What I can't get my head around or understand is this, I uploaded an image of the statue Johann Struss in Stadpark, Vienna with details of when it was placed there in the public park 1921 and when the original artist died 1935 etc.. and after it was rejected I inquired as to why no resubmit and was told.


"Thank you for your message and sorry for the late reply. A property release from the estate of the original artist of the works would be required for this file to be re-considered."


This was in dec 2008 I uploaded the image and there was already images on istock of the statue at this time and there are more images uploaded accepted by other contributers in the past couple of months. I am contacting those people to ask if they submitted a property release but my guess is they didn't.


If so I think it is all a complete farse by Istock and it leaves me dissapointed in them and their repsonse.

Thanks guys :)

Hi Guys,


I was just wondering about iStock's plans for marketing iStock_Audio. I subscribe to a few creative magazines and the photo side is always being advertised and promoted (free stock photos etc) and it got me thinking . . . is iStock planning something for us audio contributors? :) Can you give us the heads up?


Cheers

Pretty awesome. I am really surprised how well Panasonic GH1 held up compared to other two.


Red cam footage looked somehow dull and lacked contrast in low light shots.

No it wasn't. I still get the same error and "Object reference not set to an instance of an object"

Barney Frank never seems to know what's going on around him in his personal life! Too bad he exhibits that same quality on all the head-in-the-sand political decisions he makes, LOL.

Yeah, it seems to take up to 3-5 days at the moment even for exclusive images. Might be a side-effect of the iStockalypse in Istanbul right now and I hope it will improve again later next week...


And I know the "I've seen too much" feeling right now. I soooo feel in the mood to shot some more this week. But I said to myself that I will not set up any new shoots until I have at least the mass of images processed that I shot during the last three months.


I think I'm getting close to it with my Florida images (68 approved, 9 more in the queue, I think I will get maybe 15-20 more out of it). I hope I'll finish those next week. And then I have to move on to the pics I shot in Canada in August and two shoots I had here in June and September. :-)

with these bugs running around I just suspected lots of people were sick :(

here in far northeast Tarrant county you'll often find a cowboy Christmas--chili-pepper lights, rope & barbed wire wreaths...

good work guy

Awesome EC!

Hey fritz where are ya ? :)

Maybe something like this?

I love the fact that in the normal file listings (search results, browse recent etc) we can hover over files to see a good sized loupe thumbnail.

For me it'd be brilliant if the loupe was available everywhere that files are shown. For example, CN recent files, in our uploads listings, on thumbnails of related files that we link to on the file view page, on the newest uploads bit of the Vetta page etc...

I suppose there could be issues for users with limited bandwidth, but there's already the control panel option to exclude loupe view if needed.

If I remember right, the loupe was available from the small thumbs for the Punctum shortlist files, and it was great to be able to browse through them without loading up each page individually.

Michael: Warum sollte es mehr Downloads geben,bloss, weil man nen anderen Kanister hat?

Because of the difference between the ProPhoto RGB and Adobe RGB perhaps?

All interesting stuff but I think people have drifted from the origonal post by Jung Kang. Lots of things introduce noise/effect noise levels but his question is very specific he wants to know how "shutter speed" is effecting noise level. :)


Please share how shutter speed is effecting noise lavel.

hi here is one from me too

Anyone have a good script font for logos? Im searching for a feminine typeface that is legible, and commercially free, link me up if you find one, thanks.

It al depends on how much you want to spend. For example Calumet have the following:

As long as you stay with UHF you should be Ok - but avoid VHF - there are too many things that interfere with it.


Another thing to consider is a good shotgun microphone that you can point at the speaker but is wired directly to your camera.

try using one only flash

Photomatix isn't free.

Thanks Daniel! Got them all added!
