For 3d and HD  video, you need  a monster cpu, great video card, a super goiod disk system and gobbs of RAM. I have an i7 3930 cpu (home build) and all 12 cores are usually maxed out when I am...

Frequent back ups will ensure the integrity of your data. There are only two types of photographers, those that have experienced catastrophic data loss and those who are about to. It's not about...

Simon, for the record, my post made no specific reference to Laura or her Team. The reason for my post was readily apparent. It was, sir, in regards to the "admin" of dpr choosing to send a pm to...

It is object oriented/vector, thus it does not allow for softly blended effects, so I am not sure that it will do what you are looking for. You posted no examples, just a vague reference to soda...

Hello Laura, welcome aboard, So I take it that if we say anything even slightly negative about gear shop or their practices on the forum that our posts will be deleted? Hardly seems like a fair...

I was offered a case of spam...admin flavor. I might have considered it, but it had a distinct double standard smell to it.

I run an i7 3820 and gtx 660ti, w/32gb and Samsung 830 ssd and for photo editing it's instantaneous for nearly all functions. Overkill actually. For 3d and HD video rendering it's still slow as...

The artcle states that , "Thousands of people are killed or injured every year by drivers who have not reached the legal standard for being drunk." Then it goes on to quote stats about the number...

The 18-250 should be a little better all the way around, except perhaps focus speed. Get the superzoom for daylight shooting and carry a fast zoom or prime for low light or critical sharpness.

Those of us that can afford the rent, use photoShop. Do a search to find out about the Adobe debacle. Any  editor with layers and alpha masking should do the trick. GIMP is free. Corel Photopaint...

No, I am not a flat earther. When considering most things on this earth that involve motion, that motion is most often best captured in horizontal format, we also see in horizontal format. While...

Compelling content can make up for poor production value, but first rate production quality will do little to help boring content. This is true of any creative endeavor, up to a point. The original...

I have a six core i7 (3930K), which also has 6 more virtual cores. While Adobe pShop will  access more than 2 cores, it seldom uses more than a fraction of my cpu power. Lightroom can be tricked...

Adobe has doubled their prices, what makes you think that they would settle for a plan that allows users to pay the old rates? In fact this is even cheaper, since you would be all updated at the...

1. Adobe's pricing is too high -- cost is about double, more if you skip versions
2. Having to repeatedly pay to retain access --
3. The need to occasionally connect to the Internet/Cloud
4....

Adobe is a monopoly and should have been split years ago. If the DOJ would have prevented the hostile take over of MacroMedia years ago, we wouldn't be in this mess.

We must use it in order to remain competitive. While it may feel good to not be affected while a corporation runs roughshod over others, it seems quite odd that one  would  want to gloat about it.
