[LRflex] Re: Another River, the Seine

Salut Phil

In fact, I have turned on an option (er, forgot where it stands) by which 
the focus can be modified with the ring after the focus has been done.

It runs as, depress the shutter release halfway, Bzzzzzzz, adjust the focus 
by hand (brrr-brrrr), take picture (cluck).

very handy, especially when the autofocus makes it on a wrong point.

I mean the little PnS my have 11 zones, it does make mistakes also.

I have not explored the RAW yet. In fact, it requires to have the knowledge 
of the the header of the file. Indeed, SilkyPix cures the probs but, 
normally, if I can grab the info, Corel can issue a patch and I cn record 
the type in my preferences.

And the leica gives info and software for Adobe elements but I like my 
Corel. And if I were under UNIX, it would be worse....

Question, do you have an idea of the content of the header file?  Your 
computer gives some infos for it?

Sorry Listers, we ar involving into IT more than photo.

I like the approach of Steve Barbour "JPEG's just fine" :)

Cheers.
