  1. <p>I am thinking of updating to Windows 10, my laptop with Windows 8 with desktop 7 and a desktop with straight Windows 7. I use PSE 11+plug-ins to edit raw from a Nikon D800E. I print with Epson 3800 and Artisan 810. Should I expect any trouble with compatibility? Thanks.</p>
  2. <p>I agree with Lannie. Use the printer whenever you can. I have used a 3800 since it was introduced. New technology does not justify updating. Fire it up and good luck! Take it one step at a time from there on. The many replies you received are spot on. </p>
  3. <p>Several years ago I shot a comparison test roll for Contax, Nikon and Leica each with their 35mm f2.8 lens. Ten shots each on 36 roll Ektachrome. All of the same 10 low-mid-and high contrast landscapes. I compared the frames on a Leica slide projector at about 24x36 on a neutral silver screen. They were all very comparable and adequate. I forced myself to pick one or two that were at least very slightly better than the rest. They were both Contax. After that test I went straight Nikon for 35mm and have not looked back. The F100 is the one body that I have used the most. It is so flexible and compatible, it's almost boring. Just get the premium Nikkor lenses.</p>
  4. <p>If you would like to have the camera and finder serviced/restored to work nearly like new, send it to Sover Wong in the UK. Website is; http://www.soverf2repair.webs.com/</p>
  5. <p>Very interesting. I have been using a D800E since it came out. I usually shoot at 100 ISO RAW or TIFF. Print at 360ppi/dpi up to 24x36, with excellent detail. If I were to shoot at say 1200 iso, would I see noise?</p>
  6. <p>I guess I'll weigh in on this as well. I used a Flextight for 10 years. SCSI was a nightmare to get running, then it was very sweet. Since then, I have used a v750 on 6x4.5 and 6x6 negs, with good results up to 24x30 print size.</p>
  7. <p>I could not find any links to it on their site.</p>
  8. <p>I guess I have been asleep under a bridge for the past couple of years, since I downloaded PSE11. I just went on adobe.com and all I could find was Creative Cloud promo. Is buying PSE software no longer available? Is PSE 11 support gone?? Will my PSE 11 software automatically self-destruct someday??? </p>
  9. <p>This discussion gives me a flash back to 10 years ago shooting with a D200. The card crashed in the middle of the shoot. I had to start over and re-shoot on a different card. Next day, I went into my long time photo supply store complaining about the crash. I said, "give me something that is fast and won't crash." They gave me a box of TRI-X.</p>
  10. <p>Oops! I meant that I saw a video of canvas being loaded via the rear loader of an Epson 3880 model. Will that work on a 3800 model? Sorry</p>
  11. <p>I have been loading canvas on my Epson Stylus Pro 3800 from the front. It's a pain and I have to guide the canvas out the front using a pallet knife to keep it from hanging up and destroying the printer. I saw a video showing canvas being loaded via the rear loader, much like paper. Will that work on a 3800 model?? Thanks.</p>
  12. <p>Makes me glad I got the 800E in the first roll-out. So far so good. My medium format has been sitting on the shelf June 2012.</p>
  13. <p>I need to correct my F2's viewfinder to match my failing eyesight. I use glasses to correct close up reading. The strength number needed is +200. What correction diopter for a Nikon F2 should I use to see clearly and focus correctly? Thanks. </p>
  14. <p>Does RH Phillips and Sons camera makers still exist? If so, please forward contact information. Thanks!!</p>
