Guys,

Need some help here. Why when shooting, the shutter sound like "chap ..... chak" instead of "chap-chak"? The " ..... " indicates some delay like 1 second?

Even I use high speed shutter, it still behaves the same. I wonder if this is normal? I'm not really familiar with my DSLR yet.

No. I tried fastest at 1/8000 also the same.

Nope. I'm not using "Quiet" mode. I suppose the "chap-chak" is like a swift thing, but mine is "chap ..... chak". I wonder if this is normal or something I configured? Won't be body fault gua...

Thanks for it, Andy214

After I turned it OFF, the shutter goes back to "chap-chak" swiftly. This setting is to enable/disable the delay in shutter release to reduce vibration in extreme cases where slight movement will cause blurring.

Anyone willing to spare some time to share some quick guides and quick tips on how to use Adobe Lightroom?

When we import picture and develop, Adobe Lightroom will not create another copy nor amend the original file, izzit?

It'll just save the file location and the settings in database, only when we export it'll then generate the file.

Please do correct me if I'm wrong.

I see.

Just now I developed a raw image and then exported to JPEG. Now when I reloaded the Adobe Lightroom, the "edit" I had done for the image already gone? How do I retrieve it by any chance? Do I need to "save" or anything after I had done the adjustment?

Thanks

What's the actual time for the balloon display? 7am ~ 9am and 5pm ~ 6pm?

Tickets? What tickets?

How's the parking and congestion like? I failed to make it for today. Planned to go tomorrow morning but couldn't be sure with the weather condition. It has been pretty bad these days.

The schedule is available online: http://www.myballoonfiesta.com/itinerary.html

Only 7am ~ 9am and 6pm ~ 7pm. You got one last chance today, provided if it didn't rain.

Woohoo~ here comes another D7000 user

How much you bought for the body only?

Guys, when you import your photos with LR, which import setting used? "Copy As DNG" or just "Add"?

Then save the RAW files but not the amended one or both?

Hmm... so DNG is not necessary. I googled around for info and many of them actually suggested DNG because it saves 15~20% space without losing details over RAW.

Please do correct me if I'm wrong, the changes made will be saved into the "catalog" aka "database" instead of the raw files itself? Therefore, if I lost the catalog, I'll lost all the touch-up I made? In addition, the raw will remain untouched?

Software can do wonders if utilized properly.

I saw this on my Facebook...

"We got a huge worm stuck inside our 70-200 f2.8 is. Anyone got any experience with this? How to get it out?"

Software as in general

No idea which one that guy is using, he's doing good wedding video at Australia.

It would be really interesting how there's a worm inside? Isn't it's sealed? :S

Well... the actual story happened was...

They put the lens without rear cap on the grassy ground while they're setting up. Ended up a worm went inside and they couldn't get it out even though they shook the lens here and there

Alternatively can use ACDSEE?
