Did a small test on Star trails: 6", iso=600, f/2.0, fl=20mm, z6ii, 20 shots (interval timer). StarStaX results: 1. Amount= medium (default in Tools setting) 2. Amount= less I suspect that the Amount setting in Tools is reversed, i.e., less = more and more = less. Any comments?

I clicked the NYT link and it asked me for providing an email account to continue reading... I used my Gmail account as it says: The company (Google) said that anyone with an existing subscription that had been set up with a Google account, such as one linked to a news outlet, would be...

Done that yesterday... :)

I forgot what I did to my Gmail account now that seldom, almost none any mail (except mail from Google) comes to bother me compared with all my ATT accounts that come with tons of junk, and spam emails daily! That's why I worry a bit that Google may find my account inactive... but once in a...

I have a Gmail account and dozen other non-Google email accounts. My Mail app (Mac) checks all my email accounts (including Gmail) many times daily. Do I keep it active as very few (or nearly zero in a while) emails are received with my Gmail account?

Do using Chrome browser or Google Earth, but not checking Gmail still count as active? Or do you have to use all Google apps to stay active?

My image example comes out right from z6ii (jpeg) with standard color profile, no pp. Your test image looks all-natural to me on my monitor screen. BF could be right about the color profile issue.

Maybe, but it seems there are rare others' (including my) images I see on my monitor screen having the similar color cast. For example, (if you think my example's color looks off, let me check what's wrong.)

I am not sure if this problem is due to only my (computer) screen: all your posted images including Fred's sky replacement show a much unnature sky color (like painting greenish). Maybe it's just post-processed color?

Thanks for your response, Needa. Unfortunately, I got puzzled when I tried to take screenshots to show the problem. First I took a screenshot from one of your images that was displayed in the browser (stretched), then I clicked the image to open a floating viewer that contains your original...

How come you all have opposite conclusion (regarding "detail") from the video guy's comparison?

Hi Needa, I see you always (well, maybe not always but all recent posts at least) scale down your images to 900x610. On my computer/browser screen, they are all stretched to fit unless I click them to bring up the originals. The issue is since the images are stretched, they kind of all lose...

Fred, your last posting (above) regarding my inability to receive notification emails ended the quest in unblocking from the ATT blacklist with no resolution. Now surprisingly after 5 months of zero notification emails received, a few days ago Nikonites notification emails suddenly appeared in...
