QUESTIONS
1. Hi guys. I am a very amatuer photographer, in fact I only really use my old iphone 3gs. My question is simple. Can you recommend a very simple one click iphone app to fix my photo’s. It really needs to be simple. I’ve been told about instagram but I thought that was used to share the images. Thanks. Claire, Durham.
2. Hello All. I’m quite new to DSLR photography and I’ve bought myself an old Nikon D90. I have bought it second hand with some lenses and filters. Included in the bundle of goods I have a polarising filter. I have a vague idea what this does but I’d like and decent explanation as to what it can be used for and how to use it. Thanks for the show. Colin D, Ipswich.
3. I don't own either Photoshop (Elements?) or Lightroom, but if I were to buy one for photo processing what are the +'s & -'s for each? Which would the panel choose? (ISTR one of you said that Adobe Bridge had all the functionality of Lightroom, but no idea what that is…) I don't generally like Adobe bloatware but I think its likely to get more regularly updated than Aperture which would have been my preferred choice for a Mac, or is Aperture good enough for processing? I'm not too worried about the organisational side of things. XMC
4. Hi Guys (sorry if this isn’t the correct e mail link). Great show, very informative but I’m confused about imaging software. I shoot with a 40D and use Canon DPP for editing on PCs & MACs. Would there be a great advantage for moving to Adobe software or something else and, if I were to switch to Adobe I’m confused as to which titles do what eg photoshop, lightroom etc. Am thinking of giving the monthly subscription a go but want to know which bit does what. Thanks Steve (Fordingbridge, Hampshire)
PS Any views on the 5D mkII? Go for it now or remain patient for the 6D or save up for a MkIII. Dr Stephen Cockcrof
