1. You can make a photograph of anything and anyone on any public property, except where a specific law prohibits it. e.g. streets, sidewalks, town squares, parks, government buildings open to the public, and public libraries. 2. You may shoot on private property if it is open to the public, but you are obligated to stop if the owner requests it. e.g. malls, retail stores, restaurants, banks, and office building lobbies. 3. Private property owners can prevent photography ON their property, but not photography OF their property from a public location. 4. Anyone can be photographed without consent when they are in a public place unless there is a reasonable expectation of privacy. e.g. private homes, restrooms, dressing rooms, medical facilities, and phone booths. 5.

Converting Color Film Negative to Positive Using Photoshop by Removing the Orange Cast by Jeffrey Sward
If the digital image of a color film negative is made with a film scanner, then most of this article is irrelevant. All film scanning software comes with color negative options. Look for color negative options in the scan software. Typically a variety of color negative film types are presented in the film scanner software, such as Kodak Gold 100, Fuji NPS, etc. After scanning a color negative with a film scanner using the color negative software setting, the resulting file will be a normal positive image. When doing any film scanning, either of negatives or positives (slides), the objective of the scan is to avoid clipping in all of the color channels, not making the scan look good. Once a film scan is made which contains full and complete data is each channel, then a regular workflow is applied to the image in order to correct and optimize the tones.
Tonal quality and dynamic range in digital cameras
Making fine prints in your digital darkroom Tonal quality and dynamic range in digital cameras by Norman Koren updated Feb. 15, 2005 Prints made from images captured on digital cameras can have extraordinary tonal quality, comparable to the finest full-toned traditional prints. Storing images in RAW format-- the image sensor's native format, Converting and editing images using file formats with a bit depth of 16 (48-bit color or 16-bit B&W), and Using curves to adjust tones. JPEG is a lossy compressed format that sacrifices a small amount of information to achieve a large savings in storage. Introduction: RAW conversion Digital sensors (both CCD and CMOS) are linear. Output luminance = (pixel level)gamma To obtain the pixels, the raw output of the image sensor, which is proportional to exposure, must be converted to a file with a standard color space using the inverse of the above operation. pixel level = (RAW pixel level)1/gamma ~= exposure1/gamma Human vision and tonal levels (G.

Your internal flash will work without removing the Custom Hot Shoe Cover, so the only time you'll take it off is to use an external flash, and high-tolerance machining ensures it won't slip out on its own. In place, it protects the camera's flash contacts from rain and dirt, eliminates snagging when you pull the camera from your pocket, and it simply looks good. Tip: It is small, so when you take it off, make it a habit to put it in the same place every time, whether that's your left front pants pocket or a pocket on your camera bag. You can read this DPreview post for more opinions. This hot shoe cover also fits the LX5, in case you ever lose the one that comes with the camera. This adapter is beautifully machined from Delrin and uses the camera's hot shoe cover as a solid base for the mechanical cable release. This adapter also fits the LX5. Note that a cable release is not included, so you can buy the length(s) you need or use one you already own.

Finally, you then invert the corrected negative by simply selecting the Invert selection under the Image, Adjust. If your inversion results in a not quite right color leveled picture, simply try using Image, Adjust, Auto Levels. Lather, rinse, repeat if you’re not quite happy with the results, or if you have several images to convert. The final image should now be ready to send on its merry way to a printer, web page, or whatever purpose you have for it. A brief recap of the steps: • Shoot a picture of the color negative • Shoot a picture of the film leader.
The Land List
An Ongoing Project in Cataloging Polaroid Cameras "From this evolved two theories. First, Land was correct to ignore conventional wisdom: he was teaching the American public, and by extension a world market, that the Polaroid camera was not a lifetime acquisition, but an evolving idea, an ongoing adventure, an exploration of technology." Welcome to The Land List! Most of this data has been compiled from pamphlets, manuals, and other publications printed by the Polaroid Corporation throughout its history and/or the products themselves. Are you new to the Land List site? Camera Listings: A detailed camera reference, including basic technical specifications, identification notes, and other descriptive information, plus dates of production and original list prices when known. All Polaroid film products (including all formats of instant film) will be phased out by the end of 2009. What's New (01/17/2008): Hey Hey Hey! SX-70 film is back?! I did mention that there were two news items, right?
