I moved right before Christmas so my life has been CRAZY. I did get to catch up on all my sleep new years day, so I’m ready to get back at it!

You’ve got the new studio still to use?

I do! An entire room just for my photo stuff! As soon as my new remote trigger set comes in I’ll be doing a bunch of lighting set ups Strobist style.

Sorry, I’m going to be travelling abroad for a few days, so I can’t drop in.

Happy birthday in advance: :champagne::balloon::partying_face::birthday:

I started pulling a bunch of the recent play raw posts and it’s a fantastic spread full of exercise opportunities. Bright flowers, stormy seas, high contrast, a couple street shots. This is gonna be good.

So far I’ve saved files from @Benja1972, @gadolf, @patdavid, @martin.scharnke, @Thomas_Do, @afre, and @FBulovic.

If any of you want me to drop a shoutout during the stream or share your website let me know!

I’m honoured :blush: … please share what you come up with. :smile:

of course! They’ll all get dropped into their threads right after the show!

I won’t be able to see the live session. Would we be able to access the footage after the fact?

Twitch saves the streams for two weeks so you can watch it on your own time.

I usually download them for my records after, but haven’t been uploading them anywhere else yet.

Hi Bri!

Regarding your live session, if the image you’ve saved is from a Canon PoweShot A3100 IS, I’d ask you to give a brief mention to CHDK developers, whose free software allow Canon point-and-shoot users to have access to otherwise hidden raw files, among many other features and functionality.
Also, if possible, to add a link to CHDK in the video description: http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/CHDK
I wish you luck in your session!

I’ll try to drop in. It will not be to late in the evening here in Europe. If I miss the live show, I 'll definitely watch later. Will be interessting to see what you do to raws that I also worked on :grinning:. Of course I also would feel honored, if you work on one of my files .

How much of the FOSS community here is based in Europe? I can try to schedule these at more convenient times if there’s enough of a demand for it!

@gadolf, I saved the photo of the watermelon and the photo posted in the call for new filmic workflows. Neither one specifically called out the camera make, let me know if either were from that one!

Yes, both were taken with that CHDK hacked camera, thanks.

Which goes to show that low end equipment with lots of dead pixels can take wonderful shots. :sunny: Keep it up @gadolf :+1:.

Nooooo… this was to be a secret between you and me :disappointed:

Why keep it a secret? I love showing people that you can get great shots with any kind of gear!

Thank you everyone who dropped in for the strimz! As soon as I re-up this drink I’ll be dropping the results of what I did into each of their threads! :slight_smile:

This went over really well, so I’m going to do the same thing this Saturday, same time and place! I’ll be pulling new files off the Play Raw tag and I’ll let you know if I use one of yours!

This time I’m going to do it with a fresh install of Raw Therapee instead of darktable and talk a little bit about the differences in the programs, purely from a casual user standpoint.

Awesome! :smiley:
Were you archiving the videos somewhere for later (not sure if Twitch keeps them up for you long term or not). If not I can grab it and we can find a place for it (maybe mirror it on YouTube).
