Show Notes…

In the mailbag listener Keith had some neat comments about raw, and also a format call .dng (Digital Negative) He mentioned the DNG converter, and you can get that free from adobe for Windows or Macintosh. There was also a question from greg about reasoanly priced 3d pano tripod heads. It seems that Manfrotto offers some in their 300 series, but they still cost a fair penny

In the news this week we talked a bit more about PS CS3 beta, so if your on a Mac and haven’t gotten it yet you’ll want to check it out. You can pick it up at the Adobe Labs Website
Also Kevin Kubota just released his latest action set called Artistic Tools Volume 3

In the tips this week I mentioned fellow photographer David Jay’s software site as well a really neat pack of Adobe Camera Raw presets called Brilliant Bridge Settings

Pick of the week this week is WinkFlash.com for their reasonably priced canvas wraps, as well as lots of other neat stuff .

I think that about covers it for this week.
Merry Christmas… Gavin

Show Notes…
This week I talked about some news regarding the up and coming release of Adobe Photoshop CS3 . I found some info over at Think Secret that gives some details. Other than that the show pretty much covers it in out discussion of me switching to raw, and talking about some low light shooting techniques.

I plan on talking more about shooting techniques, and situation in future shows as I think we can all use them. Also I plan on working out some way for us all to post images online for each other to view.
Have a great week… Gav

Show Notes…
So this week a few things from the mailbag. Listener Gene asked a few questions about going pro, and also told me about his informational site at www.pixveritas.com I checked it out and there lots of info on there. Listener James also asked about the lab that recent guest Brady Dillsworth uses for his canvas gallery wraps. I check with Brady, and he said he uses Burrel Pro Labs

We talked more on the same topic we discussed last week “Inspiration” Listener Reuben sent in some inspiring quotes for photographers, and then I just talked about ideas that can help keep us going when we’re out shooting.

That’s about all for this week… Happy shooting

Gav
