I believe you mean Bahtinov.

comment Are 2 megapixels enough for HD resolution pictures?
I'm downvoting this answer, even though it's well written, and here's why: almost every camera, through Bayer interpolation, gives pictures with the same number of pixel as its sensor. This is commonly accepted. If one talks about a 12MP digital photo we can safely assume it came from a 12MP camera which technically has a 12MP sensor. On the other hand we're talking about resolution but we need to address aspect ratios and image quality as a whole. Interpolation is there with the quality loss it implies, but that's a different issue.

comment How can I get better focus results with my Nikon D90 at a fashion show?
@PavloDyban 3D is a settings affecting the way the AF system chooses which area of the frame to focus on. Continuous, single-servo or auto is instead used to determine whether focus is to be always kept or to be locked as soon as it is attained.

comment Why does my Nikon D5000 stop live view after 30 seconds?
The default behavior for live view is to stop after 30s ONLY if you're not shooting or recording. Otherwise your camera must be seriously broken, or recording is not actually starting.

The OP didn't mention this "No movie" issue.

DSLR video always takes place in live view mode as the mirror needs to be raised for light to continuosly hit the sensor, thus obscuring the viewfinder. This might not be the case in cameras with a translucent mirror, like those from Sony.

comment How do I capture streets and amusement parks at night with a Nikon D40?
I wouldn't suggest using the 35mm 1.8 DX for night photography if the intended subjects are those mentioned by the OP. It's a great lens for most purposes, still it has the worst flare issues of any lens i've tried. Weird green blobs almost always appear when bright "bare" light sources (e.g. streetlamps) are in the frame. Besides that it has no distance scale, which could be very useful for night photography, and the focus ring doesn't stop at infinity.

The second image actually looks much more saturated to me (in firefox, but they look exactly the same using every other program). Sorry I'm spamming the comments, it feels like that's where this kind of reply belongs.

No, it can't be a matter of AdobeRGB. I always and only shoot sRGB and I'm well aware of that. And I checked these particular shots many times also today, they're sRGB right out of camera.

I added some detail at the bottom of the question. It's strange what you say, I have absolutely no problem with tagged or untagged images, using any software except firefox, which only behaves well with the untagged ones.
