the easiest method of changing a dull Sky using photoshop CS.
I have a number of quite good images that are spoilt only be a lifeless
overcast sky in the background.

Matsushita and Olympus are working together to produce an
interchangeable lens digital SLR that will comply with the FourThirds

I want to achieve a shallow depth of field for portraits etc.  I
currently own a Canon PowerShot S1 IS, but even using the maximum
aperture with the maximum zoom the background is only slightly
blurred.  It isn't always possible or convenient to move far from my

I see the SB-800 at Adorama and B&H for 319.00, but was wondering if it
can be bought for less from a reputable company.

When I got my Nikon D100, I installed some custom tone curves to solve the
under-exposure common to the D100.  A friend of mine is experiencing the
same under-exposure with his D2H.
Are there custom tone curves available for the D2H, and if so, where?

I tried saving a RAW image as a tiff so I could play with it in PS5.5. I was
surprised to see the file size jump from 8 meg to 35 meg. I figured raw was
the straight data from the ccd and that tif at least wouldn't compress it,
but why is it so much bigger?

Hi guys, I have recently updated my galleries (although they are still a
little sparse).
I would appreciate any comments/criticism on any of the images.
Thanks

I've just been idly taking some comparison shots with a Canon 75-300 IS,
with and without stabiliser switched on.
The results surprised me so much I repeated them several times to be sure.
I used the lens at full telephoto on a 300D

hiya
im thinking about getting a new digital camera, I love Sony DSC U-20
and 40 but their resolution are quite low, around 2mb. Do anyone know
when a higher resolution U serie camera will be reseased?

I am trying to find a solution that will allow me to scan a large
amount of negatives into digital format. I guess I've got about $500
to spend, would like a scanner that can be used to other purposes as
I've got around 1000 photos to transfer and then only spradic use

When I drag and drop jpegs into Nikon Capture Editor the photo is
considerably different than the source (as determined by Windows My
Pictures). It is then obviously difficult to edit on an inaccurate
source.

A few days ago I asked what lens I might buy for my 350D to improve on the
kit lens.
After a few hours of research and lots of reading at

I found that a new Panasonic FZ5 camera is soon to be released (or perhaps
is available from some sources already).  It has a 5 MP sensor, a 12X
optical zoom, and it looks similar to the FZ20 but is $100 cheaper and about
0.3 pounds lighter.  Has anyone had experience with this ...
