suggestion is just to play around with it. But I say that because I like to find things out myself :).


as for what I did in the tone cruve: I selected a point on the line somewhere close to...

I totally get what you mean Jan... what I did was just to show the way I'd go... hehe, plus I'm not good in post, my hand is always a bit heavy, you know what I mean? hahaha

Totally love the second shot!! I played around a bit (just a tiny tiny bit) with it in DPP: I just edited the overall curve a bit. This should look something like "linear contrast"... I suggest you...

No you're right, I must have cut it off, but you know why? It was really tiny, i couldn't see it...and I actually didn't notice that i was noseless until i read your post...hahaha


I'll have that...

So, here's what I got....I'm not really good with photoshop, and you can see it from this picture..but still, I got the result I wanted to have. Thanks Sheiky for the help.


(please, do not...

thanks Jan!!!





yes I took two pictures of me in two different poses in the same composition, with the camera on the tripod....i'll search youtube, you're right...haha ;)

My question is primarily for a method to merge two pictures in photoshop (elements 7). I mean, I took two exposures with me in two different positions; how do I merge them into a single picture?

...

I know what you mean, I have it on my XSi and I don't have the money to upgrade to a body with MF Adjust (yet!!!), so I have to used at least at f/4.0 to get some really good pictures, which is a...

WOW, Stephen! Just wow!! Beautiful...


I'm curious...was it hard to get it right? I mean, I'm thinking I would have to try several times before getting something that good!


Love it!


Andy

I am indeed using AI Servo, I always have, and I think it does a great job at following the horse when it's coming right at me, but just as it jumps, AI Servo seems to have some problems with its...

I haven't written in a while (a BIG while haha), but this is just the kind of post I was hoping to find without creating a new one myself :D.





I have the 70-200 f/2.8 L non-IS, and I can...

well, i couldn't affor elements either...so i torrented it..haha...i couldnt afford Mathematica 7 (it's something like $3000) but i have it nonetheless...


I'm not saying it's a good thing, but...

as always, Daniel, your posts make me all the more interested in how things work, and not just the final product.


Since reading your post about the myth of smaller pixels having more noise, I...

Mark,


I totally agree with you. It's just that I wasn't too comfortable typing all that...in my first post I said that it is a valuable tool, as anything is, it's just that -maybe because i'm...

because it's less expensive.. because i can't get a job nowadays here to get themoney to buy a 7D hehehe... I have a more complete answer on the 3rd page of teh 7D thread if you're itnerested hehe ;)

did you always use the 85 f/1.8 indoors? Have you tried with the 70-200 f/2.8 or something like that? I mean at f/2.8? I'm asking because i'm interested in the performance of this body in low light...

So wouldn't that make it a marketing gimick?

hem...yes, but I'm seeing it from the consumer side, not the marketing side... I mean, if i'm a beginner i'll go for the lens with IS...

after the stupid message before, i'm going to give my real opinion on this body:


I really like the fps, the crop, the AF and the built-in flash trigger. Why? Because I'm mainly a sports...

haha i put "a cruch for poor skills" even though i don't think it is... i mean, it's really useful even to the most talented photographer...but the REASON behind it -i believe- is that dummies will...

is anyone going to buy it for me? please? I want one sooooo badly!! oh, a 50D would be just fine too ;) hahaha

No, no...camera on tripod. They were 5 seconds (for the london eye) and 2.5 for the house of parliament...


Andy

I bought a 718B Manfrotto tripod for $75 on B&H...works pretty well for what I do...I usually shoot with the 70-200 f/2.8 NON-IS and with the 24-70.


I must say that since the 24-70 doesn't have...
