Prior to that I think she was on vacation with her family. Anyway, she said she would be taking the exhibit down soon and that she would be contacting everyone. She said, I'm way behind on email. All the photographs are safe in the gallery, and Sue should be contacting folks any day now. I should have posted sooner about this, but I've been busy making a mess of a photo project I'm working on. Anyway . . . that story is for another time.

I encountered a problem that once the exported video is uploaded to Youtube, the transitions (no matter how long they are, even if they are 0 seconds) become bad: they become jerky, artifacts appear (colored rectangles), under certain conditions the photos would be switching back in force several times. With all of that it was shown by VLC and QuickTime player just fine. I found one workaround. I saved it as 720p, then used VLC (the latest 1.0 version) to convert/save it into the same mp4 format. After that, the video was exhibiting problems in QuickTime player, but was fine on Youtube. The same done with 1080p was not as successful. I thought I'd share this recipe, in case it would be useful to someone. While this is less important, if you are curious, you can see what came out of that excercise: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lJcGkg_Rgg (If your connection allows, choose 720p, and see it full screen) Igor -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

unfortunately it wasn't. The M*300 I tested against was however.

Equipment: Pentax K20D w/smc Pentax M*300mm f4.0.
Notes: The A and M * 300mm f4.0 lenses are a bit soft wide open, but the
files sharpen up nicely, when they work. The A* is going back for more
work.

This was really a test shot to see if
my A*300 was now up to snuff, unfortunately it wasn't.
The M*300 I tested against was however.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1604247/PESO/PESO%20--%20%20madcongchrstep.html
Equipment: Pentax K20D w/smc Pentax M*300mm f4.0.
Notes: The A and M * 300mm f4.0 lenses are a bit soft wide
open, but the files sharpen up nicely, when they work.
The A* is going back for more work.
As usual comments are welcome but may be totally ignored.

Re: PESO cropping advice sought - Kuantan Mosque detail
If you're going to crop at all, the gentle version is my preference. I actually prefer the original uncropped image. Only thing I might do would be very slight crop to narrow the space between the tower on the left and the left edge. This would be to balance with the right edge. Also, I don't like splitting edge features if it can be avoided.

Re: Noise with K7
Well I am glad that my NOISE post is still alive. It is bad that Pentax did not make a better sensor for the K7. If they could do it in the KX, why not the K7. I guess the money issue (make more money with the K7 first and then bring out the KX and by this time most people have already bought the K7 and so now they will buy the KX. I have been reading the posts about the noise with the K7, with my K7 even at 100 iso, the noise is bad. Like I stated before that some of my photos were not used because of the noise. I have been fooling with Neat Image Pro and the noise filter in Photoshop and also the noise filter by Topaz. Topaz takes the longest to filter the noise.. My results have been pretty good but like someone else on the list said this is just an extra step. About buying Nikon gear, I do have a couple bodies but they are not new. The D1x is a very good body with very nice color and low noise. Also this body will sync at up to 500th of a second with any flash. I guess if I did not have so much money in Pentax glass, I would switch maybe. I have shot with Pentax gear since about 1975. I have used the Pentax gear to photograph US Presidents, major league sports, NHRA and IHRA Drag racing. News events, Spot news and just about anything a photojournalist would shoot. Even when I worked for the newspaper, I used my Pentax gear instead of the company Nikon gear. I had better glass. When newspapers were switching to digital, first we had the big Kodak DCS/Nikon bodies. Since Pentax never released the first digital body that they showed at the camera shows, I was forced to use the Kodak DCS/Nikon bodies, Next we went to the Nikon D1 bodies which was 2.7 Megs. It would shoot five frames per second and would sync at up to 500th. of a second, but color was always a killer, meant more time on the computer. At that time I bought some nikon gear and glass. But I still shot with my Pentax film bodies when I had the chance. So in ending my longest post on the list, I do hope Pentax will bring out a nice killer body with very very good low light. - Original Message - From: paul stenquist pnstenqu...@comcast.net To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List pdml@pdml.net Sent: Wednesday, June 23, 2010 9:12:35 PM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: Re: Noise with K7 On Jun 23, 2010, at 9:02 PM, Rob Studdert wrote: On 24 June 2010 08:59, paul stenquist pnstenqu...@comcast.net wrote: The Kx would definitely be better for low light applications.

RE: Feed Us Your Photoblog--The Solution
It can be hard to keep up with the PDML. How is one supposed to check each of umpteen photo blogs every day to see if they've been updated? Rick, the whole idea of an RSS reader is to collect all the blogs (and other frequently-updated sites) you read into one central location. I follow dozens of blogs, photoblogs, webcomics and other sites with RSS feeds, and whenever they post something new it shows up in my Google Reader (http://www.google.com/reader). Most of each new post's content shows up in my reader, too, but some blogs choose to have you click a link to their actual site to see the new post. Either way, I know there's something new on all my favorite sites shortly after it's been posted. I don't post PESOs very often because I pretty much lurk here all the time. It doesn't seem fair to ask people for comments on my photos when I almost never comment on anyone else's. I thought this would be an easy way to help people like me let others know that we do frequently post photos, just not here so much. I'm looking forward to adding all the blogs people have posted and seeing what they share with the world.

Re: Any chance of selling to a car mag?
Larry, Paul is correct in what he says. You will also need a tech sheet filled out by the owner and have him or her sign it, which also give the magazine permission to publish the photos. Also know as an release/tech form. I have if you need it. Magazines like Car craft, Hot Rod will have their own forms for you to use. On my page there are two car features of mine, the links being: http://photo.net/photodb/folder?folder_id=753552 http://photo.net/photodb/folder?folder_id=772282 These are the only two that I have online, but I do have a lot of others that I did not get around to putting up.

Talk to the magazines first. Go to a bookstore and find some specialty mags that feature similar cars and query the editors. Show them the pics you took previously. You'll have a much better chance of selling the pics if you can write an article as well. You'll want to shoot the cars in an open area in either very early morning or very late evening light. The backgrounds should be clean. Trees are okay, but its best if they are far enough from the cars that they'll be out of focus. Architectural backgrounds are okay, but you have to know how to work with them. Shooting the cars in the guys shop is almost certainly a no-sell.

Re: Noise with K7

If they could do it in the KX, why not the K7. I guess the money issue (make more money with the K7 first and then bring out the KX and by this time most people have already bought the K7 and so now they will buy the KX. Pentax used a brand new sensor for the K-x, which Sony introduced later (the A500 is the only other camera using the new 12MP part, it was announced 3 weeks before the K-x but shipped 2 months afterwards). The K-7 was announced 5 months earlier than the K-x when the two new Sony sensors were not yet available and there's good reason to believe the K-7's launch had been pushed back from PMA, some 8 months before the K-x showed up. Nikon's D5000, released midway between the K-7 and K-x even uses the older version of the K-x sensor and Nikon most likely had first dibs on the part. Pentax could have used the older Sony 12MP sensor that the K-x sensor was derived from, but then the K-7's noise performance would have been about a stop worse than the K-x anyways and it would have been a spec downgrade from the K20D. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

PESO Misty Morning
Going through the photos from my 2005 trip to Malaysia, this is one of my faves. A misty morning on the East bank of Lemanak River, Sarawak, Borneo, Malaysia as seen from the Batang Ai Iban longhouse where we spent the night drinking positively excellent Iban moonshine with zero hangover factor and boy, was I ever loaded. I still feel a bit bad for having gone there and watch them put on a show for rich Westerners but it was an amazing insight nonetheless so I'm glad I didn't have those qualms before leaving or I might not have booked that arrangement. The trip was three weeks with the first week guided and the other two spent backpacking and I hope to go to Malaysia again some day, it is a beautiful country, the people are friendly and very very hospitable and the food is awesome, you can eat all kinds of super spicy hot food but you will always still taste something and not just feel your mouth burn. And their breakfast, Nasi Lemak, is a great start into a day in the weather there. Some days I drank as much as 9 liters before needing to heed nature's call. It is all one huge sweatbox to me. http://tinyurl.com/eckinator4PDML Good? Bad? Ugly? Let me know!

Re: PESO Misty Morning
Exotic and miserable looking place! I imagine a temp of 98 degrees F and 95% humidity. I'd never go there! Regards, Bob S.

A misty morning on the East bank of Lemanak River, Sarawak, Borneo, Malaysia as seen from the Batang Ai Iban longhouse where we spent the night drinking positively excellent Iban moonshine with zero hangover factor and boy, was I ever loaded. I still feel a bit bad for having gone there and watch them put on a show for rich Westerners but it was an amazing insight nonetheless so I'm glad I didn't have those qualms before leaving or I might not have booked that arrangement. The trip was three weeks with the first week guided and the other two spent backpacking and I hope to go to Malaysia again some day, it is a beautiful country, the people are friendly and very very hospitable and the food is awesome, you can eat all kinds of super spicy hot food but you will always still taste something and not just feel your mouth burn. And their breakfast, Nasi Lemak, is a great start into a day in the weather there. Some days I drank as much as 9 liters before needing to heed nature's call. It is all one huge sweatbox to me. http://tinyurl.com/eckinator4PDML Good? Bad? Ugly? Let me know!

Hi Ecke,
This is something currently on my mind. I wrote this reply about ten
times and deleted it again. In a nutshell I would love for the
etiquette of this list to make room for more critical comments, I
rarely see anyone saying an image doesn't work but I do see an
enormous difference in the number of positive responses per image so
the going rule seems to be nihil nisi bene for most people and I
tend to do the same thing because of not wanting to step on any
toes... By the number of responses to my recent PESOs people were
mostly underwhelmed by them so it would help me a lot to know why...
My €0.02
It did happen at one time, again back in the days when Shel B used to post
regularly. There were one or two 'heated discussions' and the more critical
comments slowly subsided.
