Using a calibration target with a waveform monitor to get the right contrast?

I was wondering if I am using this target correctly with the waveform monitor to achieve the right amount of contrast.

You are doing it kind of wrong.
What you should use that Black /Grey White TOOL  for is to set an exposure at the camera.  (NOT in Post Production..but it does have an application in post)
If your Camera has the Zebras set at 95-100% White...you would point camera at the "TOOL" and adjust exposure so that the zeras display on the white section.  You can not do anything about the black. (It will fall into place from the exposure on the white)
Now the above assumes that as a photographer...you actuall want the white level to photograph as white for the particular shot that you are taking.
Exposure is all about tones.  Black to white thru grey tone actually.  (Forget about color)
Hope this helps but I am happy to expand if you wish.

    actually, unless you take an extra step, the first opened swf will close.  if you want the 2nd to close, the initial receiving lc will send a message to sender that causes the sender to close.

    I bought a new Time Capsule 2Tb. I connected it to my internet router. I manage to set it up as base station but when i try to use it with time machine I always get the message "Check your IP addres"? What am I doing wrong? On my computer I have OSX 10.7.5

    What IP address does the TC have and what IP does the computer have?
    We need more info as we really have no idea what your network looks like.
    Modem router, model, type of broadband?
    TC setup as bridge or router?
    Is the computer getting internet via the TC?
    Are you using wireless or ethernet?
    Have you set IPv6 correctly to local link in the computer on whichever network client is doing the connection?
    Did this work the first time for backup and has now failed? If so simply reboot the TC. It is a constant bug that the TC is lost to the network.

    You're only allowed to authorize 5 devices with your apple id.
    How many have you got authorized?
    Maybe deauthorize one of them.

    The search bar can be very valuable...........
    In using it, I found out other's have had this issue and it likely means you have a 3G iPad?  If you do, go into settings and turn off cellular data, then try to update again and you should be OK........

    We could not complete your iTunes store request. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation. There was an error in the iTunes store. Please try again later.
    New to all this and would really appreciate some help.
    Thanks in advance
    PS: I should say that I have an ITunes account - I have full permissions over the website etc. I am using Powerpress plug in on a wordpress site.

    My guess would be that you've fallen over a glitch in the Store, in which case all you can do is wait a bit and try again, but it is only a guess. Without being able to look at your feed it's not possible to say whether there might be a problem there.

    Andy,
    Unless you use a real time platform, getting extactly 1 ms loop rate
    (or even less) is impossible. It starts getting troublesome at about
    0.1 Hz for standard operating systems.
    I'd tackle your problem with "if i mod 10 == 0 then sleep 1 ms".
    Of
    course this is jerky by design.

    ... Kindly note, I am still learning how to use analytic functions.That doesn't matter; analytic functions won't help in this problem. The aggregate SUM function is all you need.
    But what do you need to GROUP BY? What is each row of the result set going to represent? A placeid? Yes, each row will represent only one placedid, but it's going to be divided further. You want a separate row of output for every placeid and week, so you'll want to GROUP BY placeid and week. You don't want to GROUP BY the raw issuedate; that would put March 3 and March 4 into separate groups. And you don't want to GROUP BY failures; that would mean a row with 3 failures could never be in the same group as a row with 9 failures.
    This gets the output you posted from the sample data you posted:
    SELECT       placeid
    ,             TO_CHAR ( TRUNC (issuedate, 'IW')
                  , 'MM/DD/YYYY'
                ) || ' - '|| TO_CHAR ( TRUNC (issuedate, 'IW') + 6
                                             , 'MM/DD/YYY'
                               )     AS issueperiod
    ,       SUM (failures)                  AS sumfailures
    FROM        temp_one
    GROUP BY  placeid
    ,            TRUNC (issuedate, 'IW')
    ;You could use a sub-query to compute TRUNC (issuedate, 'IW') once. The code would be about as complicated, efficiency probably won't improve noticeably, and the the results would be the same.

    I need help please to find the correcte download so i can my wii-fii work as soon as possible (because my wife is making me crazy, she can't go on Facebook!!!! )
    Thank's for your help,
    Mike

    Use AirPort Utility 5.6 which contains the features you need. It is compatible with Lion as well as Mountain Lion, however, the installer app will refuse to install it on Mountain Lion.
    This dilemma is easily solved though. You simply need to extract the app from the installer package using a package extractor like Pacifist.
    Download Pacifist here: http://www.charlessoft.com/
    Download AirPort Utility 5.6 here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    If you happen to have an archived copy of the AU 5.6 app somewhere, such as a Time Machine backup or equivalent, you can simply restore it or drag the app to your Mountain Lion system's Utilities folder. It will run without complaint. It is only the package installer that is the problem.
    Mountain Lion will not allow you to delete its existing version of AirPort Utility. Just ignore it. It and the older version (which will bear the unique name "AirPort Utility 5.6") can peacefully coexist.
    Note: For those with Leopard or Snow Leopard systems you need AirPort Utility 5.6.1 (this is confusing - a later AirPort Utility version for an earlier OS X version - but it is correct).
    Download AirPort Utility 5.6.1 here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1536

  • I am having problems using mov files imported into a project. I get the message "Not rendered" in the Canvas and clip won't play. Can anyone help?

    I am having problems using mov files imported into a project. I get the message "Not rendered" in the Canvas and clip won't play. Can anyone help?

    When clips won't play without rendering in the Timeline, it usually means that the clip's specs don't match the Sequence settings.
    A .mov file could be made from any number of codecs; the QuickTime Movie designation is merely a container for video files of all kinds.  Since FCE only works with the QuickTime DV codec and the Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC) natively, if your mov files aren't one of those two, you need to convert them PRIOR to importing into your FCE project.
