erm... I have a question: July 2012
http://mkiss42.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Erm I have a question. Saturday, 21 July 2012. How to make Nikon JPEGs look like Canon JPEGs. So the settings are in the SHOOTING MENU:. Set the white balance to Auto (the normal one) and then tweak it so it's Amber 1 and Magenta 3 (on the little grid the black dot is one right and three down). Set the Picture Control to Neutral, and then tweak it so Sharpening is on 5, Contrast is -1, Brightness is 0, Saturation is 1 and Hue is 0. Set Colour Space to Adobe RGB. And set Active D-Lighting to Auto.

erm... I have a question: Pelican backpack attachment - for free!
http://mkiss42.blogspot.com/2015/07/pelican-backpack-attachment-for-free.html
Erm I have a question. Tuesday, 28 July 2015. Pelican backpack attachment - for free! Needless to say it was a pain to carry this thing around all day, so I decided to make it easier somehow. I found this backpack attachment thing on B&H but it's like a $100 and when it's attached, you can't roll the case. You have to take it off, and put it somewhere when you don't need it. I don't like that. It's pretty awesome, And totally workable. Here are some pics:. This is how it looks on my back. Have a good one!

erm... I have a question: Magic zippo
http://mkiss42.blogspot.com/2011/04/magic-zippo.html
Erm I have a question. Friday, 22 April 2011. This is actually a long exposure shot. I put the grey cardboard as background. manual focus and camera is on tripod. I used a Nikon D200 with the 18-70 stock lens. I glued down the lighter, opened the shutter and lit the lighter. The shutter was open for about 2.5 seconds, so it closed before the flame burnt in too much. There was some light in the room, but not much. It was enough to correctly expose the lighter in 2.5 seconds. 2 June 2011 at 04:24. Enjoy yo...

erm... I have a question: FX DX focal length confusion (updated)
http://mkiss42.blogspot.com/2010/08/fx-dx-focal-length-confusion.html
Erm I have a question. Thursday, 19 August 2010. FX DX focal length confusion (updated). I was really confused about this subject. First of all, I have a DX. Camera too, and I was told about the 1.5 crop factor. Whatever bla bla, which is fine, but I had a question which didn't seem to be answered anywhere really:. So, if I have a 18-70mm for my D200 (DX) then what lens should I buy for my D700 (FX) to cover the same zoom range? Let me start from the beginning. I have read THIS. I hope it helps someone :).

erm... I have a question: May 2013
http://mkiss42.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Erm I have a question. Saturday, 4 May 2013. FIX: SB-800 only fires full power (or any other flash). So your flash only fires full power? Or it kinda looks like it's even a bit stronger than full power? I had the same thing happened to me. Twice. When I asked, Nikon wanted I think $120 to get it fixed. Or more, I don't remember. The point is that I do not have the money to get it fixed. So, I decided to try to fix it myself. And I did. Basically I found out that. HERE is the repair manual PDF. There are ...

erm... I have a question: FX camera with DX lens
http://mkiss42.blogspot.com/2011/02/fx-camera-with-dx-lens.html
Erm I have a question. Friday, 25 February 2011. FX camera with DX lens. This is not supposed to be, but every now and then, use my 18-70 DX for the D700. If you turn off the feature that crops the image when you use a DX lens, you can get some funky vignettes. Now, I know you could achieve this with a bit of cardboard, but it's not that much fun. This is a quite pointless post, but I think the photo is interesting. Anyways, here is a post on the DX FX subject. Have fun, kids! Enjoy your stay :). FX came...

erm... I have a question: How to take high speed photos
http://mkiss42.blogspot.com/2011/03/how-to-take-high-speed-photos.html
Erm I have a question. Monday, 7 March 2011. How to take high speed photos. When I didn't know how to take shots like this, I thought, that I will need a really good camera, with fast shutter speed, and lots of light. Well, I was wrong. The shot above was taken with 6 second shutter speed, in pitch dark. (well, not really pitch dark, because I used an SB-800. This is how this shot was done:. So, i set up my camera on a tripod ( Nikon D200. On the camera right, on (I think) 1/32 or 1/64 power, in my hand.

Erm I have a question. Friday, 20 August 2010. How to export a standard PDF from InDesign. NOTE: This does not apply to CS4 and CS5 on OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. You can read on, if you are old-school and rocking CS3 or older. Standard PDF export for printing through Distiller. This is not the only way to do it, but the way I do it. This is how I send my files to the printer. Let’s say the piece is done, approved, etc. Now you want to send it to the printer. First, we make a PostScript. Marks and Bleed tab:.

erm... I have a question: DIY bounce card for the Nikon built-in flash
http://mkiss42.blogspot.com/2011/03/diy-bounce-card-for-nikon-built-in.html
Erm I have a question. Thursday, 3 March 2011. DIY bounce card for the Nikon built-in flash. It's too dark, and the high ISO setting is already killing the picture with a bucketload of noise, but the photos just look sh*t with the pop-up flash, and I don't have an SB800. Speedlight (because I broke it.) what do I do? Well, first, don't break your flash, like I did. But seriously, if you don't have an external flash, but you still want some decent lighting, here is a tip: Make a bounce card. 4: Set your b...
