T410 camera blurry image

Hi!
I am running a T410 with Linux. The camera is detected but the image is out of focus. I thought it may be a Linux driver problem, so I installed Windows 7 in VirtualBox, using USB-pass-through to use the Windows driver for the camera. I was surprised that the image was exactly the same: out of focus.
Note: I have tried various light conditions, distances, etc. The images below are a comparison at the same distance/light of the internal camera, with an external one:
Image with internal camera:

Using an external USB camera:

Anyone has seen this problem?
I know there is an utility called ThinkVantage Communication Utility. Which I can't run on Linux or virtualized. However, as far as I know it has basic image controls (which also work on Linux), but nothing related to focus (and the focus is also afaik fixed).
I am thinking this is faulty hardware. I am trying to avoid wiping my system just to restore the factory image just to watch the same blurry image, specially after the hundred of issues I have found with the camera on the web.

Man, you made me almost scratch the case with a knife looking for a plastic strip. There is none. :-)
Accidentally, while trying to move the "strip" I could not see, I noticed the image quality got fixed (on Linux), but it lasted only while I had my fingers there. Gotcha. If I press the area near the lens against the screen, it gets fixed.
Without pressing image
Pressing the plastic image
So the problem is hardware. Shame on Lenovo, I was expecting a more robust construction. At least I don't see how this could have hapenned on my old T20's. Now looking in detail, loos like the screen frame is not well attached to the rest.
I will contact a service provider :-(

Fix blurry images downloaded from Safari (The semi-easy way)

Hi, I've noticed a couple of people around here have had problems with image quality (blurry images) whenever an image was saved to the camera roll from Safari.
Turns out, there is a simple fix for this!
This fix requires a drawing app such as Brushes (Or any drawing app where you can take an image from your camera roll, and save to your camera roll).
Now, just open the image that is blurry in the selected drawing app.
Notice anything? The image is no longer blurry! Woo!
Now just save the image back to your camera roll, and delete the old blurry image. You won't be needing it anymore.
Problem solved.
(I think opening the picture in the drawing app reduces the size of said picture, making it less blurry. I'll try this the next time I find a blurry image to see the changes in quality. I'll also include a picture guide for those that don't understand how to do this (But would you really need it :P))
Hope this helps all that have this problem!

Like I said, I noticed a lot of people having this problem, so I decided to post this to hold everyone over until the problem is fixed. Maybe this problem will secretly be fixed in the 3.0 update? It certainly is easier and quicker than uploading the blurry photo itself into a program such as Photoshop and editing the dimensions there.

Blurry images question

OK, I have run into a problem troed to solve now I have to ask the ID gods. I have a project that I did which was to edit some text and change some links in an .indd file.
I was sent a pdf to look at first along with t a list of instructions. The pdf looked fine all images nice and crisp, then I was sent the .indd master file for that pdf.
When opened the master .indd file I noticed that there are a few images which are blurry. But looking at the pdf that came from this .indd the pics are fine.
I need to get to the bottom of this as there is no need to re export and save as a new pdf as I see the blurred pics are in the .indd.
Any help here?
R

OK here is a fact, when I do a project I usually get the pacakage folder with all links but this indd did not have a linked image file I just got the ind itself, yet when I opened it I got the missing links message but the images were viewable inside the .indd file the complaint was after I did the edots and resaved that is when the blurry images were noticed But these were in the indd before, so moving on.
I now have got the images in another separate file but the images are not linked. I would think now to have the folder with tall the images in the same foldewr aas the .indd and link ALL images to see it I still see those few that are blurry. I do see that the image it self outside of the indd is NOT blurry. Which leads me to believe whoever imported this image into the indd originally did not optimize correctly.
Am I on the right track?

Blurry images in LR 5.3 Slideshow

I am having a problem with LR 5.3 creating very, very blurry images in a slideshow exported to a 720p mp4. Not all will be blurry, just random. And they are very blurry. Like it did not render the preview. Never had this problem before updating to 5.3.
Here is a screen shot of a blurred one.
And the next image in the slideshow, wich is just fine.
Any ideas?

Bob Somrak, I forgot to turn off the Export Negatives check box.
So I did the Export as Catalog and it came up with 3992 in All Photographs and 3991 in the file totals. So it got rid of the 10 extra pictures. I then had it syncronize the top level folder and it found and imported 10 photos. So I now have 4002 pictures and it is displaying 4002 pictures. 4002 is the total LR said I was supposed to have in the old catalog before I did the export, but it would only display 3992. Unfortunatly, I still have the problem that it thinks the sidecar files are missing. It does not seem to make any difference to anything, so maybe I should just not worry about that.
Thank you very much for your help!
I have two calalogs with family photos in them, I will now see if it will let me merge them.

Camera raw images change colour in adobe bridge

I have photoshop CS4 and import my camera raw images into Adobe Bridge. When I view the thumbnails in bridge my raw images look vibrant and exactly like they appear on the camera but when I go to open them in camera raw edit they change colour and look washed out before I've made any changes. Can anyone help me figure out how to correct this?

What is your camera set to as far as these basic toning settings, as well as any automatic things like DLighting or highlight compression and perhaps any custom curves or whatever that is called for Nikons?
First paragraph - so is mine.
Second paragraph - all other settings are neutral/zeroed/turned off, as per my post to which you responded. That is, no additional tone curves - Active D-Lighting turned OFF (why anyone would let the camera decide what to do do with highlights and shadows is beyond my level of trust) , Jpg compression is Optimal (least possible) et cetera.
Think I now have an explanation for the different displays in ACR (and Bridge) that I have been experiencing. Took a new duplicate Jpg/Raw shot with the in-camera Picture Control set to Neutral. Now, when both the Jpg and .NEF Raw are viewed in ACR, with the ACR Camera profile set to Camera Neutral, they appear, ASAICT, identical. Saved Camera Neutral as the default ACR Camera profile. Now back in Bridge, the images also appear pretty much identical.
I think what was happening previously was that I had failed to save Camera Standard in ACR as the default Camera profile, and it was defaulting to Adobe Standard, and hence it was rendering Raw thumbnails for Bridge to that Camera profile - hence the difference in appearance between the Jpg and Raw in Bridge. Unless I have got it completely wrong, I think my problem is now solved.

Cannot open camera RAW images from Sony DSC-RX100M3 camera. Working on a Mac with Photoshop CS5 and Camera Raw 6.7?

Bruce,
When I made the transition to digital some 8 years ago, I had tremendous help from a number of well documented websites, among which:
http://www.luminous-landscape.com
I think a lot of stuff there to get you seriously going. Another one is:
http://www.computer-darkroom.com
I sold all my film based stuff, except a Nikon F3 and a handful of lenses and a Paterson developing tank.
The Nikon suspiciously smells like foam mirror damping strips chemically decaying.
I sold my enlarger over the internet. The word "enlarger" caused me to be on SpamCops blacklist for a while.
I'm in this since the seventies, and I think you'll be as amazed as I was at the possibilities and control you have. And no more bags with $300 worth of film that's consumed in one shoot.
Jump in both feet! you won't be sorry. And these forums are the best help you can get.
Good luck,
Rob

I shot video on a Panasonic P2 and I'm trying to import the MXF files to Final Cut Pro but when I try to import, the only thing that imports is a blurry image of each clip. There's no audio and no video...how can I import MXF files into Final Cut Pro?

at the end, you say "import preferences", which program are you describing?
So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
vs
using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?
Is there anything i can do in fcp to make this footage more reliable or safer or more stable as i pull remotely from iphoto?
All the footage, and all the libraries to all programs, or on a new pegasus 12tb raid 5 setup fyi.

Blurry Images

Hello, I am using Fireworks 8. When I create a nav bar or
other image, I have an issue with the image being blurry when I
import into Dreamweaver. I have image resolution set to 500 pixels
per inch which seems good enough to me and I am not stretching or
otherwise skewing the image in the table cell I am inserting it
into. I should say that I am new to Fireworks and also that the
images look fine in Fireworks. Thanks in advance.

The problem might be the export settings.
Open the Optimize panel, and then click on the Preview button
at the top
of the document window. Test the image with the various
export settings.
GIF for vector images and text with no gradients. JPEG for
photo images
and gradients. When you like the way the image looks, test in
your
browser again.

Photoshop Elements Help | Processing camera raw image files

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/using/processing-camera-raw-image-files.html

gegjr wrote:
When I selected "Save Image" there is an option to select the size of the JPEG preview. Is there anyway to extract the JPEG and does the JPEG contain the adjustments that were made to the Raw image?
The "Save image" command just saves (really converts) the original raw into another raw format : the DNG format created by Adobe to get a universal raw format instead of a specific raw format for each camera in the range of each camera manufacters... Using that feature is your choice.
And what you see in the bottom line : 8 bits or 16 bits has nothing to do with a preview, it is the choice of 'color depth' for the image the converters sends to the editor.
So, your choice is either :
- to click 'Done' which saves the settings of your conversion (white balance, exposure, clarity...) to a very small 'sidecar' file of the xmp type
- to 'Open' in the editor where you can work with all features of the editor (which include saving the output file in any format - jpeg - psd - tiff - png...

Best in Camera Raw Image settings

Not that the camera model matters, but is there any unique in camera RAW image settings that will improve how the RAW file is interpreted by Aperture?
For example, I shoot with a Nikon D200. I can customize how the camera "Optimizes" the RAW image by adjusting:
1. Image Sharpening
2. Tone Compensation
3. Color Mode
4. Saturation
5. Hue
Does Aperture recognize any of these adjustments or does it just look at the actual RAW data and compensate just for what it thinks the white balance should be?

You don't need to do anything "in camera." Most (if not all) of those settings are ignored by Aperture, because they don't really apply to the RAW files (they are processing settings, and RAW files are effectively "negatives.").
So color space, sharpening, saturation, etc... doesn't matter what they're set to.
Of course, color space affects how the images are named on camera... the Adobe RGB spec mandates an underscore as first character, e.g. MG1005.jpg versis IMG_1005.jpg.

Compressor creates pulsing blurry images on some clips!!

Rendering from ProRes HD to DVD m2v compressor creates pulsing blurry images on some clips every 15 frames! i had had this happen twice on 2 different clip since the last update to 6.0.3 most of the movie is fine but when I get to a certain clip in the movie every 15 frames it becomes very blocky!
Anyone have this issue?
Thanks, mark

I also have the same pulsating pixelation/blur problem. It used to happen occaisionally in the passed, but recently it's been happening a lot. I used to be able to eliminate the problem by (reluctantly) doing a 1-pass, but even that doesn't work anymore. The same pulsating result seems to be there whatever m2v output settings I set. My company has wasted days trying to sort this out.
I never was 100% happy with Compressor - now it's right in the heap for me. I wouldn't recommend it.
Help Apple!
