Hi again, I just found THIS in my collection, going unused - a crime and a sin not to have this in someone's hands who will use it and cherish it - have at it,...
Thanks Susan. I'm sort of scattered shooting in all directions here but I'm learning fast. It appears that photoshops in our area are dieing out. The local...

I was going through some old storage boxes, and I came across an old Minolta XG-1 in good condition (although it needs new batteries and has no flash). I found...
Good morning, Maggie; Your Minolta XG-1 is a very good camera for starting out. You do not need to go to a digital camera to gain some experience to allow you...
Amen Ralph, well put. And Maggie, welcome aboard. We all have been there on step one and consider if it is worth it. It is. Step inside to photography and have...
When you get your photos back be sure to let us know that you've posted them for us to see! I'm so into film that I just got another camera this past week from...
I've got my first Medium format film back and scanned. I have maybe two of the 12 I wouldn't' be too embarrassed to post. I"m doing 12 hour shifts this...

If you're running a 32 bit Windows computer you will not be able to upgrade memory in the way you propose. Unless you're using a 64 bit version of Windows, no...
Chuck, I'm using some sort of HP Media computer that supposedly can support 8gig on the board. When you say your windows can only use 3 gig and you have 4...

What the computer hardware can support and what the operating system software and the application software can support can be three different things. To check...
Correct. And even with 4GB installed you will still be limited to 3 GB unless you alter what's called the "3 Gig switch" which will allow up to 3.5 GB. I...
These look like good scans but the images look a bit soft to me, especially the shot of the building overall and the doors at the edges. I realize it's only a...
I stand corrected by Vitor's post concerning Physical Address Extension (PAE). I'll have to probe that more deeply myself since I know my system does support...
I think both photos are wonderful. Different people have different preferences when it comes to their photos. Remember, I'm into the Lomography scene so my...
Thanks, I just printed your response for my next effort. In this little test I wanted to just do a walk about and used faster shutter speeds to try and avoid...

After studying this and other MS links I have concluded that Physical Address Extension (PAE) is only relevant to 32 bit Windows Server editions. The fact...

My daughter is in the BFA program in photography at Seattle U. She has worn out her 35mm camera...or maybe I usurped it thinking she needed something newer...
Wow! Sounds like good fuel for a flame war. :-) Lets start by asking what model the 35mm camera is and whether it includes any potentially usable lenses or...
My daughter graduated with a dual degree of Anthropology and Photography last year. She used her SRT100 most of the time and only the digital when they...

I wasn't sure from your message if your daughter is looking only for a digital camera or both film and digital. I can't advise you on digital, but if your...
