i dunno yet. does it include upgrades and some?

is300eater

I'm pretty sure it does.

I mean, you drop $10 on random crap every month (when I say "you", I mean people in general), for people like us, that shoot constantly that's a bargain. Casual shooters, maybe not

einsatz

It's definitely worth it. I pay that for PS alone right now.
But I already bought LR4 when it came out :/

I am very surprised to see them offer LR in this promo. With it still being a stand alone. Getting PS CC would have been worth the $10 per month alone.


I just bought LR5 from B&H for $99 last week. I wonder if I can get Adobe to cut me a deal...

I agree for the person that has to have the latest photo/video software. its much cheaper. But i have a feeling this won't stay at this price very long.

srika

great deal from Adobe!

srika

this is no joke, I just received this question from a prominent restaurant in Chicago regarding event photography:
now, I wonder, could I do this somehow with a DSLR and Eye-fi card?

jupitersolo

You could, transfer to a mobile phone or tablet, then to FB. No camera yet goes straight to FB. Until that Canon one comes out.

srika

so basically, no.

jupitersolo

The only thing I know of now, is using a cellphone with the FB app.

srika

alrighty then

is300eater

you can pair the Eye Fi card to a mobile device, have the device logged into the Restaurant's Facebook... but you will still need someone to sit there and select the pictures -----> upload to their page. I'm sure you won't have time to do that because you'll be shooting and have your hands full.

jupitersolo

Isn't that what I said?

srika

it would be really cool if LR had integrated HDResque processing - like Topaz and and some Lucis Art style effects. no, the clarity slider is not enough. Maybe somewhere down the road.

jupitersolo

Can't see then doing so since LR has never been an "artistic" program. Topaz is a LR plug-in.

is300eater

I use the Nik HDR Efex Pro 2 plugin and it's pretty good, but I may go back to Photomatix

But you can get a bit of the HDR like effects if you slide the highlights down all the way and shadows up all the way

Does the restaurant have wifi?

Add their wifi network and the eye-fi card will auto upload to FB.

If you want to review before you upload there is an option to only upload pics that you "protect" in camera.

srika

wild! good to know! thanks!

is300eater

Just a FYI, the Eye-fi "Mobi" doesn't do that

Mizouse

O'rly?

Well I'm happy with my Pro X2 card I picked up.

is300eater

Yeah, it's a more simple (and cheaper) version strictly for wireless transfers to mobile devices (thus the name), doesn't do RAW or anything

srika

ok so note to self: avoid Eye-fi "mobi"

jupitersolo

Your description. Says you used "Dark Contrast" for that image.

is300eater

I don't really give a fuck what it says

I'm seeing this more and more for event photography requests...
like taking photos at the event isn't enough. I did a couple of events where this was required and it was not fun. Imagine taking a photo of 4 people, and then getting all their names written or typed down (make sure to get the spellings right) - and repeat. Each photo takes like 5 minutes to do. :-/

man thats harsh. imagine so many iconic photos a person can miss. Maybe having a assistant follow you while taking photos?

asianspec

people are weird btw.

srika

alright I have to admit both times I had to do it before, I had an assistant with me and she was doing that part. But even so, it gets tiring and the time adds up. I guess I am not into doing the photo-journalism part of it. I wanna snap and move on.

Maybe have a photobooth setup that you can have people tag themselves into the photos?

jupitersolo

A s a n d y day for you. You presented it as shadow and highlight adjusts, but doesn't seem that's all it was......

Mizouse

Yea I had to do it when I was a photo journalist

Met ALOT of people that way thou.

srika

my LR4 catalog = 37GB is this excessive lol is there something I can do

einsatz

Damn... you can split them up by year or account/customer.
