Very nice images of one of my favorite cities. For some reason, I
especially like the sea gull iage, and find it humorous in a strange way.

It looks just a titch dark on my screen, if I were processing it in

Re: OT ? more on the laptop

Actually I think the default naming convention is by color space.  sRGB 
is IGP while adobe RGB is _IGMP.  At least that's what the K20D does.  I 
just looked it up in the K-5II manual, and it also conforms to that pattern.

Nikon may use a similar scheme.

they're in camera JPEGs.

Re: OT: It rained!

I believe the latitudes between 25.5°N and 25.5°S are considered tropical, while 
latitudes between 25.5°N and 40°N (25.5°S - 40°S) are sub-tropical.


The closer you are to the coast of a large ocean the more the sub-tropical

Re: OT ? more on the laptop

[John]

It could be done in Adobe Bridge with batch renaming using string substitution.

First, copy all of the photos for your slideshow into a single folder. You'll 
need two string searches, one for the "_D72" and one for the "_IGP".


Have them both set to rename the photos to "Slideshow-" + "" starting with 
"0001". Run the two batches alternately.


You may have to manually increment the "" for the output name between 
batches so the Pentax ones don't duplicate the Nikon ones.


If it's going to conflict you'd likely end up with "Slideshow-0001" and 
"Slideshow-0001 (1)" because of how Bridge auto-resolves duplicate file names.


That should show up in the preview down at the bottom, so you'll know to 
manually increment the "".


Example:

Select however many of the Nikon photos you want to run in sequence ... say 10 
of them. Run the Nikon batch on the first 10 Nikon photos you want so you get 
"Slideshow-0001" thru "Slideshow-0010".


Then select your Pentax photos and run your Pentax batch, making sure the first 
number is going to be "Slideshow-0011".


I always set batch rename to retain the original file name in the EXIF, because 
that lets me figure out how I've screwed it up if I make a mistake.


There may be better ways to do this, but that's the best I can think of without 
going into the other room & actually firing up Adobe Bridge & try to merge file 
names from two different cameras into a single slide show.

First off thanks to all that had suggestions on my old macbook
purchase query. Some valid points made.

Friday oi attended the latest slideshow at our local seniors club, its
the first one i attended as i wanted to see the process as mine is
March 15th. The presenter was using her newish macbook and just ran
her slide show movie direct from iMovie via a projector and she has
some music. After reading the replies to my query i realized i could
probably do mine on my iPad mini 2. I keep forgetting i even have it
as i only use it when the grand-kids are over to play Mario cart. I
tested out my ipad on the projector and could get the slideshow
feature to work as well as just moving the photos by hand with a swipe
right.

So, problem 1 solved. Now problem two. I have two set of Newfoundland
photos, one from the Nikon and one form the Pentax, both have
different naming structures and file numbers. I would LOVE to have
these in some sort of order from both cameras and realize i would have
to do a lot of renaming,
Nikons are _D720250 etc
Pentax are _IGP9000 etc

I'm racking my brain trying to determine the best way to do this. The
reason for wanting them in orderish is that i took maybe 20 shots of
an item with Nikon and say 30 with the Pentax with its shorter lens so
i'd like to have everything flow nice. I used to have renamer for mac
but it does not work now with OS 10.11.6

Any ideas appreciated.

Dave

Aren't you comparing tropical rainfall with subtropical rainfall?

Almost half of Queensland lies north of the Tropic of Capricorn, as does where 
Alan lives.

It's been a bit wet here, I heard a couple of times about 5 inches (12 cm) on 
at least one of our recent days.

-33ºC this morning. It's been 3 weeks since this cold snap started. I
would love a rainstorm about now.

Does the term "SOL" ring a bell?

Steve,

Mark's job can be compared to that of a manicurist. Yours to removing the 
appendix. :-D

it was a simple matter to fix it. I just

And they used to crucify me over aperture levers.
