Hot pixels on the Canon EOS 20D
Tomorrow I’ll be at Canon’s authorized repair-shop to have them look at my 20D. It’s got what I think is hot pixels even at indoors shooting at 1 second shots. Not good. But, being nervous that my camera will be gone without replacement for a while, I am reading up on the subject. There are […]
Selfportrait and RAW handling
At the moment I use Canon’s EOSViewer Utillity and The GIMP for RAW handelling. While I need to figure out how to use The GIMP without getting heaps of artefacts/noise, I get quite often strange artefacts that are white curves that follow the light within a picture. To give an example, look at this selfportrait […]
Epson P-2000
According to DPReview: the P-2000 is a very well-designed, very sophisticated and very desirable addition to any serious digital photographer’s gadget bag. My conclusion from reading their review: drool Good luck to Epson with the RAW support. My 20D is already supported, but it seems they have just a little further to […]
UFRaw

My most probable choice is CompactDrive PD7X (which I’ll buy here unless someone gives me a better offer), but I’m also looking at Archos AV420 that has too […]

Luna
I’ve borrowed my father’s telelens and tripod. Sorry for the awful crop, but I didn’t bring my 2x converter, and when I’d finally got it, the moon had disappeared.

Numbers in the piano
It’s been waaay to long since my last post. I’ve uploaded a couple of images to my Photoblog gallery, but I’ve been to lazy to post them here. Sorry, this will be a batch of them all. Even worse, I’ve taken pictures I’d like to put here, but now they’re all squezed into a disk […]

Vigeland’s “Monolith” damaged beyond repair
Not long after Scream and the Madonna were stolen from the Munch museum, the Monolith by Vigeland is painted black and probably damaged beyond repair by vandals.
