Who has done an IR or Full Spectrum conversion for their cameras? I have and RP that I'm thinking about sending to Kolari Vision for an IR or FS conversion. Since I have an R6mkII the RP gets left behind. Seems like it would be a good candidate for conversion. Did you find that it was worthwhile? Any tips or comments on the conversions?

This just dropped; Canon NZ page here. Full text: I got the notification from the Camera Connect app, and have used it to run the update. It seems to have gone smoothly. Camera restarts and requires you to enter a "password", but it seems more like a PIN, being numeric only. I'll report back after a play.

So I am looking to replace my old NEC monitor, and sadly NEC sold out to Samsung and no longer makes quality monitors for image production. I just bought a new computer from Puget Systems and looked through their options, most of which seem out dated. The only one that comes within my very reduced budget (due to the computer) is an Asus 27" ProArt display. I would love an Eizo, but that's just not feasible. Does anyone have any recommendations or have any feedback on the Asus...

When cropping in LRC is there any way to see what pixel dimensions you are cropping to as you crop. I know you can see the dimensions once cropped, but would like to be able to see it as i crop..

Naffing around with intervelometer for upcoming storm season. Wanna do some time lapses. So 200 shot lapse with a 1 second shutter speed with 2 second interval, clik 1 second elapses then a further one second elapses shoots again is correct? A photographer mate said no no the interval happens once shutter is closed so 1 second plus 2 equals 3. I tested it seems timing is from initial accuation of shutter. So 1 plus 1 equals the 2seconds Dumb question yeah always a class dunce in every...

Hali posted excellent results by DXO. As I believe Photofarmer once said this is a great site with no bickering about various apps and pretty much every else and I agree. I did not start this thread to invoke this type of thing. DXO is an industry leader, has been at it for a long time and put the time into Optics. I was a PureRAW user until Adobe Denoise AI came out. The main reason for a this stage of things I prefer everything under one roof. PureRAW creates a DNG when the file is sent...

Actually, I'm thinking of a different acronym of W.T.F. Today I started getting a message in Lightroom CC (desktop) V.8.4 Some images need AI settings to be updated before export. As you can see in the screen shots, the error and the fact that AI has indeed been applied. Google hasn't been a help...even when insisting I'm using Creative Cloud. The AI in question are Denoise and Adaptive Color profile. Never had an issue until this photo, and the image "appears" to have the AI applied. Any...

The joy and agony of auto ISO. Took this image of a puffin flying back to the "rock" at Elliston Puffin site at the end of the day. as you can see from the exif the ISO was 25,600. I was going to toss it but thought maybe I'd just try and see if I could salvage it with pure raw. I have the original with some LR adjustment and the pure raw DNG with the exact same adjustments. I wouldn't print it, and definitely would never use it in competition, but it is a good reminder what our current...

Looked at a friends software Helicon. Nice software nice job. But went away thinking I can do this in camera am I missing something?

…when I asked about ground level tripods, I was forced to conjure up my own solution: It’s not perfect - not crazy about “hanging the camera from the hot shoe” and it’s not overly rigid, but it’ll do, for now. I wouldn’t trust it for anything above about 2” off the ground, but that’s not the intended use. I might make a metal version later on or I might make an Arca Swiss mount that extends out then down, then forks out either side of the lens and then attaches to a plate mounted the...

As you guys I damaged lens a serious scratch almost a chip. Travel Insurance is covering it in full but had a call, more information required. As it turned out the lady was a hobbyist photographer as well. She asked did you have a UV filter or a lens hood at time of incident I said yes lens hood only. Ah good you will be fine but time will come you may well need both or insurance may be refused or reduced or excess applied. One could argue insurance companies always looking for a out...

Many of my photos are taken serendipitously while I'm driving, taking short hikes, or simply exploring the yard. I don't have a large assortment of lenses, but I use the RF-S55-210mm kit lens the most. That focal length range is flexible for my R100 and the things I like to photograph. I've been considering a higher-quality lens in a similar range, but I'll rent one first to decide if it's worth the expense. That said, I am curious. What's your go-to lens for walking around? The one you...

I recently stumbled on a used copy of an RF version of the Laowa 4mm f/2.8 210° Circular Fisheye lens for APS-C cameras. I had a Sigma 4.5mm circular fisheye briefly pass through the quiver several years ago, and I kinda missed that lens. I found the Laowa lens at a "why not?" price so I decided to give it a go. Right off the bat I ran into 2 hurdles; one small, one not so small. First, this lens it totally manual, a first for me. It focuses manually and you set the aperture manually...

Until now my carry-around camera has been a Ricoh GRII. On the plus side it is small and light with an APS-C sensor, a sharp lens, and IBIS. On the negative side it doesn't have a viewfinder. In bright light or even not so bright light, I can't see image in the LCD. One thing I knew was that I was not going to take my R6 on holiday because it's too heavy at 680g. I tried an R50 and now I have settled on an R10. I will marry it with a 16mm or a 28mm - and the only puzzle left is what to...
