On the topic of photo storage and editing, I ran across this blog post in an app on my iPad called Photoverse. It details how to use star ratings to thin out a shoot without dumping any photos.

Thanks for sharing this app Dale! I have a lot of research to do! :)
ok 100Teraflops I use a Mac Pro daily for Music and Photography, The Mac Pro is a good beastie but alone it cant do the job, it must be paired up to a good Monitor, IPS panel if possible, I did use apple's but found the Dell's re-produced colour better. When you purchase your DSLR will you shoot RAW or Jpeg, think about it, RAW may be bigger files, but you can keep producing a good quality image from just 1 RAW file, On the subject of a scratch disk try and dedicate a complete disk as scratch.
my MP is set up as follows,
bay 1 :500gb for OS & apps
bay 2 :320gb as Scratch Disk
bays 3 & 4 : both have 1tb hdd's in a raid 1 configuration for music and stuff
All my RAW files & Aperture library are on a WD my book studio 4TB edition in a raid 1 via fw800 giving me 2TB to use, The system is simple and it works well. the big hdd's are all green WD drives. Hdd's are cheap now, but get the biggest you can afford (don't buy at the apple store), I find using Raid 1 I spend less time now backing up. The hardest part of photography is deleting images, you may take 100 shots and find only 2 of them are keepers, but getting rid of blurry, out of focus files will free up a lot of space,
you have had some excellent advice on here so far, and it will be nice to hear how you finally set up your workflow, keep us posted :)
Thanks for recommending the specs of a quality monitor. Your Mac Pro HDD configuration is simple and easy to understand. Are you using striping from OS X or did you set you RAID 1 with only two drives? I agree that it is very hard deleting photos, as I do not delete photos after I take them. I wait a few days or longer, and then decide if they are keepers. However, I take photos of my family etc and occasionally automobiles and landscape. Also, you are right that I have received excellent advice from the forum members. You folks rule! :)
I will keep you all posted. I am thinking that I should buy a Mac Pro soon! From what I have read on this forum, a new Mac Pro is not expected until 4Q 2011 or 2012. :eek: I do not want to wait that long for a stupid processor chipset. :D A few months is optimal, but 6-8 is not feasible. Thanks again for sharing knowledge and swapping ideas!

that was pretty interesting.
I was talking some days ago with a professor @ school who is, i have to admit, the only real mac fan above 30 i know. ;-) well there are certainly some on the boards ,-)
well but what he told me was:
I m only buying apple computers, as they are the best. they are expensive, but anyways. You only live once ;-)
i had to think of that discussion when i read the story. pretty amusing.

Good lord man, your ears! I like my music loud (using 2 floor standing speakers with my iMac) but even the EU's max volume hurts my ears.
Thems my thoughts.

Just changed it up. This is just a portion of an image, I just set it and let it center on the screen (cutting off the top and bottom), and it happened to land at a fairly nice spot. I have no idea what song either, I didn't care. I was actually looking for backgrounds for slides I was working on, and decided to repurpose this one.

No offense, but you should be doing your own research. The idea of writing a research paper is to, you know, research. Asking people on a forum for sources is taking the lazy way out.
Yes, I know. It was quite a lazy move, because as soon as I posted this, I began researching for quite some time.
Regardless, I am still interested in the amazing history of Apple.

I can't believe AT&T still won't unlock iPhones: In the UK, O2 will unlock anyone's contract phone for free (you just need to ask), and a PAYG one for �15 (plus the loss of the free web bolt on you get for the first 12 months).

This is more of a selling advice question than a buying as I can't seem to find anything similar on ebay... but I guess it could be posed as a buying question from another standpoint.
What would a very well kept, nearly mint (no scratches or dents/no hardware issues) Late 2008 MBP 2.53ghz w/9600GT 512mb, Express card Slot, C300 256gb SSD, 4gb RAM and new (14 charge cycles) battery be worth?
Or better yet... what's a reasonable price someone would pay for it? I'm looking to sell mine... been jobless for a while and need to pay rent... :(

I've got T-Mobile, have had them since I got my old Sidekick II. I now have the Sidekick 3. I love the Sidekick but I was disappointed with the Bluetooth support in Sidekick 3. Doesn't let you sync with Address Book. Nor do they allow you to "hop on" to the EDGE network via Bluetooth to your BT-enabled Mac.
I'm hoping they do a firmware update to change this along with iSync support for Sidekick and PPP over BT. That'd be awesome.
T-Mobile is the only real provider that makes sense for deaf people, since they have plans that do unlimited text and data for only $30 a month, without voice plan.

I have problems with Mail after updating but everything else seems fine. It is a pain in the rear though. Mail icon bounces for ages in the dock before opening. Curiously enough though it opens first time on our network at work.

Back in '84 the recording choices were Beta or VHS... :eek:
That would be the source, unfortunately.... ;)
I guess is someone had a Beta Hi-Fi copy on a High Grade Tape with great reception, then you can capture it but need to use some sort of TBC with it.

support extract images with alpha channel from video? If yes, it will be a highlight spot.

Thats basically what Charlie said on his twitter, which is that the exploit doesn't work on 4.3

the process of importing differs for your various formats.
for your flash formats, plug in your camera, your content should mount like an external drive. Drag and drop to where your archiving, ie create a folder and put stuff there, organized how you like. copying the files over will not erase them on the source.
Importing DV tape is covered in the previous post.
VHS has to be digitized first. Then imported from digital master.
make a copy of the copy. Once it's on your computer your footage isn't safe, it's just on your computer. Use an external HD, back-up your material and store it in a separate location from your computer.
if you have a lot of footage you'll probably need an external drive for scratch anyways when editing. In that case, you need two external drives, one for scratch and one for archive.

I think they removed it, but according to Andrew Welch (president of Ambrosia Software), "Everything that was free in the older, free WireTap continues to be free in WireTap Pro. You can use it to your heart's content to record AIFF recordings, and never pay for it." If you use other features, an unregistered message is dubbed over your recordings until you register.
Hey folks! Hex Monkey, could you give a link for this quote? I downloaded wiretap pro, but all the documenatation provided suggests that one can only use it for 30 days for free, regardless of what file type one's using...thanks!

If it was any other store I would say no but Apple are famously accommodating (and probably more so if you've just spent thousands on a Mac Pro).
Then again, if you can afford said thousands, just buy the bluetooth keyboard separately and keep the wired as a spare!
