Photography

I have been trying to find a GOOD flat bed scanner. It must also do larger negatives. I looked at the HP 4890 and did not like reading the bad reviews. I have a major pile of negatives in the old sizes. I can't afford to have them printed conventionally.

I scanned some old 3x5 pics to my computer w/ a Lexmark x83 scanner in JPEG format and sent them to the walmart photo lab to get duplicates and made them into 4x4's for a project i'm working on; the prints came out and now they look blurry and blocky. I am very unhappy and need to find another way to get copies of these pics to come out correctly or at least find out why they are turning out this way.The photo lab people seemed to have no clue! The pics are for a Christmas project scrapbook.

I have the traditional 28-80 lense right now. I have money to invest in another. I thought about a zoom lense. What are the benefits? I do all types of photography, so it's hard to say what I take the most of. However, I would like one that would help me with indoor photography. I need more light indoors. I could buy an off camera flash or what would you suggest?

I know the rule (for 16mm film) of Lens divided by 10 multiplied by 2 = a close-up of your subject. Here's our plight: say you have a 50mm lens and your subject is 13 feet away. 10 feet is a close-up, how do you determine what you would call the framing of a shot of the subject 13 feet away? MCU, still a CU?, MS?

It would be great if it was very classy and elegant for for formal affairs , not those cheap ones you find all over the internet. I have an image of one I like but cannot find it ANYWHERE ON THE NET.

Hi,

All the portrait studios I called will need 10 days to deliver the holiday cards. That's too late for me. I am thinking to take the photo at home and add a background to the photo by myself.

I would like to know what software to use and where to find backgrounds.

In addition, is professional service available online where I can email them the photo and they add the background for me?

Thank you very much!

this is my first time using a TLR camera, and my photo teacher told me i had to crank the film to advance it, and it'll stop when it's done. my camera doesnt have a crank, it has a knob with "10, 16, 25, 32, 50, 80, 100, 200, ASA" on it which advances it. I loaded the 120 roll film and advanced it..but it just kept advancing. When am i supposed to stop?

I enjoy photographing old broken down automobiles and trucks as subjects. There is a house that has an old Ford truck parked in an open door shed behind the main house. Could the owner press charges if I walk on his property to take the shot? I thought about using a zoom lens, but I don't think I can get close enough.

I am considering trying to become a photographer of some sort for a job but have no idea how to go about it.
I'm not sure if my photos are even good enough to be considered to be used for anything. If there's anyone out there who would care to look and give me feedback and/or advice, i'd be greatful!

I need to know what the BEST free photo editing program is that I can download. I have Picasa but it just doesn't do much for me. You can only adjust lighting, crop, etc. on it. Pretty much just basic stuff. Is there any photo editing program out there that has all the tools and things for free? What would you say is the BEST photo editing program out there? Keep in mind--it has to be something I can download *legally* for free. Thanks!

I love photography, but only a certain kind of photography. Not just having people say "cheese" and smiling--that's boring. I love candid, artsy, interesting pictures such as a building or people walking down the street. Along with those preferences, I also love when the photograph is of a certain coloring. I love pictures where the colors are bright and vivid..almost to the point that you want to open your eyes more just to stare at the colors instead of the actual picture. Here are examples of the kind of coloring I like in photos. These aren't my photos, but they are examples of how I want my photos to look. Can anyone help me get my pictures to look like these? Is it a certain lighting? A photo editing program? What makes photos look like this?

I recently went to an amateur art festival. This one exhibit had huge panoramic canvas pictures of landscape photos (taken with a digital camera). Up close the pictures looked like oil paintings, but they were actually digital photos printed on this canvas as art. The pieces were expensive (around $800). The girl said she took the photos on her digital camera herself, had the pictures professionally developed, and then printed them on the canvas herself - in house. These pictures were huge. There were panoramic style and were about 30" x 48" (2.5 ft x 4 ft). The canvas was attached to a wooden stretcher frame for direct hanging on a wall w/o need for a frame. I was wondering if anyone knew any more on this subject. Is there a special name for this process of digital photography onto canvas art? What kind of printer is used? Where do you get the pictures developed? What else is needed for this process? Starting costs? Where can I go for additional information on this subject?

Look at this slideshow and tell me how they made these pictures. Specifically what kind of light they used... I tried it with a flashlight, but I couldn't get this bright white light they have. Please give me any insight you have.
