the card is fine , and this is not a problem about removing the card when camera is on. the

photos are corrupted becahse I copied to the MAC. the software for octanesoft does not work

for this, I already purchased and tried without results. that is for problems with CRW that

cannot open. My CRW will open but are all distorted or black image.

I guess I lost all my pictures !

I had the same problem a bunch of CRW files corrupted in my MAC thanks of using dazzle reader to copy the files.

if you know any software that will fix the problem please let me know.

thanks

hi, I used the dazzle card reader in my mac to copy all the crw during

my trip to montreal. when I went to open the crw's (after 2 days of

copying the files without checking if were ok), I realized all crw

were damaged-corrupted.

I retrieved some crw's ok (with a PC later on @ home) using recovery

software, but as I said I had several days of photos in the card and

90% of my images are not there anymore.

I red some articles saying there's a problem with dazzle and mac, and

will corrupt the files, but I don't know what is the solution for this ?

Is there anything I can do with all the files I copied corrupted to my

MAc ? ist here any software in the market that will fix the CRWs ?

or I have to forget about all my photos ?

thanks

Hi Richard, yes I did read that link, maybe I'm confused .. I understand even using only MIS cartdriges you still have to play with photoshop courves to get different results. this is the extract of the link :

thanks. Gustavo.

ULTRATONE 7 (UT7) FOR EPSON 2200, 7600 & 9600 7 COLOR PRINTERS

Roark Configuration- This is for use with Windows or Mac and the Epson driver. There are 7 inks in the set. They will print from full sepia to cool using Photoshop adjustment curves or from warm to neutral using just the Epson sliders on the print driver. They will work in the 2200, 7600, and 9600 Epson printers. The workflow for the 2200 is released, the 7600/9600 workflow is under development (as of 5/22/04). The Roark Configuration inks and cartridges all start with UT7 as the first 3 digits of the part number. If you don't see this, you may have the other configuration.

Bowhaus/QTR Configuration - We have Ultratone B&W inks specifically formulated to work with Bowhaus Inkjet Control and PrintMaker or with the Quadtone RIP software. Both of these applications are for Mac only. Bowhaus works with OS9 and Quadtone RIP works with OSX. These inks can not be used with the Epson driver. The set of 7 inks is a variable tone set that prints from full sepia to cool and anywhere in between. Both Photo Black and Eboni black are in the printer at the same time. The software controls which one is being used, while the other is shut off.

Thanks for all the answers, so now, with standard inks and standard software (phtooshop, canon, epson, etc) what would be the better approach ?

I understand that printing with MIS inks and RIP software is the best and looks like a PRO, but I really don't have time for that, what would be the best results using standard resources ?

thanks very much !

Gustavo.

I'm planning to buy a printer that can print up to 13x19, I believe

options are between epson 2200 or canon i9900, I mostly print black

and white in ilford gallerie pearl paper.

what are your recommendations, experiences ?

thanks !
