Leica Guy Posted July 29, 2018 Share #1021 Posted July 29, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) Whoa Demitris! I did not know that. Dang. I’m so ignorant sometimes and I actually do try very hard. Thank you my friend. That will help me a lot. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bags27 Posted July 29, 2018 Share #1022 Posted July 29, 2018 (edited) color me just as grateful for the focusing tip. Even though I looked at all the Photoshop tools, and couldn't find the grateful tool, I colored myself that anyway. Two additional points from trying this: 1. the down arrow de-zooms the screen 2. using "white" for peak focusing is really effective in macro, since "white" is not a color but rather it vibrates the picture. it really makes peak focusing dead-on Edited July 29, 2018 by bags27 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighlandK Posted July 29, 2018 Share #1023 Posted July 29, 2018 (edited) Thanks guys. These tips (plus cataract op!) really transform the Q in manual focus macro mode. Edited July 29, 2018 by HighlandK Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leica Guy Posted July 29, 2018 Share #1029 Posted July 29, 2018 Okay Demitris. I have a new word to describe your macro photos. They are “Wicked” good! I enjoy everyone. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
onca Posted July 29, 2018 Share #1030 Posted July 29, 2018 (edited) They are “Wicked” good! Well, if you go so far, we allready could give Dimitris the Nickname: Merlin Edited July 29, 2018 by blackjag 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leica Guy Posted July 29, 2018 Share #1031 Posted July 29, 2018 Well, if you go so far, we allready could give Dimitris the Nickname: Merlin Oh I like it. Don’t know if Demitris would. He’ll have a vote. Maybe. :-) 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’ll have a vote. Maybe. :-) Haha, thank you for the kind comments guys!! I really don't mind whatever you call me (as long you don't call me an @$£%^! or whatever!) By the way, the Adafruit neo pixel ring arrived and it works great. I will use it as the first step for prototyping my ring flash idea. It seems it is quite a popular cheap way for ring light. https://learn.adafruit.com/3d-printed-camera-led-ring Edited July 29, 2018 by zampelis 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
onca Posted July 29, 2018 Share #1033 Posted July 29, 2018 Oh I like it. Don’t know if Demitris would. He’ll have a vote. Maybe. :-) It´s this, what i mean: "Merlin (Welsh: Myrddin) is a legendary figure best known as the wizard featured in (...) Welsh Poetry" Because zampelis Pictures are more than just Photos. For sure they are visual Poetry... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leica Guy Posted July 30, 2018 Share #1034 Posted July 30, 2018 Merlin it is!!! Demitris you now have an alias for the Q forum. You deserve it after posting so many fantastic photos. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bags27 Posted July 31, 2018 Share #1035 Posted July 31, 2018 I find it utterly pretentious for the film "purists", on one point to reject post editing techniques and on the other point to willingly use any type of film they like from their big arsenal in order to alter the colours to the way they like, depending on the occasion. This is always a discussion worth having. Until a few years ago, I resisted post-processing, but then I conceded that, it's not just choice of film, but all the tricks in developing and printing that evolved over the century when film was king that made it a lot closer to digital post-processing. And, of course, now that film is digitized and can even be rendered in massive TIFF files, there's very little difference in technology. I'm sure it would be quite easy to chose one of the film presets in post-processing a photo from a digital camera and compare it to a photo from film that's been digitized and have them look fairy identical. I absolutely love the film thread on this site, and there are many photos there that maintain the "film look." But that's an aesthetic choice, not a moral one! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leica Guy Posted August 1, 2018 Share #1039 Posted August 1, 2018 Flowers today in Chatham, MA. Macro. It's especially tough getting super sharp photos out in the the wind. I took hundreds of shots to get a few that are decent. Welcome, dear visitor!
