Re: [Slightly different problem] Controlling location to which LR imports (v2)

2011-04-28 Thread Thibouille
2011/4/27 David Parsons parsons.da...@gmail.com:
 You can remove a picture from the catalog without deleting it from the disk.

 Delete the file (in LR), and when the prompt comes up, select Remove.
 That will remove it from the catalog and keep it on disk.


I knew bout that but if you delete it from the second catalog, you'll
end with plenty of files not in catalog anymore which is useless IMO.

 I presently work with 2 catalogs. One for my personal work and one for
 my photo courses

 Now, my problem: I realized I imported files from my Courses catalog
 at the place I store my own files (lets call it Personal catalog). ...

 I'm not entirely sure I understand. Is this the situation?

 - You have two catalogs intended for different purposes, Personal and Courses.
 - You do not want the image files to be included in both catalogs.
 - When you import with each catalog, you want LR to move your image
 files into different file system locations to keep them separated.

Yes, sir.

 - When you imported files into your Courses catalog, you inadvertently
 set LR to place the files in the file system location normally used
 for your Personal files.

It may be. Actually, looking at the rest of your post, I see that is
most probably the problem.
I, indeed, broke myself the thing.

 I do not want to mix files, deleting a file when it is also present in
 the second catalog will create a big mess and since LR can't open both
 catalog at the same time... can't do another way.

 Did I messed things up? Or did LR? I'm under the impression that LR
 keeps the last import settings in memory but do NOT it does so in
 relation to what catalog is opened. Which means, if I'm no cautious
 enough, things gets mixed (and messed up). Is it so ?

 The worst thing that can happen if you delete files from one catalog
 (and delete or move them around in the file system) is that the same
 image files also present in the other catalog will come up with
 question marks saying that Lightroom can't find them. All you have to
 do is tell the catalog with the question marks to synchronize with the
 file system and remove missing files.

Yep, indeed, that what happended (followed by a loud S**T) ;)
But I copied back the files where I intended them to be otherwise it
becomes a big mess.


 Similarly, once you put the files into the right locations for the
 other catalog, either re-import them or synchronize existing folders
 into which they've been placed.

Will do, thanks.

 Lightroom remembers import settings on a per catalog basis
 automatically, but the sensible and safe thing to do if you want LR to
 move files into separate locations in two different catalogs/import
 scenarios is to define two import presets, one for each catalog, and
 remember to choose the correct one when doing your imports.

That, I was unsure about. Thank you for pointing it out and more
thanks because I never thought about the import presets.
To me it was more like doing a couple adjustments/conversions at
import time which I didn't want to.

 I have about four different import scenarios articulating in what
 destinations in the file system I want imports to place the files, so
 I have a preset set up for each of them.

Will certainly do as well now. Thank you much Godfrey :)

flaws, and I would like to learn from other's experience with
controlled vocabularies. Self-made or bought. How do you maintain
them?

Jostein


Interesting question, sir. I tend to be more than extremely careful 
about my keywords. I regularly look at Keyword List of my LR and mop 
things up so that I don't have too many keywords. The organization is by:

* Place (Norway :-), Israel, etc)
* People (Family, Friends, PDML visits and PDML visitors, etc)
* Event (Concert where I shot, etc)
* Project (Galia's school, Books that Galia and I made, etc)
* Submitted-to (PUG, PPG, PESO, etc)

I don't care too much about classical vocabularies, but I do care 
about the convenience of that of mine. Seems to work most of the time 
this far.

Display of best pictures

2011-04-28 Thread Bob Sullivan
Just a short comment on the PDML book benefits.
It forced me into a critical look at my 2010 pictures.
I had to be ruthless about technical quality, but
also wanted some things beyond landscapes/flowers/etc.
I probably ended up with 50 shots including the above,
plus family, friends, and other atypical stuff for me.
They went into a folder on my windows laptops and are
being used as my screen saver.  I get a good deal of
enjoyment seeing these pictures pop-up as my background.

 I presently work with 2 catalogs. One for my personal work and one for
 my photo courses

 Now, my problem: I realized I imported files from my Courses catalog
 at the place I store my own files (lets call it Personal catalog). ...

 I'm not entirely sure I understand. Is this the situation?

 - You have two catalogs intended for different purposes, Personal and 
 Courses.
 - You do not want the image files to be included in both catalogs.
 - When you import with each catalog, you want LR to move your image
 files into different file system locations to keep them separated.

 Yes, sir.

 - When you imported files into your Courses catalog, you inadvertently
 set LR to place the files in the file system location normally used
 for your Personal files.

 It may be. Actually, looking at the rest of your post, I see that is
 most probably the problem.
 I, indeed, broke myself the thing.

 I do not want to mix files, deleting a file when it is also present in
 the second catalog will create a big mess and since LR can't open both
 catalog at the same time... can't do another way.

 Did I messed things up? Or did LR? I'm under the impression that LR
 keeps the last import settings in memory but do NOT it does so in
 relation to what catalog is opened. Which means, if I'm no cautious
 enough, things gets mixed (and messed up). Is it so ?

 The worst thing that can happen if you delete files from one catalog
 (and delete or move them around in the file system) is that the same
 image files also present in the other catalog will come up with
 question marks saying that Lightroom can't find them. All you have to
 do is tell the catalog with the question marks to synchronize with the
 file system and remove missing files.

 Yep, indeed, that what happended (followed by a loud S**T) ;)
 But I copied back the files where I intended them to be otherwise it
 becomes a big mess.


 Similarly, once you put the files into the right locations for the
 other catalog, either re-import them or synchronize existing folders
 into which they've been placed.

 Will do, thanks.

 Lightroom remembers import settings on a per catalog basis
 automatically, but the sensible and safe thing to do if you want LR to
 move files into separate locations in two different catalogs/import
 scenarios is to define two import presets, one for each catalog, and
 remember to choose the correct one when doing your imports.

 That, I was unsure about. Thank you for pointing it out and more
 thanks because I never thought about the import presets.
 To me it was more like doing a couple adjustments/conversions at
 import time which I didn't want to.

 I have about four different import scenarios articulating in what
 destinations in the file system I want imports to place the files, so
 I have a preset set up for each of them.

 Will certainly do as well now. Thank you much Godfrey :)

Trane, crane. Four out of five characters right, I can live with that :-)

(Thanks for pointing it out, corrected=

The couple settled last summer, and they had success with one chick.
So I'm making optimistic plans. Already got a primitive gapahuk on
sight, and Øyvind is setting up at camouflage net at the other side of
the pond. But we will not make a move, unless we are pretty surtain we
can do it without disturbing them.

Hornborgasjön is on my to do list :-)

If you want to rent a hide you got to be quick when they open the

The booking opened in October last year, so I assume that's standard procedure:

For the pixel peepers

2011-04-28 Thread Larry Colen
I was trying out a lens test setup and ended up shooting the setup with almost 
all of my lenses in the 16-50mm range, with my zooms at each of the focal 
lengths: 20, 31, 40, 50,  55
Same lighting, same tripod  f/8 at 1/100, studio strobe

It turns out that at the sweet spot of the lens, it's really tough to tell one 
lens from another:

Mind you, I've tried to cull the less than wonderful lenses from my collection,

limitations of your gear in mind, then you can get great shots with almost any 
kit.

 I presently work with 2 catalogs. One for my personal work and one for
 my photo courses

 Now, my problem: I realized I imported files from my Courses catalog
 at the place I store my own files (lets call it Personal catalog). ...

 I'm not entirely sure I understand. Is this the situation?

 - You have two catalogs intended for different purposes, Personal and 
 Courses.
 - You do not want the image files to be included in both catalogs.
 - When you import with each catalog, you want LR to move your image
 files into different file system locations to keep them separated.

 Yes, sir.

 - When you imported files into your Courses catalog, you inadvertently
 set LR to place the files in the file system location normally used
 for your Personal files.

 It may be. Actually, looking at the rest of your post, I see that is
 most probably the problem.
 I, indeed, broke myself the thing.

 I do not want to mix files, deleting a file when it is also present in
 the second catalog will create a big mess and since LR can't open both
 catalog at the same time... can't do another way.

 Did I messed things up? Or did LR? I'm under the impression that LR
 keeps the last import settings in memory but do NOT it does so in
 relation to what catalog is opened. Which means, if I'm no cautious
 enough, things gets mixed (and messed up). Is it so ?

 The worst thing that can happen if you delete files from one catalog
 (and delete or move them around in the file system) is that the same
 image files also present in the other catalog will come up with
 question marks saying that Lightroom can't find them. All you have to
 do is tell the catalog with the question marks to synchronize with the
 file system and remove missing files.

 Yep, indeed, that what happended (followed by a loud S**T) ;)
 But I copied back the files where I intended them to be otherwise it
 becomes a big mess.


 Similarly, once you put the files into the right locations for the
 other catalog, either re-import them or synchronize existing folders
 into which they've been placed.

 Will do, thanks.

 Lightroom remembers import settings on a per catalog basis
 automatically, but the sensible and safe thing to do if you want LR to
 move files into separate locations in two different catalogs/import
 scenarios is to define two import presets, one for each catalog, and
 remember to choose the correct one when doing your imports.

 That, I was unsure about. Thank you for pointing it out and more
 thanks because I never thought about the import presets.
 To me it was more like doing a couple adjustments/conversions at
 import time which I didn't want to.

 I have about four different import scenarios articulating in what
 destinations in the file system I want imports to place the files, so
 I have a preset set up for each of them.

 Will certainly do as well now. Thank you much Godfrey :)

PESO- Experimenting with the SMC Pentax 1:1.4/50

Well when I got in this evening I cleaned off the filter that was on the
lens and cleaned the lens. Once I was done I placed the SMC Pentax 1:1.5/50
onto my K-R. Will say I am rather pleased how well the K-R interacts with
the lens but I am still figuring out how to properly use the lens with my
camera so the following photos are not the greatest. 

I am just linking to the set as there is only four photos in the set.

Will probably play around with the other two lenses a bit on down the road.

_IGP2972 is very nice - I like the soft background.

As the SMC 1.4 50 doesn't have an 'A' setting on the aperture ring,
you'll need to use the green button method:

* Set the camera to manual
* Set the aperture that you want
* Press the green button and the camera will set the appropriate shutter
speed.  If you want exposure compensation, set  a higher or lower
shutter speed manually.
