Photo book & publication workshops
I am looking to create and publish a photo book from an ongoing project, and would be willing to travel to any location in the U.S. for hands-on learning and advisement, preferably this summer. There are no production imperatives dictating an exact course of action, so I will likely consider...- NotXorc

Sigma 24mm, I was kind of hoping for this
I'd wish for something from Zeiss that keeps the same speed (or even slower!) and form factor, but improves flatness of field and has better correction of the outer 1/3. Otus = large. Enjoy your new Sigma; it looks very competent! -
Sigma 24mm, I was kind of hoping for this
I REALLY like the 25 F2 as well. It is a chunky/stout lens and if you don't need AF or fast 1.4 light-gathering, then it might just do the job. Here's a screengrab from LR of an image taken this morning. f/8 on D810. The diagonal line at lower right is flare from the sun, which was just out of... -
Digital Nikon with manual lenses
Sorry, no sun today. I may be able to try tomorrow. -
Digital Nikon with manual lenses
I will try the Voigtländer Color Skopar 20mm f/3.5 on my 810 in a couple of days. I suspect I'll have the same outcome that you did. Still, there are times when I might want the wide open 'glow' and could care less about corners… -
Nikon D810 Multi Selector Problem?
Follow up: Nikon USA responded, indicated that my camera wasn't right, and offered to help with sending it to a service center. Should be end of story --- knock on wood. -
Nikon D810 Multi Selector Problem?
Yes, I talked with a NYC sales pro today who told me that he had been working with Nikon for 40 years, and was only aware of 4-direction movement when reviewing images. :facesmack: He wasn't exactly patronizing, but as close as you can get while still maintaining some professionalism. I intend... -
Nikon D810 Multi Selector Problem?
After following up in the Nikon manual, it certainly seems that P. 248 of the user manual indicates adjustment in 8 directions, and confirmed by Thom Hogan's guide to the D810 predecessor. I have yet to hear from Nikon USA (not unusual on a weekend, of course). :-) -
Nikon D810 Multi Selector Problem?
After getting it today, I have run my D810 through the paces and noticed some unusual behavior with the multi selector (d-pad, directional pad, etc.). When reviewing zoomed-in images to check focus I have no problems scrolling quickly up, down, right or left, but diagonal scrolling is very hit... -

Nokia Lumia 520 – How to get full-sized images?
All the specs that I have seen put the image sensor in my new Lumia 520 at 5mp. However, when I share an image over email or export out of my camera roll, I see that the images are only 1.4mp. I'm not sure how to get the advertised resolution out of my little camera. None of the camera setting...- NotXorc

The PPW (Picture Postcard Workflow)
Harumph! Well, it has been doing all right until now without pics. :-) When I have some time, I'll consider posting an example.- NotXorc

The PPW (Picture Postcard Workflow)
In addition, I do print my work and use that as a litmus test for the effectiveness of a workflow. A recent print show was well received.- NotXorc

The PPW (Picture Postcard Workflow)
Since the thread is nearing a year old and I haven't had much to say through it's development, I thought it would be fun to post an update. I have stayed with the PPW, investing little time in other methods. There are some great alternatives and specialist tools out there, but I have found very...- NotXorc

Good Photoshop retouching books?
See this post too. Although the focus is on general color workflow, portraits get a workout in more than a couple of chapters.- NotXorc

Joke alert! Looks like PhaseON1E is bringing out a stretched-bonnet Model T! :D They're right, I won't believe it until I see it.- NotXorc

Sigma DP2 Merrill shots
Sauza, what filter/plugin/effect did you use in this image? When looking at the full size shot, you appreciate the painterly details and textures formed. Great picture and neat interpretation!! :thumbup:- NotXorc

Photoshop Layer Masks tutorial
Michael, I saw the short tutorial on your site via RSS. Kudos on providing insight into your workflow and how you think your way through image processing. Having played with a couple of MM files, I appreciate how much thought is necessary to achieve the tones you want in a file. Cheers and...- NotXorc

Digital Nikon FM2
While I haven't used a high eyepoint viewfinder, I've heard that many DSLR viewfinders are not up to the task of revealing peak sharpness, being optimized for slow, AF consumer zoom lenses. Since the viewfinder's optical path is different from the lens, the calibration also has to be correct. As...
