Never write anything you don't want to see on page one of the newspaper. (Axiom, working in a public office.)

I agree KEH has been reliable in all my transactions with them over the years. Also agree this thread is dead because OP has not returned in a month.

Yes 11.3 works fine with theG7X M2. Thanks all for your help.

Now switched to the Canon G7X M2. Anyone have any comments about that one? Thanks.

Installed 11.3 and works like a charm. Thanks!

Just uploaded some CR2 files from that (new to me) camera, and ACR won't process them. Is this a defect or is ACR deliberately crippled in some way? The camera has been out for a few years now.

ImageIngesterPro 3 is a very helpful program, can make backups, dng and many other features, but it is not supported anymore. Mine still works on an iMac with macOS v.10.13.6 (17G65). Used with LR and PS, two backups of each file, each on a different drive from the main collection, so a total of three. Also LR can import, but not as flexibly.

For years I have used a Canon S100, predecessor of S120 noted above.

I have been using a very handy app called Image Ingester for years. It copies my photos from SD cards, changes file names, puts backup copies on two drives, and converts a copy to DNG with Adobe's app.

 

Image Ingester is gone with MacOS High Sierra. I really need something that will do these things automatically when I click the start button. Lightroom 6 CC doesn't handle all these functions. Any suggestions?

 

(Thanks for your help. I'm not a beginner but can't see where else to post)

<p>Try the format function, which I think tells the amount used. Just cancel out, don't hit enter!</p>

<p>Stephen - have you tried macro? Maybe night photography?</p>

<p>Thank you, Peter. Somehow this particular craft had pretty clean windows. Plus, Lightroom helped out a little....<br>

It was a pretty smoky day at ground level -- in the background, just between where we see Mt. Rainier and Mt. St. Helens, and kind of behind Rainier, is smoke emanating from a forest fire. </p>

<p>Apparently iPhone 7 is the first of its line to have RAW support. Sounds good!</p>

<p>Some slightly different thoughts: For several years, I've enjoyed using a Canon S100 camera. I think the latest is S120. I adjusted to not having an optical finder and didn't find it much of a problem except in very bright conditions. It shoots in RAW or jpeg. I have several shots from it on the wall at 16x20" or so that look great. And the camera is very pocketable. With built-in image stabilization, I don't find camera movement to be a problem -- I can easily hold it steady without putting it up to my eye.<br /> About a year ago, I also switched from a Canon 50D DSLR to an Olympus OM-D E-M10, an interchangeable lens mirrorless camera which gives very good results and is quite a lot smaller and more portable than the DSLRs. I have several shots from it on the wall at 20x28" or so that look great. While not truly pocketable (except maybe in an outer coat pocket), the E-M10 is small and affords you the versatility of interchangeable lenses, a hot shoe, etc. It has a great electronic viewfinder as well as an adjustable screen. Shoots in RAW or jpeg. Camera and excellent lenses are lighter and generally quite a bit less expensive than DSLR ones. Very easy to travel and I can carry the camera, several lenses and accessories in a bag without breaking a shoulder doing it. There are various brands of mirrorless to explore.<br /> Not quite what you asked, but food for thought if you think you'll go on in photography. Best of luck!</p>

<p>I think you mean Port Townsend, a cool Victorian town, not Port Washington? There's a good park there also, Fort Worden State Park, which includes great views of Admiralty Inlet, the Coast Artillery Museum, old lighthouse, and a marine science center, all well worth seeing. Lots of old Army barracks and other buildings, some restored, and artillery emplacements from over 100 years ago.</p>

<p>Thanks. Does the camera also set aperture automatically (if so set)? I have an E-M10.</p>

<p>I notice the lens is not currently available. B&H has it listed for March, 2016.</p>

<p>Don't know about the film, but I have several 18" x 24' color prints on canvas from my Canon S100 that are quite good as far as I'm concerned. (Canvas being what it is, of course.) </p>

<p>A discussion of all the settings and ways to adjust them, is an e-book, "Supercharging the Olympus OM-D E-M10 Camera," by W.N. Green. There's a lot of basic stuff, but more beyond that, too.</p>

<p>The town is Port Townsend, a neat old Victorian waterfront location with good views. (It is maybe 25 minutes east of Sequim.) There is an old Fort Townsend park which is rather small. We prefer the larger, early-1900's Fort Worden State Park, on the north end of (smallish) town. It has lots of preserved Army buildings and the old large-gun emplacements on Artillery Hill. From the Hill, there are great views across Admiralty Inlet, including Marrowstone, Whidbey Island, and on clear days, the San Juan Islands and distant Victoria, BC. There's a pretty, curved beach ending in an historic lighthouse, and views of Mt. Baker (volcano) on clearish days. Good trails up to and on Artillery Hill (climb over and into the huge concrete gun emplacements; no guns though). Good museums including the Puget Sound Coast Artillery Museum, and a marine life research center with exhibits, plus the interesting old barracks, officers' quarters (you can rent), etc. <br /> Several good restaurants in town, old buildings, shops, wooden boats etc. Ferry from town to Whidbey Island if you're headed to the mainland that way. But, about a half hour or so south of town, in Keyport, is the U.S. Naval Undersea Warfare Museum -- one of the best museums we've been to. http://www.navalunderseamuseum.org (Near Bangor Navy Base, home of the ballistic missile subs -- you might see one headed in or out past Admiralty Inlet, with two escort vessels).<br /> Good luck and have a good trip.</p>

<p>Trying again - ok, I give up, can't put up a smaller file </p>
