I’m with you, Marc. I bought a Xiaomi Mi A2 based on similar recommendations and I have to say that it’s not only the best phone I’ve ever owned it’s also the cheapest - and by some margin. I’ve...

I've tried Darktable many times - especially before the last time I updated Lightroom from version 5 to version 6 when I switched from PC to Mac. There was no way Darkroom was quicker or as...

I like the first one, it’s an imaginative use of “painting with light” (a very old technique) using a drone as the torch-wielding assistant. Nice.

The others... well, not so much.

I simply answered your question “What will you do when your camera or lens is not supported anymore?”. What *you* do is entirely up to you.

Perhaps I wasn’t clear: you convert to DNG before importing into LR using the free converter which is always up to date.

Until very recently I was still using LR 5.7 - and none of my exising...

My map module works perfectly (I use it a lot) and DNG is the answer to non-supported future cameras. Lens profiles are easy to make using the free Adobe tool that they probably use in-house to...

The same defaults apply to all versions of LR Jeff,, but as you yourself point out the default locations can also be changed to anything you want. CC may require a certain structure for sync...

Absolutely right. It irritates me every time I read this misinformation about Lightroom, often from sources like DPR that should know better.

I had my own file naming and storage hierarchy from...

User bios... hmm, I first read it with the "BIOS" acronym meaning (age showing). Made no sense... or maybe it's for all the bots using it ;-)

"if one relies on commercial printing and/or pre-made frames"... or indeed cropping to fit any fixed display, like a computer screen for example which could be 5:4. 4:3, 16:10, 16:9,...

I don't...

List it on ebay, it would take “taking the p*ss” to a new level... complete with an unusual odour.

Update: while there is no option to disable the GPU (as there is in Adobe products) there is an option to switch from the default "Automatic" to either "Metal" or "OpenGL", the latter described as...

Good suggestion, but not the solution unfortunately.

I've had this issue only once with another app I once downloaded for trial after seeing it here in the news. Lightroom (6.14 "perpetual") and...

I downloaded the trial version for Mac and after playing with it for just a few minutes I was about to buy it - yes, liked it that much. Then after zooming into a edit to check the effect of the...

Yes. I have already upgraded the v.1 I use on my iPad and it’s a significant improvement at no cost to me. Excellent app for use when travelling light :-)

PS: I don’t use batch processing so I...

It’s not a browser issue. After suppying my details on their web bage I got an email asking me to click a link to confirmi my email address - so my email crtainly works. Clicking “confirm” took me...

Of course.

Tried to download, failed. After confirming email address I simply never received the promised download links. I won't be bothering to follow this up - if they can't even get this bit right then......

I realise you’re in the US but my point was that a phone is all you need. I’m closer than you of course, but I’m still hundreds of miles away. It’s not clear to me how the customer service is any...

I’ve made lots of purchases (and a couple of sales) through MPB and most have been better than described or expected. Of the couple that I had issues with I got full refunds after a quick phone...
