  5. Shooting Canon 14mm/5d mkiii, HDR 7x, RAW: When in post, I found that green diamonds in the backsplash turned brown. Any suggestions? I tried to extract and change colors without success. Thanks to all for thoughts and suggestions
  6. <p>I shot a residential room last week and the dark hardwood floor was washed out from a hot sun and treated windows. Instead of mahogany, the wood came out a tad lighter. Using LR5/PSCC, I still was unable to bring the floor color up to an acceptable view.</p> <p>Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.</p>
  7. <p>I am in the market for a shoulder device to hold my dslr in video mode. Fotodiox has such a device but my questions are: <br> 1/ do I need image stabilization and<br> 2/how do I not have motion blur as I move around my clients building?</p> <p>Any help out there????? Thanks</p>
  8. <p>I am seeking a reliable, easy-to-use motorized pano head for real estate application, using my 5dmkII. I bought a MH160 and found it herky-jerky and not smooth, and the slow speed is really fast. Does anyone have a suggestion. I looked at gigapan and find that is an over-kill. Otherwise, Im back to square one using a ninja nodal.</p>
  9. <p>Well, here is what has happened since....<br> Lexar had me format the card in my PC, then the card reader, and then in the camera. Whew!<br> I'm really at a loss now: do I trust Lexar when money is riding on the results? I have 22 Lexar cards and am very nervous. Although I don't do weddings (thank goodness), I am shooting for $$$ and have purchased two Extreme pro cards that Im using as my primary. To go through the formatting thing that Lexar had me do, tells me there is a lack of confidence by Lexar......I wonder if Lexar has gone too fast to gain the edge with speed, and forgot about quality.....Never had an issue before I went to 1066x. Going to return that card.. Cannot trust it.</p>
  10. <p>Well, unfortunately, time is my enemy this week. I purchased the Lexar reader and should get it tomorrow. In the meantime, I also, and paid through the nose, purchased two SanDisk 32GB cards from the local shop. And, I formatted them in both cameras as I have two shoots tomorrow and three by the week's end.<br> So, although I would have liked to load directly from the camera to PC, I had already wiped them clean and re-formatted. In my shoot today, the images proved OK. It was a series of portraits and the color/composition and all was ok. Tomorrow is a re-shoot of last week, so we'll see what the verdict is. Maybe the problem came from HDR 3x and 7x shooting???? Maybe the reader could not keep up with 7 images/sec?????<br> The issue really is, do I trust Lexar in the future. Thank goodness I don't shoot weddings! Thanks to all for responses. Pretty damn smart people on Photo.net!</p>
  11. <p>This is the response today from Lexar support. I am going to follow their advice and post my results. I did not realize UDMA 7 was so sensitive. I did format in camera, but that may not have been the real answer:<br> Thank you for contacting Lexar. We spoke yesterday about your UDMA 7 cards. I have reviewed the picture and have ascertained that yes this is a major side effect of corruption. Basically as I explained yesterday because you<br />used a non UDMA 7 compatible card reader, (an insignia 3.0 reader) the card reader could not keep up with the speed of the card and it forced corruption on the card. The corruption is present until fixed. The only way to fix said corruption since the cards are still working is to obtain a UDMA 7 compatible card reader and do a "Secure Format" using our Image Rescue 5 software. If you feel as though you don't trust the cards due to this reason. We can replace all your UDMA 7 cards for you, however you will still need to get a UDMA 7 card reader or you will have the same issue as before.<br> I understand that this picture was uploaded using the camera and not the reader which can bypass that for a short time but copy speeds from camera to computer are not consistent enough for a business. So from this point it is<br />how you want to proceed. We can have you do Secure Format using Image Rescue software to fix said corruption while using a UDMA 7 card reader. Or we can replace them all but you still need the UDMA 7 card reader.<br> If you have further questions, please contact our technical support department.

  12. <p>Wouter, you may be right. However, I found Lexar support less than acceptable. I had to drive 200 miles to re-shoot and there was no explanation or suggestion from Lexar about this condition. Just "go buy a new reader and email us and we'll see what we can do" How un-responsive can it be? I tried each card on two separate 3.0 readers PLUS my Dell 3.0 built in reader with the same results. I also thought of the camera except the 5DMkii is only 1.5 years old and the 7DMkii is only 1 month old. And, like you said, the odds that the same issue running on two different configurations is unbelievable. Yesterday one card <strong>completely</strong> failed and I lost ALL images. So, now I have to re-shoot tomorrow. Thank goodness it was not a wedding! OUCH!<br> I am very nervous as I have 4 shoots coming up this week, plus my make-good. So, I'm a little frustrated. :)<br> Thanks for your thoughts</p>
  13. <p>PS: Check my workspace to view image under Lexar failure. At first it was horiz now its vertical.</p>
