Cheers for all the replies guys. I realise now there's loads of factors at play. It could have something to do with my picture presets, as I have the saturation on +1. Interesting about how blues can reflect a lot of uv/ir. This could be the issue maybe. Yes the pics looked fine on the...

Sorry, should probably say. Camera is a D90, and I was using the kit 18-55. The sun was just setting, and I had my mate park it in the shade out of direct sunlight

Hi, The other night my housemate asked me to photograph his car for an autotrader advert as he's selling it. His car is a deep navy blue, very much blue. I got the photos on screen and the car was a very distinct bright purple in every shot. The difference in colour wasn't subtle at all, it...

Wicked shot dude. From your description I wasn't thinkin it was gonna make much of a shot, but the results have proven me completely wrong. Awesome work

My thoughts exactly. I found lots and lots (and lots) of talk, but no statements from any manufacturers

Oh I see, makes sense now ha ha. Sorry if I sounded like an a*se

I don't understand what's going on here??? What's the difference between turning an aperture ring on the lens and turning a thumbwheel on the camera?

I'm also very interested by this. I use intermediate iso's all the time, never even give it a second thought, just roll my thumb til the shutter speed lands somewhere useable. If anyone could post some hard facts or even better a link to a study which shows this then I would certainly be...

Aha! Job done. Thanks very much

Hi, I'm trying to batch process a load of jpegs using actions. I've created an action, which applies a mild s-curve to increase contrast and then a bit of sharpening with a USM. When I try to run it by going file->automate->batch, it gets stuck on the first file with the "save as" window open...

Ha ha ha she was absolutely right I never look on these threads. Brilliant. The fifty is awesome by the way

But it takes longer to pay with cash than it does with a card. If you were behind me in a queue and you made someone feel awkward for taking an extra 5 seconds to find their money, I would deliberately take absolutely ages at the till, just to wind you up for a laugh

Sorry about the slow response, had a crazy hectic weekend. Ok, about the computer. Intel core 2 quad 8400 (2.66 GHz), 4 GB DDR2 RAM, 640GB Seagate HDD 5400rpm, 1GB Radeon HD graphics card, 7.1 soundcard with S/PDIF OUT. Can't remember what motherboard I put in it. Comps about 3 yrs old. I've...

Thanks for the heads up mate, but it needs formatting anyway because windows has dropped a b*llock, again

Cool. I think I will stick with the partitioning because it's a method I'm comfortable with and it works well for me (except in this rare case where it's fell down ha ha). Also I can't be bothered to fork out for a dedicated HDD when I don't really need one. Well 30GB wasn't enough. It's a...
