Mike Chaney's Tech Corner

I have been asked what processing I did on a selection of images I showed at Camera Club last night.

Is there a extractable detailed record anywhere in QI?

Right Click on thumb gives the basic Raw adjustments but I cannot see any details for Editor adjustments other than going the process again and manually listing the adjustments and this appears to be a bigger job than I envisaged.

Jeff, the above is a sample of what is stored in the FLT  file for the edited image.

That is obviously worthless for Show and Tell.
So you can use words like " a dash of Fill and a spot of HDR, plus DFS in the editor which was set to sharpen only the purple."

But the best thing you can is to ask them to download the FREE Demo of Qimage Ultimate, and you will be happy to bring your images and their associated filters for any and all to copy.

You then explain what and why you did what you did.

Fred

Get them to install even a QI free demo :) :) You jest sire. :) :)

I have tried that quite a few times to drum up trade for Mike.

But he hasn't got ADOBE in front of his name, so not a chance.

This side of the pond the sun only shines out of the ADOBE A**E

You see, Jeff!
We have this:

Wright brothers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Wright brothers
Orville and Wilbur Wright in 1905
Born    Orville: August 19, 1871, Dayton, Ohio
Wilbur: April 16, 1867, Millville, Indiana


The Wright brothers, Orville (August 19, 1871 – January 30, 1948) and Wilbur (April 16, 1867 – May 30, 1912), were two American brothers, inventors, and aviation pioneers who are credited[1][2][3] with inventing and building the world's first successful airplane and making the first controlled, powered and sustained heavier-than-air human flight, on December 17, 1903. From 1905 to 1907, the brothers developed their flying machine into the first practical fixed-wing aircraft. Although not the first to build and fly experimental aircraft, the Wright brothers were the first to invent aircraft controls that made fixed-wing powered flight possible.

.. and we have this:
European skepticism

In 1906 skeptics in the European aviation community had converted the press to an anti-Wright brothers stance. European newspapers, especially those in France, were openly derisive, calling them bluffeurs (bluffers).[89]

Ernest Archdeacon, founder of the Aéro-Club de France, was publicly scornful of the brother's claims in spite of published reports; specifically, he wrote several articles and, in 1906, stated that "the French would make the first public demonstration of powered flight".[90]

The Paris edition of the New York Herald summed up Europe's opinion of the Wright brothers in an editorial on February 10, 1906:

    The Wrights have flown or they have not flown. They possess a machine or they do not possess one. They are in fact either fliers or liars. It is difficult to fly. It's easy to say, 'We have flown.'[89]

In 1908, after the Wrights' first flights in France, Archdeacon publicly admitted that he had done them an injustice.[90]

So you see, sometimes, Qimage is something to reckon with as was the powered flight

Agreed. If you look at the number of times I have advocated Qimage Ultimate on DPReview the results would make you weep.

That lot would rather spend days battling with Lightroom and Photoshop than a couple of hours trying something fresh.

I have given up hope - but I continue to promote QU more out of fun than expectations.

But at least we know the capabilities.....

Tony

A little ray of hope:
A friend at my photo club used to use QU but then got Light Room and never updated for about 3 years. The other day he told me he'd responded to Mike's recent offer and got the latest version. I offered a tutorial session to update him on the latest features. I'm not sure if he'll continue to use LR for raw conversion etc. but he be getting an ear bending from me now and again.

Jeff,
Take screen shots of the refine and editor screens, pop then into a Powerpoint item as a basis for your talk.
Terry

Thanks.

That's an idea.

Jeff

Tried it.  I use open office.

It would work fine.

Double benefit, I can now bore every body with a Power Point type presentation :) I am going
to have fun.

This forum is a useful info resource.

Jeff

 

Jeff,
You have even more fun by making a screen capture video. Fred & I use LiteCam HD.
What ever, let us know how you get on.
Terry

I have for a long time wondered what you used, interesting.
The quality is so good, I know of no other program with such slick and to the point instructions, even I can usually understand them first run through
