Thanks. I am having trouble when i convert and save my images from raw to another format. i am losing alot of sharpness,and having to regain it in photoshop. The raw images themselves look awesome and need no sharpening. I will probably have to call Canon and see if i'm doing something wrong when i save them.

MM, why are you converting to a different format between RAW and saving in Photoshop? Doesn't your version of Photoshop read the camera RAW file?


Yah, I had a buddy get me CS2 since CS1 won't support the 30d RAW plug-in (that you download from Adobe's site).

The best way I've found to convert a RAW image not supported by a Photoshop program is to download Adobe's DNG converter and convert/copy the images with that. It turns them into Adobe's version of a RAW file (called DNG for digital negative), which is lossless and is supported by older versions of Photoshop. Adobe claims it will support DNG in perpetuity.

I've used DNG and it's great.

i got it figured out while talking to a Canon rep. I didn't know that viewing an image on certain non-photo related programs [like windows picture viewer] will make it look alot worse.

Steve,i have CS2 on 1 puter,but the pc that i use the most has the bare bones elements 2.0. I have been really impressed with Canon's DPP 3.0 anyone else tried it? seems very user friendly for a cyber challenged person such as myself. The above photos were oversharpened, but when i viewed them in another program,they looked right. It was my mistake,but i am still learning. I had no idea that a photo can look good in one program,and soft as heck in another! confused.gif

MM, as for sharpening for the Web, I think what works is what looks best after you've done all you can do and posted it.

I always immediately check how the images look on the forums after I've posted them (sometimes they're a bit different on the forums than in my pp programs) and alter them if I need to.

    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
