    Learning more about my corel paintshop.

    Quantaray tech 10 70-300 macro.

    Got this lens off ebay the other day. It's better then the tamron 70-300 I was borrowing. I don't have chromatic aberations like the tamron did and the macro seems to work well. I will see today at lunch how it does. I will need to use my tripod or monopod with it since it's pretty heavy. It's...

    Thought my sb700 was broke.

    I turned on my flash this morning and it kept showing me to use manual mode. It wouldnt let me shoot in TTL. At first i thought it was the camera. It did it on my other one too. I went and cleaned the contacts and it works fine now.

    Mega pixel size after cropping.

    I was looking around the net yesterday to see about selling some of my pictures as stock photos. The first company I was setting up said they wanted 4Mb minimum size pic to send. I noticed most of my pictures are only 4-5Mb to start and if I crop them some decrease under 4Mb. I never really...
