carob & new camera

e

>my trusty and OLD finepix 1400 finally died, replaced by a finepix a330. although still a simplistic dc, it's an upgrade from the old one with many more pixels that now display imperfections that my old eyes failed to see.

the first photo: a carob natural-edge piece with carved legs (14"x8"x12"). The colors appear a bit washed out on my laptop screen.

>white balance was set to tungsten ... and indexed the ev compensation ... in photoshop (PS) this appeared as the best overall exposure -- and any PS auto adjustments produced crazy results.

wondering how this camera read exposure?

and does any one know how PS might use the camera-generated exposure data?

>Hi e,

I don't know much about digital cameras, but on my monitor the background appears to have a yellow/green cast and the foreground is a bit on the red side. Would this be any closer?

>e, what an absolutely georgous piece!

Laptop screens are not yet up to snuff (IMHO) for true color. Wish I had the piece in front of me to compare, but it looks really good on my monitor.

Did I say I really like that piece? I really, really like it!

>Ooola! E, this is beautiful! I love the three point foot on this one. I don't think I've ever seen a natural edge bowl done with this foot,but I love it.

Very lovely.

Hello Everybody! I figure I've been hanging around WoodCentral for a few years now so I might as well officially post a Bio. I'm Jennifer and I reside in the heart of the Midwest in Indianapolis. You'll usually find me hanging out on the turning side of WoodCentral, but I check the Main forum too. I started woodworking about 25 years ago mostly interested in flatwork; small furniture and other items to use around the home. Then I discovered the lathe and became obsessed with it. I've been turning for about 23 years now. My love and excitement for turning has taken me into the world of teaching and frequent demonstrating. Lots of experimenting with textures, color, burning over the past several years. I've recently begun dabbling in metal clay work and have started incorporating it in to my turnings too. It's another toolbox full of toys! When I'm not turning, I'm hanging out with the love of my life and most honest critic, my husband Clay. In order to keep the lathe spinning and the lights on I spend the other part of my day at an ABC television station directing the evening newscasts.

>>wondering how this camera read exposure?

The link below is the best source I know for digital camera info. They don't always review the cheaper consumer cameras, but you could ask questions about the exposure (or anything else) on the Fuji Talk forum.

What do you want to do in PS with the embedded EXIF data?
