Portfolio Presentation?
Hi, I have to put together a folio of around 12-15 images, the prints will be 8x10s, i've got that far! But now my next hurdle is how to display them, so i'm after assistance from the group! My current thought process is to make them into some sort of book (spiral bound). With all the images mounted in black card (12" square?) and the mounts used as the book pages,. I though i'd make the pages square so that it would allow for some shots to be horizontal and some vertical. (i'm just throwing ideas out here). Any ideas greatly appreciated? Thanks, Paul Jones

Re: Presentation
Welcome Ronaldo! One of the best things about shooting with Pentax is all of the excellent older lenses that you can use easily on it. With the Pentax in-body image stabilization, all of those older lenses become even more useful than they were originally! Looking forward to seeing examples of your work!

Every camera system has its advantages and disadvantages. Most of the members here have chosen to use Pentax gear, but most are also interested in and familiar with other camera systems.

Re: PK20D presentation
I was pretty meh about the new camera but that presentation was very appealing. I' kinda want one now. Not that I'm going to get one. I'll probably have to wait until the K40 or 50D to justify a new camera. He didn't mention the 20FPS burst mode either... hmmm. Honestly, I'd like a much better noise situation with the high ISO shooting in the K10 (the *istD was better here) but other than that, the K10 is great for me so far.

Re: PK20D presentation
Finally got my speaker to work on the PC to listen to the presentation. Impressive. I like several features, the various modes adjustments, like Portrait, bright etc, IR filter, and the extra features of the Raw button, plus live view might have some use. One caution, i used the Vivid mode on the D200 a few times and you have to watch what your shooting. It was good on a bright day, but slight overcast made the shots look a bit weird. However that may have been because i only had A channel firmware upgraded, and not B channel. Not sure if that makes a difference in picture quality or not. No one at Nikond1 dot net knew for sure.

Re: PK20D presentation
It's hard to objectively justify the added cost of the K20D over the K10D. I have a K10D but the added features of the K20D sure are attractive. The biggest single plus is probably the increased file size, allowing bigger print size without loss of quality. But the other new features sure are pulling @ my wallet.

Re: PK20D presentation
I can't afford it at the moment. To much going on it the lens department. I have already bought a 50-135 and a 18-250. I can also see myself with a 16-50. And more temptations to come. So I'll wait and see what happenes with price. The higher ISO is what really makes me temped. Could become very usefull with my long lenses. I also see the benefit of Live View when it comes to focusing long MF lenses. The most sensible thing would probably be to disconnect myself from internet. Pretend there is no new camera.

[OT] Mamiya ZD presentation
Today, thanks to the biggest Polish photo portal I had an opportunity to be on official Polish presentation of Mamiya ZD - for these who are not aware - 22 megapixel medium format DSLR ;-) The camera appeared to be a very interesting tool for professional photographers (with its price around 1 Euros it won't rather find place among amateurs ;-) The body had some nice features like dual card slots (CF and SD), had good ergonomics, felt very nice in hand especially that it is around size and weight of Pentax 645 - this means around size and weigth of hi-end 35 mm bodies. Just LCD was far too small for today's standards - only 1.8". With camera there was presented Mac software for it, enabling "tethered shooting" (taking photographs and sending them directly to computer) among other interesting features. ZD 120/4 macro lens was mounted on ZD, and while it was top performing glass 9See samples below), I was less than impressed by its build quality - one class lower than Pentax FA645 120/4 macro. During presentation visitors had an opportunity to try the camera themselves. You could take either macro photos of car model or do some portraits of model. Fortunately I had my SD card with me so I gave ZD a try taking shots of beautiful model. Photos were saved as RAWs (MEF format - each file around 35 MB), then converted to .DNG and slightly edited in Lightroom to be finally exported as high quality JPEGs. If you are interested in how good can look photos from 22 MPix MF DSLR you can download them from my page. I put two samples with low-res previews as target linked photos are ~4 MB each compressed (61 MB after decompression) so it is better to save them to your local disk and open in your favourite photo editing application. Colour space of target photos is Adobe RGB. Here they are: http://nasdwoje.e9.pl/pictures/MamiyaZD.html Of cource for hardcore lovers - I can send RAWs straigth from the camera ;-) Now let's wait for presentation and samples from Pentax 645D. I bet it can be even more impressive machine than ZD ;-) Cheers, Sylwek

Hi Tom, Thanks for the link they look perfect! and i will be showing it to a number of people so it would be better if they could pass the images around.

Message text written by INTERNET:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >I just have to work out how deep i need the box to be, i'm guessing 1inch deep, 2 might be over kill. Thanks, Paul< i use mat board and it's thick material. 1 inch may not be quite enough if you also have laminated tear sheets. Herb
Also testing new presentation mechanism...
For a long time I've been wanting to add the dimensionality of music to my photo presentations. I decided to try an application that generates slide shows integrated with sound, and is very very fast to set up. The resulting output seems fast in a browser and plays well. I put together one presentation with my PAW 2005 gallery images. If you want to give it a try and give me some feedback, take a look at http://www.gdgphoto.com/PAW2005/ It does use Flash, but hopefully you'll find it tasteful. thanks in advance Godfrey

Godders - love the idea but the mixes (dissolves) between shots are far too fast! I don't mind you cramming as many shots as you can into a presentation, but as a bare minimum, I would say 4 seconds, and it varies with different pictures - some I would give 3 times that. Note that music, although complimentary, is another stimulus for the senses, and makes things go seemingly quicker. Try a presentation with/without music to compare relative 'speeds'. You may also find that when putting images (still or otherwise) to music, there is no formula. It has to come from the heart - the transition of image with music has to 'feel' right. That's the golden rule with these things - if it feels right, it *is* right :-) I once edited a series of 4 minute news items on a UK picture agency (Popperfoto) that included many stills images and editing them to music was one of the hardest, yet one of the most rewarding things I've ever done.

Godfrey, it's wonderful! I agree with Cotty though, just as I begin to "get into" one of the photos, it quickly disolves to the next. I feel myself rushing to see the pic before it's gone, which doesn't quite fit with the lovely Counting Crows tune. Keep at it, it's a great start.

From: Shel Belinkoff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Doesn't work for me. Sound sputters, screen shows a couple-three pics than remains black. Oh well ... maybe it's not dial-up friendly. Yes, it requires broadband bandwidth. I haven't found anything that does a decent job of presenting AV with a dialup connection, at least not without hanging around for a very long time waiting for the data to download. This is a "small" photo presentation and constitutes about 7Mbytes of compressed images and sound. It's not a replacement for a still image web gallery.

Is it you playing and singing? Thanks Jens. LOL ... That's certainly not *ME* singing and playing. This test isn't going to up for long. I'm unsure of the details as yet, but for anything that I'm going to put up as part of my work I'll have to make the judgement as to whether it constitutes Fair Use or otherwise requires a contract for permissions. I've skimmed this and found it reasonably useful as a starting point: http://www.lib.utsystem.edu/copyright/index.html From: Cotty <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Godders - love the idea but the mixes (dissolves) between shots are far too fast! ...

I once edited a series of 4 minute news items on a UK picture agency (Popperfoto) that included many stills images and editing them to music was one of the hardest, yet one of the most rewarding things I've ever done. I agree completely and thank you for the comments! This particular presentation was simply a test-demo to see how the generator worked: I grabbed my entire PAW 2005 image gallery, added leader and trailer image pages, and integrated it with "Colorblind" with no other editing ... mostly I was looking to see how it played for others. The software (SoundSlides) allows varying the timing for each frame to coordinate with the music or with a custom audio track, which is really what I plan to do with this idea. My brother's in music production so we might collaborate on these things at some point. From: Rob Studdert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Seems to work quite well however the track (naturally) has a fairly obvious left channel bias (piano) which was a little off-putting initially, I don't know if altering the channel balance would be viable but for anyone who's not familiar with the track it's a bit strange. Also the musical attribution should read "Counting Crows". Thanks for the correction. I'll likely not bother to correct it as I don't think I'll have this one up there for more than today. It's served the purpose of my test. :-) From: Don Sanderson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Godfrey, it's wonderful!

Re: Also testing new presentation mechanism...
Excellent. The music is perfect. Some of the transitions in the first half dozen shots were a bit uneven and some of the pics seemed to switch off quicker than others. Could be this computer. I watched it on my G3 700 laptop. Safari browser. Very, very nice. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

It's really a beautiful show - portraying poeple, events and an environment in catching and caring way.

Thanks, Godfrey. I'm not making a mountain out of anything. It's just that rights are rights. And musicians (I was once one myself) should be able to actually make a living, just like photographers :-) The reason I was asking was actually that I have often wondered how to do this right.

I could only display this privately, since I didn't think I'd have enough money to pay Mr. McCartney and Apple Records etc. I have been thinking of making musik myself (MIDI files, which would have to be converted into MP3 files or similar.

Sometimes rights are released with very little other than an attribution if the thing you want to do with the music is a) not going to be particularly profitable, b) will show the music in a good light, c) does not conflict with other public uses of the music, and d) you manage to contact the right person who wants to be helpful.

Which software are you using - it's seems like Macromedia? The software I used to create this presentation is SoundSlides, http://www.soundslides.com/. It's a Mac OS X application that takes a folder of JPEG files and an MP3 or AIFF file and integrates them together. It has tools for controlling the pacing of the presentation and some basic capabilities to change the playing look. It generates a Flash compatible presentation. I've done this using iMovie and iTunes, built DVDs using iDVD (all part of iLife) but it's more time consuming to build what I want than SoundSlides. Godfrey

Of course, once all the data and images are downloaded, you can grab the slider and just click through the images at will, without the music playing. It seems that the application opens all toolbars in Netscape. Maybe something to do with defining screen size? Have no idea. I don't have Netscape installed (would be the Mac OS X version if I did). I don't think it does anything like defining screen size. It's an embedded object in a browser window that calls the Flash player, and is designed to be integrated into web pages non- destructively.

Nice song - especially for the B&W photos. I, too, wish that the photos would linger a little longer sometimes. Hard to do that and have the music last long enough, though!

Re: Also testing new presentation mechanism...
Godfrey, Interesting how the music completely changes the way I perceive some of the photos. It's rather melancholy music, and some of the photos I had perceived as contented and peaceful (people basking in the sun, for example) conveyed loneliness instead when viewed with the music, for example. Personally, I prefer having the photos by themselves.

The simple fact that I get to hit the "play" button myself to start the music and images is, I think, what makes me not recoil from this like most other musical websites. Thank you! Yes. I especially hate it when just opening a page blasts music which is too loud to begin with at me. That's why I set it NOT to auto- start and put the note in the web page that you should check your sound volume before starting. :-) Nice song - especially for the B&W photos. I, too, wish that the photos would linger a little longer sometimes. Hard to do that and have the music last long enough, though! I can see several ways to improve things to fit the duration of a song better. If you have a large presentation like this one, the most obvious thing to do would be to either combine several pieces of music into the audio. Another thought would be to combine some images together and present them as a pair. I'll be working on several of these ideas.. :-) What did you use to assemble this, if you don't mind my asking? (or have you told us already and I wasn't paying attention?) I mentioned it before: "SoundSlides" is the generating application. It's very reasonably priced and very simple to use. See details at: http://www.soundslides.com I believe it is only available for Mac OS X. Godfrey
Re: Also testing new presentation mechanism...
Thanks for your comment, Rick. I know what you mean. An AV presentation is much "hotter" than a show of still images without audio or timed presentation, and affects perception a lot more intensely. On the one hand, the artist presenting the AV presentation can deliver more of what his/her intent is, but on the other hand, the 'cooler' presentation gives more control to the viewer. I see them as two different things, complementary to each other. One does not obviate the other. :-) Something that I'm not sure anyone got reviewing the responses is the fact that once the download has fully completed, you don't have to press the play button. You can grab the slider and just walk through the images at your own pace, without audio accompaniment. If I put different captions in each image file, you can look at the specific captions and attributions that way too. I suspect that I'll have to add that as a note to the user when I do some finished work with this presentation engine. best Godfrey On Feb 21, 2006, at 7:14 AM, Rick Womer wrote: Godfrey, Interesting how the music completely changes the way I perceive some of the photos.

Sometimes rights are released with very little other than an attribution if the thing you want to do with the music is a) not going to be particularly profitable, b) will show the music in a good light, c) does not conflict with other public uses of the music, and d) you manage to contact the right person who wants to be helpful. > I have been thinking of making musik myself (MIDI files, which > would have > to be converted into MP3 files or similar. Do you know how to do this? I'm no musician. If I have to make music from MIDI and turn it into MP3, I'll call my brother! Otherwise, I'd use GarageBand, which comes with Apple systems as part of the iLife package. > Which software are you using - it's seems like Macromedia? The software I used to create this presentation is SoundSlides, http://www.soundslides.com/. It's a Mac OS X application that takes a folder of JPEG files and an MP3 or AIFF file and integrates them together. It has tools for controlling the pacing of the presentation and some basic capabilities to change the playing look. It generates a Flash compatible presentation. I've done this using iMovie and iTunes, built DVDs using iDVD (all part of iLife) but it's more time consuming to build what I want than SoundSlides.

Re: Also testing new presentation mechanism...
Hi! For a long time I've been wanting to add the dimensionality of music to my photo presentations. I decided to try an application that generates slide shows integrated with sound, and is very very fast to set up. The resulting output seems fast in a browser and plays well. I put together one presentation with my PAW 2005 gallery images.

Godfrey, I find it tasteful though the speed with which it pages through the images is slightly too fast for my perception. Boris

The page is simple but efficient, the beauty of your photos match with the music you have chosen. The only thing that could be changed is time between photos perhaps one or one and a half second more, because they deserve to be looked at. Thanks for letting us know. Manuel

Well, I know he uses Mac OS X and Pro Tools to do his work... I'll ask what else. Jens, I talked to my brother this evening. Regards getting MP3 from MIDI, keep in mind the basic concept: MIDI == instructions MP3 == compressed sound So you need to have some way to "play" your instructions to a device such that the device renders the sound which can then be rolled into an MPEG-3 codec for compression. He uses Pro Tools, Logic, and several other sound programs to do his work in mixing and rendering sound for various targets. He said, for casual use, GarageBand on Mac OS X is probably the way to go. One notch above that is Logic Express for those who are doing more sophisticated sound work. I also asked him about the rights to the music I want to embed in photographic presentations. He said, simply, "Call the Harry Fox Agency in New York. They run virtually the entire business of music rights and releases in the United States and probably a good bit of the rest of the world. They'll give you the whole scoop on what is or isn't a Fair Use situation, and whether a release to use a particular piece of music can be had for peanuts or diamonds. Godfrey

Re: A small presentation, comments welcome!
Hi Cory, Thanks for being the first to review them! I myself would be quite hard-pressed to find a favourite photo or type, there was just so many things to shoot! I'm relooking at what I put up, and flavour of the moment is 00990023.jpg (an action shot), just because I don't usually shoot action scenes. I must add that the children were great to work with as well, eager and not as camera shy as so many kids tend to be. The kid in the last pic 0137.jpg particularly was a little joy. She posed quite happily and asked if she'll could see the pics when I was done, and now I have to make sure she gets a print of the shot she posed for.. About modern life in the background, yes, that was a drag. I passed on a few shots because the cars would just show up too obviously. However, this wasn't a major gathering, just a tourney, so the location wasn't special. I missed something major the day before, where there was a coronation, and that would have been great to shoot. The one -really- to be at though, is Rowany Festival, held every easter: http://www.sca.org.au/mailman/listinfo/festival and that's in the woods somewhere. :) Ryan - Original Message - From: "cbwaters" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, July 06, 2004 11:06 PM Subject: Re: A small presentation, comments welcome! > Ryan, > Some interesting photos there.

Lots o very nice shots - and some really great ones as well. Looks like you all had a very nice day to remember.

Re: A small presentation, comments welcome!
Actually it wasn't that much work, the images were straight back from the lab, and the gallery was generated by PSCS. The real downside is paying for the development and scanning while thinking at the back of my mind it would't be practically free if I had an istD! Although, you do remind me that I need to fix up some of the shots, mainly contrast masking for shadowed faces. Thanks for looking through them Jens :) Cheers, Ryan PS.
