Overall I was pretty meh on the fireworks pictures I took this 4th of July, but this one reminded me of a cosmic skull. It kinda blows my mind and makes me smile! 18-4thOfJuly-5521 by Sam Posten III, on Flickr Also, I liked this Orb Weaver i shot earlier this week: 18-DeckSpider-5641 by Sam...

Been a while since I posted at HardForum. Sooooo many great shots in the 2017 and now 2018 thread.! I’m still experimenting with stuff, I love making new mistakes. I’m a Kickstarter “super backer”, I will fund stuff that looks interesting from awesome folks I want to see succeed, regardless...

JStamsek That mountain pic might be one of my faves ever, wow! --- I've never been super impressed with the quality I was getting out of the 80-400. That changed Saturday with the Ocean City Air show. Combo of D500 and the 80-400 was INCREDIBLE. Very happy with how these came out. Only half...

Hi Hardforum, been a while since I had something worth posting here. If there's anything better than seeing a 65 ton Abrams tank go flying over a 3 foot berm and firing while airborne I have yet to see it. Definitely the cover of my book this year! 17-APGLiveFire-9863 by Sam Posten III, on...

Thanks Sofa, I will just stick with Optical for now.

Yeah that totally didnt work. I added a second monitor temorarily and it looks like in Win 10 it's up and down not left and right and you need to actually select it. What a flipping PITA. Sticking with optical for now...

Yep, I just learned to hit Win P then arrow left and right!

So I have a new 980TI, I have my old 1080p monitor hooked up via DVI, it works fine. I have also 2 display ports and an HDMI out on the card. I want to send the HDMI to my receiver for surround sound. Doing that tho it identifies that I now have 2 monitors hooked up, despite the fact that there...

Thanks, will keep that in mind next time!

Thanks for the kind words on my first Air Show pics from the other day. Full set now up. Lot of work to cull and edit, I think a lot of em are a bit too blue, will see when printed. Think I get rid of most of the fuzz tho. 16-OC Air Show 16-OC-AirShow-0291 by Sam Posten III, on Flickr...

Been a while since I posted here, thought I'd share this one. 15-4thOfJuly-1856 by Sam Posten III, on Flickr

Yeah, we didn't make the best of cut. Oh well, still something to look forward to last year and we had a heck of a lot of fun making this one so that's reward enough. Thanks for asking! Surprised nobody else here seems to post any videos as much traffic as the APITin20XX threads get...

Not quite Macro level, but damn impressed at the detail the aging iPhone 5 got with this shot of a Fly on the Wall. Fly on the wall by Kadath, on Flickr

I bought one of these when they first came out at full price and returned it the next day. I wouldn't use it fi someone gave me one for free.

While this is the Video forum as well as stills it seems there is no thread to pimp our video creations, guess we need one? I searched and didn't find it so I'll happily eat crow if I missed it. Anyway..... This is our 2014 Baltimore 48 hour film project short: I'm Here for the Kid! This...

I just hooked up my iMac to a receiver and speakers, the issue is that the receiver is hooked up to 4 other devices as well. I'd like to have the option of kicking sound over to the receiver about 10% of the time so the internal speakers need to keep working. I've got the screen mirrored so that...

Cool, glad to be a little help. I am no expert, I just keep experimenting and noting what works for me and trying new stuff myself! Good luck!

If that's being asked of me I'll say: Nikon D4, 80-400 lens at 400mm, solid tripod. Moon: 1/250, F7.1, iso 250. Nebula & Jupiter 1.3 seconds, F7, ISO 12,800 Lightroom is minor edits to the 4 light sliders, cranked to 10-14 clarity and vibrance, and punched up the sharpmess sliders and a little...

Thanks for the kind words!

I am still experimenting every chance I get, trying to see what I can make work and grinding slowly better with Astro stuff whenever I can. Still not really set up more than a stable tripod and DSLR, but I got my new scopes out tonight and did some shots with the D4 and the 80-400 too just to...

Yosemite was closed, but we made the best of it. Went past the barriers we could and had to skip the visitors center and all the activities there. Never got a good shot of Half dome's good side because of it. Wound up going to Mono Lake and Mammoth lakes for most of our time there instead...

Probably not much you haven't seen here before in the live sreams EQNext wise, but here's my images from attending SOELive, shows the live quests, panels and stuff for EQ1 and my trip to the Pinball HoF: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kadath/sets/72157635120775288/

Thanks guys. Just need to decide if I really wanna blow $800+ on a system for a free $250 card now.

I was fortunate enough to win an EVGA GTX760 at an event held by Sony last week. I think it's this model: http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperClocked-Dual-Link-Graphics-02G-P4-2762-KR/dp/B00DHW4HM0/ref=amtcd_B00DHW4HXY_B00DHW4HM0 I actually just bought a decent alienware system last year with a...

In general I hate taking mid day pictures with direct sun over head, but I think this one works despite the awful lighting. 13-1812-1081 by Kadath, on Flickr

Anyone done it themselves? How hard was it? Where did you buy from?

Testing out my new 80-400VR2, so far I'm liking it. Handholding is tough, and you can see some blur in this shot even at the high shutter speed and VR engaged. VR might be a mistake with birds, still exploring. 13-ConowingoApril-0045 by Kadath, on Flickr Also over the weekend I got to shoot...

To be clear, are all of these cross play with windows (and osx where available)? ie there are no Linux exclusives?

I bought a few of these before the sale, one is my Time Machine backup disk and one I manually backup my RAID to. Keep one cable in and swap the drives out, works great. Obviously needs a quick reformat to work on OSX.
