Why I have to leave Olympus
USE FILM again !! My boy was GIVEN an Olympus OM2n with 50mm f1.8 and 70-150mm Zuiko lenses and gets very good results -- no 'SOFTWARE' problems at all -- I develop his B&W and most of his C41 or take it to a High Street Pharmacy which has an account with SIGFOTO laboratory who do an excellent job of processing and printing C41.

Thank you all very much!!! I tried the pencil eraser thing and the lens started to work well; though, when I change it and put it back again the problem continues as long as I turn my eos on, then it works as expected!!! Think I got it for a cleaning and general revision. But thank you again for caring and your fast answer!!! I got the battery issue in mind too...

Bower Long Range Lens
Sounds like the Opteka 500mmF8 lens. I was soundly abused and scoffed at for buying one ( cost about £85) Good fun on a sunny day, but that's all. You won't get high quality images from it.

I found it!!! There's a nipple near the base of the flash that gets stuck. When it's stuck it doesn't know the flash popped up. Hence, take a fine pic to lift that nipple. Fixed!

50D- soft ??
Strawman, Thanks for replying. Sorry I haven’t been back sooner. Vacation and lots of work after returning have kept me busy. I am viewing the prints both printed and via the monitor. The softness is noticeable any way you look at them when comparing the RAW mode versus the sRAW1 mode. My wife can pick out the sharper image easily, which is always the sRAW1 image, and she is not into ...

HELP PLEASE!!! My Interfit EX-150's won't work at any shutter speed faster than 180th Second!??
The max flash shutter speed (which will be in your camera manual) is the max speed that will safely work with a dedicated hotshoe flashgun. Generally, it's much safer to synch studio flash heads at least 1 click lower, and often when used with cheap radio triggers it needs to be much lower than that. And why do you need a fast shutter speed in the studio anyway? The shutter speed has no m...

Raw conversion for 400d
I found an interesting website through searching in Google whereby you can go into a file in the RawShooter program and change any reference of "350D" to "400D" and the program will function with that camera instead (but probably ignore any pictures taken with the 350D!) Just found the link, though it may not link... Having a quick read, it seems you are required to convert your CR2 files in...

Lost Canon RAW software
This website has downloads of all the Canon software for the EOS 400D/XTi (scroll down to the bottom). If they're not the most up to date you should then be able to use the updates on the official Canon sites. HTH, Simon

EOS 400D
I have the battery grip for mine, it is great because I can easily get two days of busy shooting without worrying about batteries. Also I have the holder for 6 AA batteries - an extra bonus. Trouble is, the camera always thinks the batteries are full charge, it can suddenly go dead without any warning. I have heard this is a problem also with the 5D, does anyone else suffer from this? I c...
