  1. Hello everybody! Thanks for your suggestions! I really appreciate your help!

    Yes, I want to sell pictures I already have in my portfolio. Michael, what is the next step after portfolio? If I will print it as a book, where will you recommend me to send it? Does anybody have experience with stock? And if I will build my own site - what is the right way to promote it? Where may I get the release form to sign if I will take portraits?

  2. Hello. I live in Brooklyn. I really enjoy photography. I'm spending almost all

    my income for gear (hi Canon!). And I'm more poet than a businessman. Although

    I have family. Can anybody give me advise how to start sell picures? I'm not a

    Pro but I'm serious enough in what I'm doing.

    I'll be appreciate for any info!

  3. It's really very strange. That day I shoot with the 30D and 24-70L lens.

    Everything worked fine. Suddenly in Av mode the camera set 30sec shutter

    speed. Normal exposure at that time was 1/125 at f5.6, ISO 100. I tried every

    mode with the same result. In TV when I set the shutter speed, aperture was

    f2.8 (max for that lens) and blinked. In Manual mode I was able to set any

    exposure I want and the camera took correct exposed pictures. Although it

    shows that I'm more then two stops underexpose.

    I turned the camera OFF and ON, took out the CF card and put it back, took out

    the lens and battery grip - nothing changed. I cleared all settings with the

    same results. In 1-2 hours it started to work as it should for 7-10 pictures.

    After that I got 30 sec shutter speed again.

    Any ideas?

  4. Hi. I made monitor calibration with the Color Vision Spyder2 PRO. I bought the

    Canon i9900 and print didn't match the one on the monitor. OK. I created

    Profile with the Print Fix. I went to the i9900 printer preferences, found the

    new profile created by Print Fix and set it as default. I open CS2 "Print with

    Preview" and choose "Let Printer Determine Colors". Media was set correct -

    canon Plus Glossy. Print. The picture was 100% the same as the print I made

    without creating Profile with the Print Fix. Didn't match that one from

    monitor. Brightness, colors, contrast... What did I do wrong?

    Should I change mannual-auto settings in the printer dialog window after

    creating profile by Print Fix? Or after making that profile as a default no

    changes needed with the same paper type and print size?

    Should I check and enable "ICM"?

    Any suggestions?

    Sorry for the long explanation!

  5. Thanks everybody! I have cleaned the sensor - wasn't a problem. But I still dissapointed (a little) that it was on the new body. Didn't tell you - I also found some spots on the focusing screen. It doesn't affect pictures but...

    In all other aspects camera is pretty well.

    Thanks!

  6. Just received the new 30D. There're a lot of dust spots on the sensor. I know

    I can clean. No problem. The question is that it's the Brand New Body. Does it

    mean that I should expect any other surprises here?
