I have a Canon 7D with 70-300 IS L zoom and have been trying BIF for months! I go to a local marsh where you're guaranteed a chance at a heron, egret or geese flying past you. I've not yet found a setting that works best however. I currently have continuous tracking set and hoped that by...

A quick addition on the Lightroom topic. I've noticed on all forums a number of complaints that LR4 won't run on XP whether 32bit or 64bit. Adobe have quite bluntly said that they have no intention of investing time and money on an operating system that is obsolete and no longer supported. I'm...

I've run the new LR 4 for a couple of days now. The installation went fine and when I ran it, it offered to upgrade my LR3 catalog (which I'd backed up just in case!). It did this flawlessly. When opening an image previously adjusted in LR3 that image will keep the LR3 develop settings under...

If you mean downloading FROM Flickr, Flickr has many options for displaying your photos and each has the option for copying the download link in different places! You're looking for a button called SHARE. Click and there will be the URL for that particular photo. If you really meant upload onto...

I have installed the new Beta for Lightroom 4. It is unable to use or import from the existing LR3 catalog so I've had to create a new one. I find that, as I've previously commented on forums, although the most recent adjustments have been applied, I've lost the history and also attributes...

I am using LR 3.6 and this is my query. I have processed a number of images in my current catalog. I created a new catalog and imported a photo I'd previously adjusted in LR. The resulting imported image showed the adjustments I'd made but had lost the history of those adjustments. Where...

Don't want to confuse you but there is no need to loose part of your image if you need to crop to fit a paper size. The solution is not to make it fit! There is no law that says an image has to be composed to fit A4 or A3 format. What you can do is use Photoshop to first create a blank...

I use Photospeed Platinum Gloss (which isn't glossy, more a good satin!) and profiled it myself using my ColorMunki which also profiled my monitor. What software do you print with? If Photoshop, make sure to set photoshop (or any other software) to print using the correct paper profile and...

Thanks all. Looking forward to contributing.

Hi from another new member.

Hello all. A friend recommended this site and after a look around, like what I see! I'm a lifelong amateur but have done some professional work too. I adopted digital as soon as I could and haven't looked back. I used to process all my own colour/black&white and messed around in the darkroom...
