    DPReview

    Is being closed down by Amazon, as part of their lay-offs... We might see a slight increase in new folks as all their forums closed down and those folks look for a new place to go...

    EXIF Info

    There seems to be several instances of EXIF Viewer info in different threads, so I thought I'd start one for this singular subject. Obviously, EXIF info for photos isn't supported in the new forum software, which is problematic for a Photography community... The logical solution is adding an...

    Contributor link

    I give up. Where is it? I thought I saw floating at the top as a banner but now that I thought about Contributing again, I can’t find it…

    Date sorting threads

    New software looks good... one serious issue is threads are sorted in Date Ascending order... Threads that are several years old will be difficult to navigate because you'll need to navigate to the last page and then scroll down from there....... There was a user option to reverse that so the...

    DXO Nik Tools and M1 Macs

    Just a heads up... I've been working/battling(?) with DXO regarding The Nik Tools vers. 4 (some tools) NOT working with the new Mac M1 computers... They conclude it won't work, and they don't intend to fix it at this point. There is a way to get them to work using Rosetta (which is a built in...

    Post your Double Exposure Shots

    I didn't see a general "Double Exposure" thread so am posting these here. It would be nice to see a Double Exposure section. Double exposures have gone from an old film "mistake" to an art form. Let see yours!!!

    Lens Fine-adjustments

    I recently bought a new D810. Upgrade for my D600... Of course, my first order of business has been fine-tuning-adjusting all my lenses to the new body. I've been using Reiken's Focal... <-- I'm old, and half blind so really rely on the camera and the computer to hit that focus point... I can...

    Just curious...

    Why am I seeing big honkin' ads that pop up on the right half of my screen? Do I need to take this site off my Ad blocker's White list...

    Where do unregistered posts go?

    I get the forum's subscription emails sent to me. They get distributed to all my devices. I rarely login here with my tablets/phones because the layout is horrendous. Anyway.... Last night, I get one... and I click the embedded link to respond to a user's question... and type an answer... I...

    Flash Triggers that do it all

    First... I apologize because I haven't really focused on which triggers do what, because I had a cheap pair that sorta worked. Well, now it sort doesn't work after many years... I have been a fan of Nikon's CLS, except for its line-of-sight limitation. I have Nikon speedlites, SB-600 and...

    Looking for specific software

    I use LR almost exclusively as my front-end. IOW, I launch from LR to plugin's and other addin software. I recently did some housekeeping, and NOW can't find what I'm looking for. I had an editing program... It allowed to you create/add a light source (sunlight/window light) from anywhere on...

    I'm on a Quest for printer paper

    I didn't see a proper section for this... actually, it might fit in 10 different sections... Oh well!! It's here. I have a wide carriage printer... My quest is to seek a source for 8x12 photo papers in various finishes... 8X12 is perfect for the 35mm sensor, but apparently not the printer...

    Film to digital

    Film dudes, and dudettes... I've been going back to film... and I have a few questions about what other film shooters are doing to get to digital. Obviously processing and scanning to CD services are still with us, as is the expensive part, printing... I'm inclined to have the film...

    Dealer brag

    Can I brag about a dealer? In April of this year, I bought a used D300 (body only) from Roberts Camera's eBay site. They give a 6 month warranty. A week ago, I noticed the On/off switch wouldn't go OFF, without some fiddling... Several on/offs and it seemed to be okay... Today, the front...
