  • Aperture 4 would have run great on this  :  (
  • That's crazy.  Not saying I'm doubting you, just that it's so weird to think that LR and Aperture have to reverse engineer, with all its inherent foibles, just in order to make the very core...
  • Lacie takes a potentially very fast enclosure, the 1TB USB 3.0/Thunderbolt External, and sticks in a slow 5400 RPM drive, pretty much negating the benefit of spending more for such an...
  • The reason raindances work is because they don't stop dancing until it rains.
  • Microsoft makes most of their OS money (aside from updates) by licensing Windows to be pre-installed on PCs manufactured by hardware makers not from people who have a computer and need to install...
  • Because there's no money in it.
  • It depends on who's hosting the video.  If it's youtube or a place like it it's easy to download as flash or convert to anything on the fly.  If it's a site that specifically doesn't want you to...
  • Obviously it's not 5 times the sharpening, as the max doesn't seem as outlandish as that.  Having worked with it it 'seems' to be slightly increased at maximum setting with finer control between....
  • Trying to find info on exactly how the 3.4.4 new sharpen slider, which now goes from 0 to 5, defaulting on 1, is relative to the previous behavior, which was something like 0 to 1 with a .5...
  • Hi Mike and Russell, Thanks for those links.  You both posted as I was struggling to compose my thoughts in mine  :  ) Currently the Fotodiox is more than I was hoping to spend so I want to...
  • Hi Larry,   It's really just to have another tool.   I do mostly performance shooting and often get informal portraits of the performers in backstage areas where the light is terrible.  I do use an...
  • I know there's a lighting forum but since it's to fit a K5 there are a lot of models out there that won't fit the bill (or camera).   Besides, I take a Pentax shooter's word much better  :...
  • The only reason to get involved with FCE now is if everything you need from it is there now and you can hang on to the computer that you'll be running it on, and it won't cost hardly anything to do...
  • I really don't want any amazing anythings.  I do have some things I've love to see from Apple, but if what's coming is amazing then it's not what I was thinking about.
  • When I moved the migrated the user and apps from a 2008 MBP with 10.6.8 to a late 2011 MBP with 10.7.5 last year everything worked fine except every Apple Pro App authorization (including Aperture)...
  • JohnJ John, yes, sorry.  Wasn't meant to be a reply to a specific post, just a general addition, so I hit the last button to just tack it on, but that was an error. Sorry for the confusion  :  ) v
  • As soon as people start yapping about the cult of Mac fanboys, it only shows how closed off they are to be so negatively affected by Apple preferrers that this becomes the focal point of their...
  • A better way to put it, I think (speaking only of laptops and desktops, which is the topic here) would be that Apple creates and administers the OS for their computers.  They also market much...
  • It basically comes down to a handful of things that have nothing to do with image quality.  If you like the Apple ecosystem, which is to say when you have Apple hardware there are certain paths,...
  • This was in the other thread about Aperture brush general usage, but I felt it deserved its own thread so that it won't fly under the radar of interested users. Marco S Hyman brought this to my...
