I think the second of this series, *Macro* lens club - PentaxForums.com, is about the best macro shot I've seen on this website.

Norm, can you help me solve an Aperture problem as I know you're the true expert here.

Camera: K-30 (up to date on firmware)
OS X 10.8.3
Aperture 3.4.4

When using Highlight Correction, the RAW images are exactly 1 stop too dark when displayed. Adjusting Exposure in Aperture to +1 restores them. JPEGs are correct straight out of the camera. With HC off, everything displays as expected.

Bug in Aperture?

Many thanks,
Jim

Hope You and Tess are far enough away from the Forest fire threat, I think it's pretty north from you

hey norm

Pentax K-7 300mm/f4 31mm/f1.8 77mm/f1.8 18-50/f2.8

Hey, thanks!

Hey Normhead,
Thanks for the offer! I will be in ontario at least once this summer if not twice. If you ever get out this way you are welcome to drop by too. We have a sailboat and a cottage but I'll bet you are busy in the summer with the outfitting. I hope I get the chance to drop by while I am visiting this summer. I know exactly where you are as I am familiar with whitney and the eastern end of the park. It would be nice to say hello in person and make a new connection with someone who appreciates the Park as much as I do. Not to mention the whole pentax thing......!!!Anyways, Take care and I'll look you guys up when I get to ottawa / belleville. My name is Scott and my wife's name is Janet. Sorry about that - I didn't notice that I forgot to put that in my last message.

Hey Norm! Can i Quote you???

Saying you don't post process is like saying you worship camera technology.. it is your god and you can't mess with it. it really is as superstitious as that. There is no magic to what a camera captures. There is no technology that captures what your eye sees and how it makes your spirit feel. Once you put the limitations of what the camera sees ahead of your own vision, you stopped being a photographer and become a technologist. The camera should help you express your vision, the camera has no vision to express.

Hey Normhead

I am a teacher in PEI. Music, Math, Fisheries, small engines, etc.. ( Large Rural School ). I grew up in Belleville Ont, camped in Algonquin almost every year since I was 2 years old.
I introduced my wife to algonquin a few years ago and she loved it there.
I think she would like to try interior camping but is nervous!!! We'll see someday.
Might not get much time in Ontario this summer but will likely go up for a night or two if at all possible.
I think you and your wife run an outfitting busines now?

added a pic to the algonquin park site. I gather there is no other interest in this group?
