Yea I Dennis I find that explorer in W10 is unreliable and glitchy for transfering files if there not on the main drive and will hang or freeze. Have you tried moving them with another program or importing them then move them with that program

Thanks guys unexpected as there are so many good images here.

I host photos on PBase and I received a PM from the photo editor of Coast Magazine requesting the use of a photo I had taken on Port Eynon beach on the Gower in South Wales. I was asked to contact her to arrange a fee, unfortunately that's the only time this has happened... I live in hope...

I sold a couple from PBase John as well, one to a New Zealand University and one to a American Civil war writer for a book.

TJ's Bar in Worcester.

Instead of just leaving them sitting on the computer I thought I'd do something with them for the wife's birthday Tues, a set of 16" x 16" canvas prints of the three pooches.

Just a quick snapLooks better in theflesh.

Baby Blue Eyes.

Congrats Phil.

Well specified, neat and quick - I would  also look at the OM-D range and the Panasonic GF7 which have a great range of (tiny) lenses available which is where the Sony falls down a little.

As  Olympus fan I have to agree with BP to take a look at the Panasonic and OM-D range especially the OM-D E-M10 for smallness, one of these with the epz 14-42 (28-84), 40-150 150 (80-300) al fit into the smalelst messenger bag and still have room fpr a prime lens, the problem with the Sony is once you get past the kit lens there is not really a size advantage as he lenses are quite large DSLR size. Do not worry about quality of images from micro four thirds it is up there with the APS sensor and better in some cases.

Congats and well deserved Korky.

So Glad you are alright Polly which is the main thing.

I'm getting confused here not enoughth information, is it just the NEW card that will not work with the DNG converter or files from your other cards as well? If the former it is a card problem, if the later then sounds like a corrupt file in the dng converter, Also you do not day if you are using the inbuilt converter of CS6 or the standalone one. To the best of my knowledge this  standalone converter works with XP. but needs to have XP service pack 3  installed

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Microsoft® Windows® XP with Service Pack 3, Windows Vista® with Service Pack 2, Windows 7, or Windows 8

I couldn't do without the articulated screen and the tiltable viewfinder on my GX7 ....... I have a wonderful GF1 M4/3 camera without either, I find it very difficult to use now, especially  in bright daylight.

FUJI

Fuji the GX7 is a tilting screen not a articulated one.

New kit always gives your photography a boost Ron and the articulated screen  was the the reason I changed to the E-M5 mk2 ..ENJOY Ron.

Looks like a handy accessory ,nice pics as well BP,

well deserved Fuji the lighting and processing are wonderfull as is the subject

I think its the way it goes 

You buy a camera with a kit lens then you decide to take people so you buy a an 85 prime then thats too long so you buy a 50mm prime then you fancy landscape so you buy a wide angle then macro and on and on it goes before long you have several bodies several lens several flash guns a couple of tripods etc etc 

A pile of dust appears and you sell the lot and buy something lighter, vowing never to get carried away again BUT there is just that lens that you really cant do without 
and the cycle starts again 

I am on my 3rd cycle is this normal ??

YEP,,,been there, talking about just digital I started of with Canon then the Olympus E-system then the Olympus  micro four thirds system.

Then I got  a itch and wondered if I was missing something by not having a dslr again so I invested in a Nikon and four lenses. luckily this time I kept my Olympus just in case and the Nikon stuff has now gone.

I down sized my Oly kit to one body and five lenses, I even sold the dedicated  60mm macro lens, unless you are really into macro they do tend to sit gathering dust and nothing comes close to my 75mm f1.8 for portraits.

Even before I sold the macro lens for the oddclose up  shots I took I found myself just screwing a Sigma double element close up filter on my 40-150mm as yo get a great working distance between the lens and subject.

Well done and well deserved BP. 

Well done Polly.

Great shot well done Mitch.

Brilliant image and a well deserved win Chris.

Nice set Barbara,you are so lucky to have red squirrels,all we have in the Midlands are grey ones.

Very nice but I would have left the drop shadow of it Barbara.

Looks good to me, perhaps you need more RAM ?

Thanks JH, just had a new computer with a inrtel 5 core processer and 8 Gig of ram, it just that the AS program is very processer  hungry.

It's alright for rescuing family snaps for viewing especially those of sentimental value but not up to my standard  so most of those type of shots will still go in the trash bin unless the have sentimental value then I run AS on them..

Thought I would add the finished image after some more processing.It's not a image I would showcase as I think it was to bad a case for anti shake to deal with.
