"Nikon View will display any JPEG file. It will not display raw files from the Lumix. The web page I looked at said the Lumix comes with PHOTOfunSTUDIO 5.0 HD Edition, SILKYPIX Developer Studio 3.1 SE . You could use those programs…"

"Ask your friends and see if one has a portable CD Drive or yes it might install from a USB stick. Also View is now version two, that is on your Nikon web site"

"EXCELLENT idea! Any idea how to get it onto a computer that doesn't have a CD drive? Could I put it on another one and somehow copy it to a USB drive to move it over? AND, can it be used for my LX5 images also?"

I'm set up great on my mac but am taking my little Dell netbook with me to India next week. I'd used it overseas 2 years ago and was frustrated but they were much longer trips and I was trying to do too much.I'm looking for something really just to download into, take a quick look/delete the really bad ones, copy them on to other storage device, put a few up on FB or flickr. I shoot raw and could do raw/jpg but that would take up a lot more space on cards, computer, other storage.Already on the…See More

"I used to shoot slides. Sometimes I would send a slide to a lab to have a print made. They always came out quite dark. Shooting digital and printing on an Epson R1900, I had the same problem. Calibration of everything did not…"

"Hi Julie, a white point of 6500K is fine and it is actually the native white point of that particular HP monitor. It can be difficult calibrating one monitor without having a reliable 'reference monitor' side by side for comparison…"

Monitor color/temperature balance

Greetings all,Technical background info: D5000, NEF files, tone and color work done in LR. Macbook with an HP ZR 24w monitor. Spyder3Elite which I use religiously, including the ambient light monitor.Problem: My prints (mpix and a local professional lab) are coming out dark. I emailed with (unfortunately, he wasn't there when I went in) the technical guy at my local lab and with mpix. I never got to a place of resolution with either of them and have some questions before I go back to them…See More

"I decided to, instead of buying a new computer, upgrading my current laptop by increasing ram and putting in a larger, faster hard drive, and buying a reasonably good separate monitor. Works like a charm and I essentially have a new computer for…"

"What are you using most often now? I had PSE 8 and found it somewhat frustrating/complicated. I found that I was mostly using Camera Raw and not using the PS portion of it very much. I did some research and got LR3 and adore it. It does not do…"

Julie Orfirer replied to Lingwei's discussion Exposure correction/settings

"It's been that way since I bought it.... (Didn't know enough then to have a clue about anything.) Easier, at this point to just let it be but that is a good thought and I'll look into it. Thanks."

Julie Orfirer replied to Lingwei's discussion Exposure correction/settings

"I shoot in A or M on my D5000. I set the function button to ISO and use it frequently if I can't get what I want with ap and ss. I tend, also, to keep my exposure compensation at +3. If I am to trust the light meter (which is the barometer by…"
