I've been effecting interpolation in the mathematical sense for at
least 50 years. As far as I am concerned interpolation means the
determination of the value at a point on the basis of the values at
two or more related points. I could express that more rigorously but
it would take too long.

They own a lot more than tobacco businesses. Phillip Morris owns Kraft
Foods - that advertising is what they would likely leverage.

AT the time they didn't own Kraft. The products advertised were
tobacco.

Well, I think the names are rather self-explanatory.
- date the file was originally created
- date the content of the file was last modified (although not all
applications set this date correctly)
- date the content of the file was last accessed
- data item "Date Picture Taken" as stored in the EXIF header of a JPEG
His camera should have set all 4 values when the original file was
created on the memory card.

Which of those dates he is viewing in Windows Explorer (WE) is still
everyone's guess. WE never says plain "Date" but it is always specific
about "Modified"/"Created"/... regardless if you are looking at the file
details in the side bar or at the file properties in the popup dialog or
the column headers in the "Details" view mode.

Definitely not... the file was "originally created" on the camera
storage, so this time would be the creation or modification date (which
are identical or very close) of the file on the flash card. But the
Windows "creation date" is the date the file was put on the device where
it resides. Typically, for a picture on your disk this is later than the
modification date (since this is the time the file was transferred from
the camera or card, while the modification date is the time the picture
was taken). In other words the "creation" date is associated to the
container (and so is the "last access" date) while the "modification"
one is usually associated with the contents.

This normally done by the file system, not by applications...

Except that be default the Windows explorer shows the "last modified"
and that few people know that can have it display something else.

Tim Conway - old - (sun and hay bales) Nice composition, The hazy
look works for me.

Bret Douglas - blue - This is an example where technique distracts and
dominates. All I can think of is "How did he do that?". It's a great
demonstration of whatever technique was used, but the end impression
is that its an exercise in special effects and not photography.

SavageDuck - Red Sky - Great image. I'm torn on the cropping, though.
Should the fence be in or out? I think I'd take it out because any
element of a composition that competes with the overall composition is
a distraction. Nicely framed, too.

Alan Browne - (filters) - Precise and pure, but too sterile.

On the others...If post-processing filters are to be used, a light
touch is usually better than a heavy application. The photo itself
has to come through.

Except the ones in the G1 and GH1 are BETTER than the cheap optical
viewfinders in the 4/3rds cameras, if focusing manually is your goal.

If you want to show the colors, do a few things.

First off, get rid of the background. You can use PS or you can shoot
it again with a plain background.

Second, move in and get closer. Get rid of the table cloth and
everything else that isn't relevant (and colorful). Crop it in
closer.

Finally, play with the lighting to make the colors POP off of the page.

Courtesy of our Canadian friend, the new mandate is "The Road Less
Travelled." The due date for this mandate is July 19th, 2009. I had to
extend the due date a bit to accomodate my work and vacation schedule, but
it'll give us more time to shoot some originals rather than submitting
archive shots. So please avoid the archive shots for this one!

The photo in the gallery is from Southern Utah, taken shortly before the

I found the free utility 'Photorec'. Did the trick and managed to
recover all photos and video from this card. I have now reformatted
the card using the Samsung, and the card is functioning as expected.

Out of curiosity, what operating system are you using on your PC, and
what applications/utilities did you use initially to try to read the card
before using PhotoRec?

He's on Google, but it's your news client that's also broken, top poster.

That's something that I'll never understand. Why people would pay more for
compromised photography gear that prevents them from getting 70% of their
shots because they're busy swapping lenses, can't use fill-flash outdoors
because their slow-sync focal-plane shutters prevent it, can't use them for
hand-held available-light macro photography because none of their lenses
can provide enough DOF, can't frame and focus in dim light because their
OVF image can't be electronically amplified, finding out days later that
all their shots are ruined because of crud on their sensor, losing shots
because of badly designed auto-exposure system and they can't see the
blown-out lights and darks in a real-time preview in their viewfinder
before they even press the shutter, not being allowed into 80% of all
public events and buildings because their camera is so obnoxiously loud and
intrusive. But then ... they pays their money and takes their greatly
reduced chances with their severely limited photography opportunities. I'd
rather have a camera that can be used anywhere at a moment's notice under
the widest variety of conditions without all the above-mentioned, real, and
huge set of drawbacks. I'd rather not have to fumble around being some
pretentious gear-head. Some people mistakenly and misguidedly think their
trying to be a gear-head makes them into a photographer. Content trumps
quality every time if you are the silliest worried about very minor quality
issue differences. I capture content worth seeing when using any camera, if
that camera can be used when needed that is. I reject all those that slow
or weigh me down or prevent me from getting the shots I need and want
because I'm too busy trying to swap lenses or having to put that heavy gear
on a cumbersome and expensive tripod to try to hold it steady enough to
even use that overpriced, poorly figured, monster hunk of glass. That's way
too much compromise for me just to get to use a couple of extra steps of
ISO. Big deal, my longer zoom lens reach at widest aperture easily makes up
for that pittance of difference. It's not even a compromise.

What a shock.

Can we expect to see any of your amazing P&S shots any time soon?
