Your camera must have an exposure metter in the viewfinder that you can see or? (an arrow moving from -2 to +2 may be or somenthing like that)

How do meassure the light? Matrix, center, spot?

Check that you may meassure in the wrong way may be.

Ok thanks. What happens if you shoot with a 4MP camera? I was thinking in a A4 portfolio in that case.

Thanks Bruce, when you said 11x14 I suppose that is cm.

And when you said "(all injets or all C-prints etc.)" you are referring to a printing house then, so I should not go for a "common" labb developer?

Well I have tried both. I usually borrow a D70 from our photoclub at work and I tried the 350D.

While the viewfinder and the body is better in the D70 for the same price you get a 8MP from Canon and not a bad camera att all, I think I will go for the Canon, it seems more easy to travel with, I am thinking too in buying one 350D.

The D70 is heavy and big you will find this irritate at some point (as I do).

Hi

I do not know if this is the right forum but I try here.

 

I want to do a portfolio (photo and papper, not in PC) and I wonder

how it is done, I mean what format the photos should be, it is A4 ok?

or maybe 10x15 (cm), I do not have anny idea.

I do not have so manny goods photos either but I just asking because

in a near future I would like to do a portfolio with my best photos

(if somenday I have some).

Do you send yor pictures to a labb for develop? It is somenthing that

I should do in a printing house, or?

 

I try to find in PN about this but nothing, is there any good site

that explains how to do tihs?

 

Thank you very much for the help!

With anny DSLR of 5MP and above you should be able to do an A3.

I did 2 really nices A2 that I have in my home with a nikon D70.

My sister has a DSC 707 (5MP) and they alsos did a A3 perfect.

But of course if you have the money to buy a Pro, buy it, a canon 20D or 350D will do the work too.

I think the rate with a comment should only be counted but what happens if the conmment is ""?%?%?&&/((" and the rate 1/1. This will be counted as valid, I don't know otherwise how this can be checked, it may can be done.

Have you tried the feature, save for web?. If not you can find it in file-> save for web and try with 800 pixels width.

You should use sharp at the end too.

Thanks Sean.

Hope so I just wonder how much it will cost here in Europe.....

Great idea, this is somenthing that could be easily added in our personal datafield and then find this trough the search feature.

If I can not trust my equipment then the answer is simple, no.

And because it is family you should be more concern you have to do more than the best here.

Good Luck

I think you talk about pictures, I do not know if the operating system of your camera allows this. You have to have the encryption SW embedded in you operating system and I do not see how this can be done in a camera. May be in your PC with the card reader this could work.

That was a good hint, I always look photos here, and agree the originals one are in the middle or little behind.

Thanks

RAW; do not forget that if you use jpeg the camera will do the compression (RAW to jpeg) for you, you can do this better in your computer with the delivered SW, if it is a good one.

Raw IS THE "DIGITAL NEGATIVE" so you take the whole catched value (light into the sensor)from the camera sensor into your file, of course some sample before that.

I would shot RAW.

Ok I am buying one, thanks!

How is possible to do this:

I want to move a portrait, let's say my child in a black background.

It is pretty complicated to use the Magic Stick(?) I do not get the

whole sillhouette to move it to a new black background image.

So how can I do this in an easy way?

Thanks for the help.

I using PS and when seaving with layers files get bigger. PS (or CS) is saving all information from all layers in a own file extension called PSD.

If you wanna save space you may be can think of doing a copy of your original work on it flatt the image (you will loose the layers here) and then savibg the image as jpeg.

It is only one solution if you do not wanna have MB of files, but sure there are other solutions too. I am not an expert in CS or PS but i use PS pretty much nad still learning.

What is this about Leo.

Someone deleted your critiques?

Phong, I already do what you are sugesting. Mostly of the comments that I got came from people that I commented theirphotos or portfolio.

I am learning in all the ways I can, reading ooks, internet, etc.

This idea of the Comment Recent is just an idea to have a kind of alternative to the RR, that is all.

Thanks

Barry, ok I supposse that was Finnish, but then not need to be anonymous.

I propose an idea before but I never got answer, why not force people to put a comment when rating from 3 and bellow?

Then either they rate bad and comment or do not. They can still be anonymous but at least we will get our 1 and 2 but commented or?

Hi All

Because all the problems with rates (I see people complains often

about them) why not opening a Comment Recent queue? (It is only an

idea so do not throw me stones).

The window comment in RR is not so widely used, I do not get

constructive comments there, the average of constructive

comments/photo is very low in RR so why not a CR (Comment Recent)

queue?

Here we could post one photo (or two for example) to just to get it

commented, no need for rates here just for learn. The only way I

could learn is by commenting photos and getting my photos commented.

If a photo does not get commented then goes down in the queue until

it stops showing up. People coming here will know that they have to

comment and nothing else, it could also be per category.

I mean, this is only an idea that could be worth to try to get an

alternative to the RR queue. What do you think? (Sorry for my

English) Thanks for reading

(I put a post before but I explain myself wrong, this one is the

right one, I hope...)

PLEASE somebody from the admin, delete this thread I will rewrite this again, I think it was to early in the morning for posting threads.

Please sorry...............
