Re: Disgustingly large GESO

OK, again with trepidation I share a revised version of the “disgustingly large GESO.” With trepidation because it is still disgustingly large, though hopefully not so disgustingly large as the first one. I beg forgiveness of my teachers who would have had it still much, much smaller.

Re: Cropping

Having started photographing with a camera with a single fixed and non-changable lens, I was forced to crop during printing (which I was doing myself). Then, when switched to slides (and a DSLR, albeit only with one "normal" prime), I've learned to frame for the ultimate presentation. Using

Re: interesting comparison someone sent me

Unless the camera is smart enough to turn the touch screen off when the camera is to your eye, it becomes a nose pointer, for the cameras AF point selection, and your nose doesn't know, what you want to focus on... On 1/24/2017 2:28 PM, Gonz wrote: It surprises me that the Canon does not

Re: interesting comparison someone sent me

I don't care for a touch screen either. Not on a camera. I think they are trying to bring the same usage model of a phone onto a camera, but they are not the same beast. On Wed, Jan 25, 2017 at 9:36 AM, Bruce Walker wrote: > I must check into those. Thanks, Zos. :) > >

It's a nice street shot, the figure provides a focal point. Hire a model to wear more traditional garb go and reshoot it and you'll really have something. On 1/25/2017 5:21 AM, Eric Weir wrote: On Jan 24, 2017, at 7:10 PM, Stan Halpin wrote: If there is

Re: interesting comparison someone sent me

My Leica SL has a touch screen. I find it occasionally useful, mostly when doing tabletop work and using autofocus. Actually, the Leica SL app on my iPad implements touch screen focus targeting and release ... That's a lot more useful as it can be significantly more precise than touching that

They make gloves that work with smart phones. I have a pair. It is cumbersome but better than freezing. On Wed, Jan 25, 2017 at 10:23 AM, Bruce Walker wrote: > Yeah. Ever pulled out a smartphone in the dead of winter when it's > -15C with a -25C windchill and tried to use

Re: interesting comparison someone sent me

Yeah. Ever pulled out a smartphone in the dead of winter when it's -15C with a -25C windchill and tried to use the touch screen? After you pull off your gloves and your fingers start to freeze you discover that dry skin fails to register. Give me buttons and dials. On Wed, Jan 25, 2017 at 10:04

The touch screen is not a really big selling point for me since I hate touch screens. On 1/24/2017 2:28 PM, Gonz wrote: It surprises me that the Canon does not have an articulating screen. Though it is a touch screen. http://cameradecision.com/compare/Pentax-K-1-vs-Canon-EOS-5D-Mark-IV --

That's a nice full frame shot, Eric.. But as there are so many good elements in that photo I could also get several pleasant crops out of it were I an editor and needed to have a photo in a certain aspect ratio... I read Stan's comment as a bit of a toungue in cheek admonishment. He has

I like this more each time I see it. It's being extremely sharp, even though I've only looked at it on my phone, is a large part of it's attraction. J Sent from my iPhone > On Jan 24, 2017, at 8:37 PM, P. J. Alling wrote: > > I have to admit I pushed the unsharp
