    Optimum memory to run Photoshop CS6

    I just bought a new desktop computer today to use for my photography instead of a laptop. It can with 8GB of memory but has a maximum of 32GB. Windows 8, 64bit (do they even still have 32bit systems) It has 4 slots for memory and two are in use with 4gb each. I was thinking of adding two 8gb...

    Normal vs. Fine quality

    I edit my wife's photos from her L120 all the time and I always open them in ACR to do the editing. The best reason is the Shadow control you have. So much better than even PhotoShop. My sister recently shot something with her phone and the picture subject was a once in a lifetime and the...

    Manifesto

    Camera – The best camera is the one you have with you. AUTO, Program, Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority or Manual - Never shoot in Full Auto. It give you no control at all and you might as well just use your cell phone. Program is a good place to start with when you first get your camera and...

    Don's Old Daily Dabblings

    Re: Don's Daily Dabblings OK, The last one of the day. I am seeing this more and more lately and although it may take great pictures it just looks so very odd. Taking pictures with an iPad I could not get my camera up fast enough to get him actually shooting.

    Having trouble figuring out what to shoot...

    One of the best and most unusual photos I have seen in a while came from one of the members here. Dave W. It was a oil sheen on a parking lot with a leaf on it. I can't find it right now but maybe he will see this and post it for us. It is really eye catching and shows what most of us miss...

    Glasses

    Well I had to go to the eye doc to get some new glasses. I have been wearing bifocals for years so the doctor convinced me to try the new digital progressives that they have now. No line and the glass is ground to have the perfect prescription no matter what part of the lens you are looking...

    SB-700 and the diffuser dome

    One of the tasks I set for myself this summer was to learn more about flash photography. Way back in the film days I had a three flash setup for my Olympus OM-2n and had all the umbrellas and stands to match. They worked great and I got very good results. But that is not what I am doing now...

    Photo Collage

    Not sure how that software works but whatever you use will involve using layers. In PhotoShop CS6 it is pretty easy. This is the basic method. You take the mask and make the white areas transparent. You then take the other pictures and put in an additional layer and they arrange the layers to...

    Table lights for light box

    Something like this might work. Use one of the compact florescence lights. These are a little expensive but I would bet these would work pretty good http://www.amazon.com/Compact-Fluorescent-Daylight-Balanced-Patented/dp/B001A0GFCG
