Determining camera pre-set settings in each photo?

Is there a way to see the camera pre-set settings (eg auto, portorait, night, children, etc etc) that are available on most DLSRs? I can see the "file properties" and "metadata" to see fstop / shutter etc, but not which setting was used.
many thanks.

I think most cameras just call this an auto mode as the camera determines specific aperature, focal area, color mode, shutter settings, etc..
All the data should be in the metadata file.

How to have the same adjustment settings for each photo?

Hi all,
Can anyone shed any light on this? When I click on a photo and I want to sharpen, noise reduce etc, I have to select these parameters to appear, I do the adjustments and then click on the next photo....
Now, I want to do DIFFERENT adjustments BUT use sharpen, noise reduction again, and it does not remember this, so I have to select these again... very annoying.
So, can I make sure that the same adjustment panels appear each and every time I click on the photo?? Hope this is clear!!
Many thanks!

Zen Micro Photo Pre-Set EQ Settings

Is there any documentation on the settings for the Creative Pre-Sets on the Zen Micro Photo I did a search but don't think I was coming up with anything ... mostly user settings.
Just curious as I am clueless when it comes to EQ settings and when I try to set my own, they just don't sound right. I know about the highs/lows and mids but was curious ... I am using Disco right now with Bass Boost OFF and it sounds good to me but was just curious about tweaking the settings in the Custom EQ.
Thanks!

There was a post a long, long time ago with some of the settings (i don't know the post or what the settings are), but the pre-sets are basically the same ones as in windows media player. WMP has more sliders to adjust the different ferquences than the ZMP has, but the presets are very close (if not identical) to the WMP ones.

Quick camera button sets the camera in automatic settings.

Hi,
A friend is having troubles with his Z3 :
He used to take pictures with the quick camera launch button, but since a recent camera or system update, when he use this button, the camera is set to automatic mode instead of manual, with poor resolution and quality settings. If he launches the camera with the standard button from the phone menu, everything is fine and perfectly set up.
When the camera is used from the quick button and set back to the correct quality settings and manual mode, after closing it, it goes back to auto mode with bad settings. Same thing when he slides the camera icon from the locked screen. The only way to get the proper settings when launching the camera is to use the icon from the phone's menu.
He tried a lot of thigs, from uninstalling the camera updtades to searching everywhere on the internet, there is no informations or messages about this problem.
Where is this problem coming from ? The quick button is unusable since that update, it's a shame !
Thanks in advance !

Well not really, I had it too and we are 100% sure that the quick camera button starts the camera in it's deffault settings since a recunt update.
What would be the point anyway of a button like this if the camera isn't usable ?! The aspect ratio is even set to 16:9 in 8mpx instead of 4:3 12mpx…
My friend is so used to launch the camera with that button that now he keeps using it by "error" and take photos that are not proper to use later…
I'm personally using a nexus 5 and had some bad changes after some automatic updates too, but this one on the Z3 simply kill one of it's most useful feature, and since almost nobody is talking about it I'm afraid that it will stay like this forever.

Ipad Camera Photo - set to take periodic photos automatically. Not video time lapse.

In prep for Hurricane Sandy.... I would like to set my ipad to a bayfront scene, set it to take a photo every say 10 minutes, and leave it. I have tried a couple of the timelapse apps, but they collect the discrete images and create a video. What I would like as the outcome is a set of photos, as if I had stayed and hit the shutter button every ten minutes from the location. Any suggestions are welcome!

Hi,
Photos is probably better than iPhoto for personal images, BUT:
I need to make the new Photos app not open automatically every time I plug in an iPhone or iPad or camera into the computer.
I take a lot of photos for work and I import those through the Image Capture App which allows me to import photos into a specific set folder - not my photos folder.
In iPhoto>Preferences>General, set Image Capture as the default camera handler.

Also, related, how do I make iTunes not automatically open when I plug in the iphone/ipad. I keep my music on one computer and not on my work computer, so it is annoying when I plug an iPhone or iPad into the work computer and it automatically opens iTunes.
In iTunes (with the device pugged in) Preferences, disable the 'Open iTunes when device is plugged in' option.

Finally, what happened to the delete function on the Image Capture app? It was so easy - import a bunch of photos into a certain folder, then delete those photos off the device through Image Capture.
It's still there (on my Mac)

Hello. I have a problem. I cannot delete any apps from my ipad. It won't even wiggle when i tap and hold on the icon. There's also no restrictions and passcodes in my settings. My photos on camera roll even get lost once i shut down my ipad. Please help.

The preinstalled apps, those that came as part of the iOS, cannot be deleted and will not shake or provide the black circle-X for deletion.
Others should do that if you touch and hold for a few seconds.
If they are not, do a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider if that appears.

RAW Camera specific import pre-sets

Hi
I am new to Mac/Aperture2 and have tried a search, but would like to know what picture style Aperture assumes when adding pre-set adjustments to RAW conversions. The results look excellent, but I use Natural and the Camera's(Canon 1DMkIIN) default setting is Standard.Is the Picture Style set hidden in the Metadata? Thanks

in-camera sharpening does not affect raw files. aperture applies some sort of sharpening to raw files by default, but on jpegs this doesn't happen.

Running out of internal storage space! Want to make room by deleting photos WITHOUT LOSING MY PHOTOS! Can I delete the Camera Roll yet still keep my photos in Photo Stream?? Will doing this free up ios storage? Does Photo Stream auto delete ever?

Hello, I am out of internal storage on my Iphone 4 ALREADY (Just purchased 3 months ago!). I need to clear up some space so I can do updates and take new photos. I was thinking about backing up my Photo Stream to the icloud and then deleting my Camera Roll.
1.) Is this a terrible idea??? I do NOT want to lose those photos! But I NEED more space on my phone!
2.) Will deleting Camera Roll free up space (a sufficient amount? My Camera Roll is at 4.5 GB)?
3.) Will deleting Camera Roll delete my photos from Photo Stream also? It doesn't seem to.
4.) Does Photo Stream ever automatically delete photos???
5.) Is there anyway I can save the pictures from my phone to my computer??? I can see the photos on my computer when viewing them through Photo Stream, but those are not permanent, correct?
This is one of the most ridiculous, confusing and unnessacary things I've ever known! Why oh why can't we just have a good ol' SD Card??? (My Droid never ever ran out of storage and I had it for 2 years...)
I tried backing up my photos in Itunes, but I don't have a new enough version. I tried downloading a new itunes and it still tells me I don't have the new version.
I have been working on this for 4 hours, its 2:30 am and I am going to bed. I am sorry I had to ask, but I've been searching and searching and just cannot find the answers. Thank you so much for your help!
6.) Also, I haven't been able to find the videos using the Icloud or the Photo Stream either...
7.) Do you have to have your device (pc) synced with icloud to access the info you backed up from iphone?? Like can I show my cousin my photos at her house using her computer by just loggin on??? Or can I only view my contacts, calender, mail, notifications, and such?
8.) Where on the icloud would one find text messages or other saved info??
Thank you so very much for helping me!!!

What I would say is best is to import the videos and photos to your computer so that you can delete camera roll photos with a copy of them in your possession:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4083
In regards to backing up Photo Stream
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486:
Does Photo Stream use my iCloud storage?
"No. Photos uploaded to My Photo Stream or Shared Photo Streams do not count against your iCloud storage."
However, you can do the tedious task of moving your camera roll pictures to photo stream by ensuring photo stream is turned on for your device and take a screen shot of each picture in your camera roll to move it over.
To take a screen shot, just press the "Home Button" and the "Sleep/Wake Button" at the same time while viewing the image.
1.) It's not a terrible idea, it can be tedious though.
2.) Deleting a bunch of photos/videos from a camera roll 4.5GB in size can definitely free up space
3.) Photo Stream photos, as you said, appear to stay upon deleting the photos. (Tested it personally)
4.) Photo Stream has a limit according to: (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4858)
Essentially, it won't erase your photos until you tell it to.
5.) http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4083 (As shown above)
6.) To update iTunes, you must download and then "Run" the download you get off the website. Otherwise you will just have an installer program sitting there not updating iTunes.
7.) You can bring up your Photo Stream pictures anywhere you have Photo Stream capabilities. For a computer at someone else's house, they would have to have the iCloud control panel (http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1455) on their computer and be signed into their Photo Stream and viewing your profile's pictures (http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4379)
8.) On iCloud, you can backup your text messages, but you cannot view them independently on www.icloud.com.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4859
"You get 5 GB of free iCloud storage for:
Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
App data
Home screen and app organization
Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
Ringtones
Visual Voicemails"
Hope some of this information helps!

How do I make a printing pre set in Photoshop CS4?

I use Photoshop CS4 and print on an Epson R360. I often print high resolution images, usually jpeg, onto quality Epson paper with certain settings to get the best result. However I am aware that I can set a "pre set" to achieve this without having to make the print spec choices each time but don't know how to do it. I have checked the Adobe website but cannot find any relevant info that I can understand. Can anyone give me a simple guide how to do this please?

In the PRINT dialog box, [see Pic-1], make all the changes that you want,
then [see Pic-2]
SAVES US, name your preset. When you print again, then you just select that PRESET, and all your print specs for the PRESET should all be there. I hope this helps.

Taking Photo's with the camera and adding as a contact photo

Using my new Palm Pre 2 and took a photo to add as a contact.
The process is simple enough to assign the photo taken to the contact, by lining up within the square and pressing Assign to contact.
However the end result just shows a blurred image of the enlarged photo.
Does anyone know how a picture taken with the camera can be set to view correctly as the contact?
Imported photo's work fine, but that defeats the object, i.e. you see a friend, take their photo but can't add it correctly to your contacts.

That's correct - there is only one camera on the TouchPad, and it was meant for video chatting. The camera app was added by HP as an afterthought when other Homebrew authors started writing their own "Camera" apps.

Problems setting duration for still photos and transitions in iMovie '11

I downloaded iMovie 11 from the Apps Store last night and am trying to make my first movie with it today. I use still photos exclusively.
For most - but not all - I like 5 seconds for photos and for transitions 2 seconds. I do vary this on occasion and so do not check "for all photos' or "for all transitions".
I can't get these settings to work with this version of iMovie. For example, I added a photo (5 sec) then a transition (2 sec) which changed the duration time of the photo - as it should. But when I double clicked the photo, to bring up the inspector window to change the duration of the photo, nothing happened. Then I added another photo. The duration of the first photo increased to 7 seconds and nothing I do seemed to change that.
The time increases seem random: for example, sometimes the time on the still photo increases to 6:29 sec, sometimes to 7 sec.
The duration for the transitions always remains the same - 2 sec; it's the time for the photos that jumps around. And I haven't been able to find a way to get back to 5 sec.
Before posting this, I researched and found an number of earlier posts detailing the same issues.
However, none of these posts had stars to indicate the problem was solved.
Has anyone found a solution or is this a bug that should be reported to Apple?

Interesting!!
I've spent a lot of hours on this too, but I have come up with a different solution perhaps because I like to vary both the image duration and the transition duration in my movies.
Here's my process:
-> Knowing that (a) I want most of the photos to be visible for 5 seconds and most transitions for 2 seconds and (b) that a transition takes half from the photo before and half from the photo after, under File>Project Properties>Photo Duration I chose 7 seconds - each photo will 'lose' a total of 2 seconds from the transitions in front and behind. I did not check either "Applies to all transitions." or "Applies to all photos." - See below for why.
-> I discovered, as you have, that all the photos have to go in before I add any transitions. This was new to me. With all previous versions of iMovie I simply added a photo then a transition then another photo one at a time. I had to fiddle with the timing adjustments, but at least I could fiddle. With this new version of iMovie I can't. Once the transition is in place, I cannot change the duration of the photo.
-> Sometimes, I want a longer or shorter duration for a photo. For example, on photos to which I apply the Ken Burns effect, I often want the image on the screen for a slightly longer time. In this case, I have to use the inspector to change the duration before I add the transitions. So I might set the time for 8 seconds; when both transitions are added, the time for this photo becomes 6 seconds, which is what I want.
-> The same applies if I want a transition to be shorter or longer than 2 seconds. If, for example, I want the duration for a transition to be 1 second, then I have to change the duration on the two linked photos to 5 1/2 seconds.
All of this requires much more prior planning than I am used to with iMovie. Right now, I working with batches of 5 or 6 photos at a time. I don't put a transition on the last photo in the batch until I have added the next group of photos. And things get really tricky if I don't like my original design. If I want to change anything, I have to take out all of the transitions linking the photos I want to work on, do the math, make the changes in the photo durations, then put the transitions back.
Perhaps I am trying to make iMovie do more than it was intended to do, I don't know. Perhaps this problem stems from the fact that I bought just iMovie 11 from the Mac Apps Store and not the entire iLife 11. Don't know that either. But at least I have found a way to make the movie look the way I want it to look.
Thanks for sharing your process. I will use it when the circumstances are right.

Slideshow with individual timing for each photo just does NOT work!

i am in slideshow mode with all the jpegs on top
i go to settings
it has DEFAULT settings for the entire slideshow
it does not say each photo gets its own timing.
the arrows for the transition direction are greyed out
am i the only one who cant get this?
where does it say set a time for each individual photo
at the end of my rope
OT or anyone have you got a way to explain how to get individual timings for each jpeg in a slideshow ( source )

yeah i got it working and it certainly can be done in iphoto
there is so much arduous work one has to do to learn these i lives!!!!
you first send it to DVD
then it lands in iphoto
and you can absolutely do what you said one cant cos i just did it.
what a day all day long a learning curve for sure.
