I'm an enthusiastic amateur or a semi-pro photographer, depending on mood and day of the week. :)

comment Can I save the JPEG preview image that's generated in-camera when I shoot in RAW-only mode?
Nice to know about I suppose, but dcraw -e wins every time on simplicity.

That's a brilliant answer - thanks! I just downloaded dcraw and it worked exactly as you said. (It took me a few minutes to find a 64-bit Windows version but it's here).

comment What causes this sort of RAW file corruption?
@MikeW There's no 'probably' about it - that's exactly what it is.

comment What are neutral density filters and how do I use them to create long exposures in daylight?
Yep, must be a bug. I accepted my answer on 31 August 2011. :)

No, I never accepted your answer in the first place. See my comment on the question: I always intended to answer this myself and I accepted my own answer as soon as I could. Don't know what's given you that impression.

Agreed, and it keeps getting better. Thanks for the upvote!

comment In Connecticut, do employees have rights to photographs of themselves?
I have updated the title though to reflect the specific nature of the question. Otherwise I think plenty of other users will (as I did) click through on the title only to bail out after 3 words of the question.

I take it all back. :)

"In Connecticut specifically" seems a bit too localised for me: the question's going to be irrelevant to the majority of visitors to the site.

comment What is the best way to photograph oil paintings with a film camera?
I agree with the possible duplicate, but I'm not voting to close as this question is much better written than the previous one. I also agree the film angle makes it a slightly different question.

comment How does Photoshop/Lightroom process exposure?
I've read this twice and I'm still finding it quite a confusing question. Could you reword to strip out some of the more discursive parts and focus clearly on your core question?

comment Would This “Flash Diffuser” Be Any Good for My SB700?
Sorry, I've voted to close this as the link is dead so it's impossible to answer.

comment Which photoshop book?
It would help if you could expand the question to tell us what you want to get out of it. Different books suit different people's needs.

comment Broken Canon 28 -135 mm lens
Hi there and welcome to photo.SE! You're unlikely to get helpful answers to this question as it stands for a couple of reasons: you're really asking 3 questions in one; you're not telling us everything we need to know (For example, what's your budget for the repair? What do you want to do with a replacement lens? etc.); and lastly, you're repeating questions that have already been asked. I recommend you follow @mattdm's link for the EF-S question then come back and edit this to make it easier to answer.

comment What program can automatically resize & crop a folder of images to a certain resolution?
I was very hopeful XnConvert might do what you're after but like IrfanView it won't do a centred crop on arbitrary image sizes.

comment LR 3: Preset adds dark vignette, but how?
Download link for that preset is at the foot of this article. It's in the Free Downloads package.

comment How large an image do I need to print a 32″ by 18″ poster at 300 DPI?
Great answer. I've never had a print job for which a high-quality JPEG wasn't perfectly adequate.
