<0> yesh
<1> normally I avoid sharpening filters at all costs.
<2> don't forget all the sharpening
<3> sharpening doens't work.
<1> although I do need to learn to use Unsharpen Mask a bit better.
<0> contrast/brightness too
<2> cuz i don't think any of us can, now
<3> CTRL+SHIFT+L
<0> and curves is your daddy
<1> I use curves all the time.
<1> but sometimes its not enough
<3> i don't know anything about photo editing.
<0> i mix it up
<1> actually, I use Levels.
<0> histogram
<3> i had to google how to erase red eye
<1> yeah, Levels.
<3> my camera has builtin histogram
<3> it helps me tune levels
<0> peerce: answer the witch
<1> I just punch the redeye with a faded black blotch :D
<0> dancinenglish: http://www.hogranch.com/CoolPix/21Apr01/DSCN8257.JPG and http://hogranch.com/files/Bitmaps/SanFran-from-MtTam.jpg appear to be taken from the same location: Mt Tamalpailas
<3> i used the blur or whatever submenu'd toolo
<1> I de-zitted a kit tonoite. looks pretty good printed.
<1> ok, original -> http://troop604.org/Photos/2005-05-22-EagleCourt/2/40960026.JPG (this is a photoCD from film, btw)
<2> http://www.offsitebackups.net/stuff/P1210806.JPG
<2> sacramento at night
<1> doctored for printing 5x7" http://hogranch.com/files/Bitmaps/test.jpg
<2> that's taken with a VERY steady hand
<2> no tripod
<2> with 35-50mph winds
<2> on top of a tower
<1> I love my EOS Rebel XT... can get good pictures at ISO1600 :D
<2> i had to take about 10
<2> before i got one that wasn't too bad
<2> eh, this was a cam i got the wife a couple years back for our anniversary
<2> wasn't the greatest, but does a decent enough job
<3> hey peerafk what's the deal with the background on that photo
<3> looks all primed and ready for a scrapbook page.
<3> but there's some shading on his sash
<1> sartan; on the 'test.jpg' ? you betcha. i cut him out and flattened the background, this is getting printed and framed for a District Council office 'hall of eagles' (eagle scouts)
<3> peerafk: i don't know if this picture was taken in the forest and some artistic effects were done to the background - but the shadow looks like it was a wall painting
<1> I know looks like *** on the screen, but printed 5x7, it looks great.
<1> it was taken in the forest and the background was DARK
<1> original -> http://troop604.org/Photos/2005-05-22-EagleCourt/2/40960026.JPG
<4> ARGH! BLUR FILTER, BLUR FILTER!
<4> (kidding.)
<4> (maybe)
<1> actually, I fixed his zits with 'smudge' :D
<3> he
<3> he's proud
<4> i figured it may be better to put 3 metric tons of vaseline on the lens.
<1> I didn't remove them, I just kinda smudged them around
<3> can i fix mine with smudge too
<1> **** yeah, he made his Eagle when he was 16. most barely make it before they turn 18 and are no longer eligable.
<4> i use the healing blush
<4> brush*
<4> or the clone blush, depending on what tool you use
<4> clone undamaged skin from around the area
<4> and POOF
<4> no more zits.
<1> yeah, I've used clone before.
<1> but smudge works too
<4> this being on the rare occasion that i get one, and i still do
<4> peerafk: but it damages the picture
<4> if i look at a picture i can say "smudge tool"
<4> a properly done heal tool is undetectable =]
<1> i didn't wanna take ALL of them away
<1> just reduce the effect
<4> he's 16. i guess i can forgive him for having zits.
<3> i'm 81 years old and I Can still dance the polka
<4> lord knows i had some nasty ones when i was 16. still have them, and i'm through puberty. i mean wtf.
<1> I did **** up on the cut over the right shoulder
<1> but that dark stripe is totally not obvious on the print, so **** it
<3> i break out on the jawbone sides of my chin. shaving always and continually irritates my skin there and there is fat **** all i can do about it
<5> is there a way to simulate a middle mouse button on a laptop touchpad that does not have such a button?
<1> most of the kids in other troops ar elucky if the picture was taken with a olympus 35mm P&S cam
<3> left and right click at once WornOut
<1> and 1-hour printing
<4> i get broken out from shaving as well
<4> but i get it on my upper lip
<4> also where my soul patch used to be
<3> i wish i had a 35mm camer.a
<4> i wish i had a camera better than the chinzy one on my cellphone.
<4> <3 being poor
<4> but i DO have a fingerprint scanner for my computer. new toys ftw.
<1> my cell phone is a telephone. it has no camera
<4> peerafk: this phone was free with my tradeup
<4> i've only used the camera 3 or 4 times
<6> i use the camera in my telephone for taking piuctures of price tags at stores
<6> then i can come home and price compare models
<6> or for dumb ****
<1> my cameras include several 35mm SLRs which I never use anymore, a 2-1/4" SLR I hardly never use, a Canon EOS RebelXT digital SLR, a Canon S70 digital point-n-shoot.
<6> like getting the measurments off my air filters
<2> the only time i used a camera on a mobile was when this one swedish girl let me take ap icture of her, so she could send it to me when she got back home to uppsala :(
<1> oh, and I guess we have some 35mm P&S cams somewhere we never use anymore. an Olympus XA, that was a sweet camera
<1> manual wind and focus, fixed 35mm lens that was sharp as a tack
<3> i've had my eye on a 26.6mm converter.
<1> I have my eye on a 17-85mm zoom, and a 200mm f/2.8 L series non-zoom
<4> are
<4> er
<4> Aurelius
<2> yes?
<4> was she naked?
<2> no :(
<4> wtf do you care then
<2> but she was sitll hot hehe
<4> i hope you deleted that ****
<3> '38-114mm' equivilant lens
<2> i think i did, but it's probably still in my email
<3> finding more and more use for a smaller size.
<4> i am going to take a trip to the lindt store tommorow
<4> so i can get laid.
<1> oh, or maybe the new EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM
<1> that would be a sweet lens.
<3> attachment for your olympus?
<1> thats 26-80mm equiv, or so, but very flast
<3> fast
<1> fawk no. EF-S zoom lens for my Canon digital SLR
<3> i wish i could figure out how to get the manual focus out of my camera
<1> EF are canon's EOS autofocus lenses
<1> its easy on a EOS :D switch off autofocus, and its manual. turn th efocus wheel on the lens
<3> 'ttl autofocus' which is what i'm using, 9 point AiAF - which i want to use sometime, and manual focus
<3> macro mode doens't count
<1> or, half press the button and it pre-focuses, then you can tweak it manually and finish the press to take the picture
<3> hm
<3> big gripe though is that there is no chain pull or whichever for the button
<1> not all canon EF lenses do that, but the good ones do
<3> so when i'm zoomed way in on a macro mode - even with my tripod, my finger press ****s the shot up
<1> oh, and EOS USM lenses autofocus faster than you can say tick.
<4> sartan
<4> stop taking pictures of your manhood
<3> hh
<3> hey thats cool
<3> manual focus.. i did some trick with the button and now the middle of the screen shows my focus point
<1> now, THIS is macro... http://www.hogranch.com/CoolPix/08Mar00/DSCN3677.JPG
<1> that was my old CoolPix 950, its built in lens had a awesome macro mode
<1> handheld even
<1> or http://www.hogranch.com/CoolPix/14Sep99/DSCN0891.JPG
<3> ic an't get my camera to 'tune' closer than 21cm
<3> i don't know if i'm doing this 100%
<7> Hmmm, if I remember right, the 950 lacks the IR filter ... so it can be easily modified to do IR BW
<1> sartan; the RebelXT, the viewfinder is optical, so you can actually SEE your focus... but in autofocus mode, there are 5 targets, and if its in full automode, it will light up whichever ones it thinks it shoudl focus on
<3> yeah i can see my focus too
<1> Hawkeye; 950 is ancient. didn't do so well at low light, also didn't have a removable lense at all
<3> it has the full shot
<3> but in the middle it has anotehr 'window' of the focal point
