I scan BW negatives to from time to time, using TIFF as output format, and they show up as positive both in the preview and output. I select BW Negative for the input format and 8-bit or 16-bit grayscale file format (in the Output tab.) Are you sure you've tried straight TIFF output, as opposed to DNG/raw?

Re: OT Thumbnails and the Mac (take2) (Gaetan Beauchamp)
Hello everyone. I did make a mistake in the previous post when I said that iPhoto made a mistake about my camera. I had forgot that I did use the K20D also. So no mistake there. No way to change the metadata about the camera who took the picture. Am I right? What could you do about those metadata and how? Is there someone on the list who knows ? But about the thumbnails and the PEF, there is always Atomicview: http://www.antzero.com/antweb/?lang=enm=0p=0 who IMHO is worth of a try. The problem here is that the K7 PEF are not yet recognized as thumbnails in OS X. Apple make some updates but not for the K-7. How long will we have to wait? Where do we write to make the complaint? Happy new year everyone!

I scan BW negatives to from time to time, using TIFF as output format, and they show up as positive both in the preview and output. I select BW Negative for the input format and 8-bit or 16-bit grayscale file format (in the Output tab.) Are you sure you've tried straight TIFF output, as opposed to DNG/raw? Which I've never tried, but I'm assuming it means there is no inversion or other processing. On the input tab, press the advanced button.

Re: I'm done with models
- Original Message - From: John Coyle Subject: RE: I'm done with models That's a shame Bill, I've enjoyed many of your model shots. Is this because many of the models are amateurs or just starting and not used to the demands of studio work? Years ago I did a number of model shoots with both professional and amateur models, and the professionals were by far the easiest to work with: they expected to work hard, have changes of costume, not afraid to show some skin, but the new starters amongst the amateurs were much more difficult. At the level I'm working at (TFP) mostly they are amateurs, or more to the point, wannabes. The older I get, the less tolerant I am becoming of having my time wasted. Anyway, I've never had a rock flake on me, though one time a derelict building I wanted to shoot fell down before I was done with it.

That's cool! Dad and I were standing in his backyard yesterday when
two does, a yearling, and a fawn came racing through the yard. We
were a bit perplexed, since we haven't seen deer in his yard for a few
years, but then a Boxer hound came running through the yard after
them. He may have been a quick dog, but those scared deer were
putting distance between them in a hurry. :-)
Running deer was a shooting offense for dogs once upon a time.

Hello everyone.
I did make a mistake in the previous post when I said that iPhoto made a
mistake about my camera. I had forgot that I did use the K20D also. So no
mistake there. No way to change the metadata about the camera who took the
picture. Am I right?
What could you do about those metadata and how? Is there someone on the list
who knows ?
But about the thumbnails and the PEF, there is always Atomicview:
http://www.antzero.com/antweb/?lang=enm=0p=0
who IMHO is worth of a try.
The problem here is that the K7 PEF are not yet recognized as thumbnails in OS
X. Apple make some updates but not for the K-7. How long will we have to wait?
Where do we write to make the complaint?

the regular Mark II version, but it works just fine.
thanks Jim, now i know what i am getting. :) i have placed an order for
the k-x with the kit lens and it should be with me in a matter of
days (am getting it through a friend who is in the US now.)
as an aside, i still can't figure out why the k-x body alone costs $580
at amazon while the one with the kit lens costs $550... :))

Frank mentioned that in another post... Maybe I should take the hint and change the look of the blog... :-) It is certainly a rare occasion to be able to see and photograph a koala that is not captive in a zoo. I am jealous of the opportunity. I have to agree that the sky is not too cooperative. I am curious if you used some kind of flash on this one - seems like the face is just a bit lacking in depth, more like a flash would do that overpowers the ambient light a bit. Other than that, pretty cool shot and experience. Thanks for the comments, Bruce. Yes I did blast him with a flash, but that normally adds detail and depth when balanced properly. I also added a bit of exposure compensation to overcome the the brightness of the sky (I HAD to overpower the awful white sky or he would ave been a featureless black blob in the silhouette of a gum tree). Thanks also Dave and Frank for looking. I was hoping to see a wild koala this trip. They are apparently pretty common in this part of New South Wales. The weather just has not been cooperating - it's been raining pretty much every day which is actually good for the area so I'm not complaining :-) - and I haven't been able to get out much to shoot the local wildlife. I've seen a bunch of kangaroos, wallaroos, goannas, and lots of parrots and other birds but just have not been able to photograph them.

Re: PDML Digest, Vol 44, Issue 293 (Gaetan Beauchamp to J.P.Alling)
Thank you for your answer Mr J.P.Alling,
Could you change the Raw file in itself, changing the camera model for
instance, and be able to use the raw PEF file in Photoshop or Lightroom ? How
if it is possible? I can have access to the metadata using ExifTool but after
that, what do I do?

There are exif editors that will let you change meta data. Hell it's
just a file and data, you can do most anything within the specifications
even if it's against the rules.

Hello everyone.
I did make a mistake in the previous post when I said that iPhoto made a
mistake about my camera. I had forgot that I did use the K20D also. So no
mistake there. No way to change the metadata about the camera who took the
picture. Am I right?
What could you do about those metadata and how? Is there someone on the list
who knows ?
But about the thumbnails and the PEF, there is always Atomicview:
http://www.antzero.com/antweb/?lang=enm=0p=0
who IMHO is worth of a try.
The problem here is that the K7 PEF are not yet recognized as thumbnails in
OS X. Apple make some updates but not for the K-7. How long will we have to
wait? Where do we write to make the complaint?
Happy new year everyone!
