PRISCILLA TURNER

In my experience if you are aiming at a really good printable file that will not always be quite enough.

Lovely sky colours, not always obtainable with older Pentax DSLRs.

But a much better one for the educated use of filters. Set your WB to Incandescent w. no 80A for gross underexposure. Set it to Fluorescent w. no FL- filter of any type for poor exposure. This is why:

They certainly include the 80A, the 81A/B and the FL-Day with WB set to Daylight. I use one of those almost every time I shoot with my Pentaxes. But yes, get really good ones, and use the lenshood ...

Spectacular shots, cheered me up before bed!

Assuming that your prints will eventually be matted, you will need quite some margin anyway.

I'd never load myself down with three primes with such a relatively small total range of focal lengths. Such a nuisance to be always changing, and for so small a difference in angle of view! One ...

Very beautiful, but actually I find the original much more artistic. Perhaps less shadow lightening would be nice?

Yes, always was excellent value, I had this for years before the WR version.

Just made this series http://priscillaturner.imagekind.com/store/Images.aspx/c2853121-d41d-4e69-a3d6-202405852983/IWASTHERE14B with the older WR version which I believe is optically identical with ...

I own polarisers, but use them very little. The ND filter is I agree less and less useful: I own none, and in extreme cases will simply use a contrast mask in post. I use the 80A, the FL-Day and ...

I'd frankly call this place glorious, much more than "quite nice". The organ is not now the largest, somewhere in California there's a bigger one. It is however truly remarkable when played in ...

In PS, I'd select a small rectangle, and use Edit-Transform-Scale and stretch the good part to cover the white to a bit outside the frame.

DxO 11 Elite's Denoise carefully adjusted, plus sometimes Clearview, works wonders. I have recently taken some old scans and applied these with extra-fine results. I save as a big preferably ...

Yes, with Vuescan, even the most violent colour shifts become tractable, and with extra saturation in post fading is not untreatable either. Most of my images here are scanned from faded, grainy ...

Yes, with older lenses the smallest aperture was usually the sharpest, in contradistinction to modern ones.

If you can come by the 18-250 it is fully correctable in DxO and very convenient. It is capable of a shot like this handheld at near the long end: ...

I dunno about LR, but in PS do File-Scripts-Image Processor and apply your preset to all images in a directory. If need be move a whole lot of images into a directory and do this, then move the ...

No filter ring is the killer for me. A slower wide zoom with normal filtration is my bag.

I have Pentaxes, but I believe that when I pull a raw into DxO 11 Elite, the programme makes a guess as to the Colour Temperature for its  'As Shot' setting. How it does this except perhaps by ...
