I want a lens that will fill the sensor with a half to one inch flower.
I do not like having to crop my wild flower pictures.  I have a Canon
300d.  I would like a working distance of about 8 inches or maybe a
foot (but I am not sure that matters).  Can some one please tell me

I'm looking into some substantially financially impacting equipment

Hi, folks.
I'm going to Yeloowstone and the Teton in early June.  Flying United.
I want to take my 20d, 4 lenses, a tripod and two heads, Gitzo ball
and King Pano.  all the camera stuff fits in a Tamrac backpack which

I usually upload the pics from my digital camera about once every two
weeks - and normally have 100 pictures or so.  Is there a program for
Mac that would allow me to name a lot of files by their date taken, say
like 5-21-06 Me1.jpg, 5-21-06Me2.jpg....ect?

Suddenly Exif viewer locks up when I try to view photos from myFuji
Finepix 1400z.
The best I can get is the blank frames showing, but no images. I`ve
tried eliminating the USB hub, tried a different USB port, but no luck.

We've been waiting for the Olympus E-1 replacement (the E-3?) to buy a
digital SLR, since the horse photography we do is usually in dusty

Folks,
What is the best type of pen to sign color photographs (not inkjets,

costs under $400. Dos anyone know of a camera that fits the bill? Am I
asking for too much?

Anyone here familiar with Acclaim Software's Focus magic?  Can it make
an image taken with a Canon 70-300 USM IS look like it was taken with L
glass?
Also, is Focus Magic to be used in addition to or instead of unsharp

I got photoshop CS. I tried to save a file as a JPG file, but are not able
to do so. When using the command 'File > Save as...', I can choose from the

Which compact digital camera combines the largest optical zoom with an image
stabilizer?
I will primarily be doing aviation photography

Looking for opinions on the quality of this combo as opposed to a
separate P&S with an equivalent focal length.  Very happy with the
Oly's images . . . I'm wondering if the same (or close) quality would
be there with the tele adapter.  I could only find one website
