April 28th, 2008 by Antoine Khater

Oh my God, I missed Saturday Links fever and the flickr round by a few days!
This lag is due to a project at work that is keeping me sleepless but I promise I would have caught up by Wednesday.
In the meantime I want to let you know that Canon Digital Photo Professional ”1” 3.3.1.1 is now available for download with some real nice improvements.

This download is NOT yet an official Canon release and available only for Microsoft Windows OS.

How to hold your digital camera ? The ultimate guide…

April 1st, 2008 by Antoine Khater

How to hold your digital camera
I have been thinking of writing a guide about how to hold your DSLR but a quick search and a recent thread on DPReview revealed to me that there are out there much more than what I can write, so instead I have made for you a special list of the best articles I found.

Proper holding a SLR camera can make the difference between a sharp image and a blurry one, it can also keep fresh after hours of shooting or tired with arm and back pains after a short moment. No matter how old or new you are in photography I do not think it would be a waste of time to read an article or two of the ones I am about to present you. You might be surprised how easy we can pick up a bad habit.

Bypass Flickr spaceball.gif the easy way

March 17th, 2008 by Antoine Khater

While working on Lucy’s post I was faced with a problem I’m sure many of you already encountered.
Lucy blocks her picture from being downloaded, so flickr wouldn’t allow me to just “right click -> save picture as” and will show the infamous spaceball.gif to save instead.

There are several solutions to bypass this protection one of them being to access the source page and copy the link right from it, being to lazy to do that I figured out a much easier way.

I’m sure you all heard about the “On Black” flickr tool from BigHugeLabs, and this is exactly what I used.

Got a Canon 40D ? Get this book !

January 17th, 2008 by Antoine Khater

This is, in my opinion, a must have book for any owner, or owner to be, of the Canon EOS 40D.
Written by David Busch, it covers in details, and in an easy to understand way, all aspects of the 40D, some even claim it is the missing Canon manual .

324 pages with a lot of pictures and diagrams laid out as follows

You’ve got a project ? I’ve got a wiki !

January 8th, 2008 by Antoine Khater

Picture by jdlasica

I never thought setting up a wiki would be so tiring ! I’ve been sleepless for 2 nights in a row but I finally got it working ”1”, so here is the idea !

What is it ?

There are so many great photography projects coming out from various photography blogs that I wanted to consolidate them all in one place. A place that would hold, with time, the history of photography projects so I setup PhotoProjectsWiki.com for that.
