Free Screen Savers!! (Mainly Japan Photos)

newspos...@martinbaileyphotography.com (Martin Bailey) — Thu, 16 Sep 2004 13:31:44 UT

Hi,
I've just created a bunch of screen savers of some of my photos, most
taken with a Canon EOS 10D. The screen savers will auto-update from my
site when changes are made (this feature can be turned off).
Currently there's a generic screen saver with a few photos from all
categories. There are also "Sunrises and Sunsets", "Flowers of Japan",

Kodak HD4

pr...@dejazzd.com (Paul W. Ross) — Wed, 15 Sep 2004 01:02:28 UT

I just picked up a sample roll (12 x) of Kodak's HD4 film in ASA 400.
What can I expect of this? Looks like it might be interesting..
Anybody have any experience with it??

300mm / 2.8 lens recommendation

spampro...@comcast.dot.net — Sat, 11 Sep 2004 19:28:04 UT

I'm thinking about getting a 300mm/f2.8 for my Maxxum 5. Also
planning to get the Digital 7 when it gets here. Obviously, I'd like
to go with a genuine Minolta, but if that's not possible for financial
reasons, who's next on the photo food-chain. Tamron, Sigma, or
Tokina? Anyone else make AF lenses? Thanks.

Minolta Maxxum 4 <-> X700 lenses

kb6...@yahoo.com (Brian Carlin) — Thu, 09 Sep 2004 19:41:17 UT

I have some old lenses for my dead X700.
Noticed Costco is selling a Minolta Maxxum 4 for $200.
Would my lenses work on that camera body?
Could the camera do aperture priority or shutter speed priority with those lenses?

Hi, I'm in Australia and have noticed that I can no longer find

Kodak BW400CN - rejected by Bonusprint

robertml...@yahoo.com (Robert) — Mon, 23 Aug 2004 12:05:45 UT

I have been using Kodak BW400CN black and white film in 35mm. It is
to be processed using the conventional C-41 colour process.
Bonusprint will not put it through their C-41 processor.
Can anyone suggest a film processing company that will handle these
films and who will scan the negatives dirctly to CD?

Antarctica print film

torto...@chejlava.com (tortoise) — Sat, 21 Aug 2004 15:42:01 UT

We are going to Antarctica, South Georgia, and the Falklands in Feb 2005.
Any suggestions on type of print film ( Kodak vs. Fuji) and speed?
I have a Nikon F-100. When we went to Churchill 2 years ago, I used
mainly Kodak Royal Gold 200 and 400 speed films and got wonderful
polar bear pictures. I figured I would do the same this time since it is

Sticking Tamron Adaptall stop-down mechanism

richard1-nos...@richardsfault.com (richardsfault) — Sun, 15 Aug 2004 21:34:07 UT

I had been having problems with over-exposed images on my XG-7, and
discovered rhat the problem was due to the aperture stop-down
mechanism which hold the lens fully open until the shutter is pressed.
At smaller F-stops (16, 22, 32), the aperture sometimes sticks open at
a largers stop, over-exposing the image. The problem does not occur

2 basic technical questions.

First of all let me state the obvious, I'm fairly new to photography.
With that said, here are 2 ares which I am a bit puzzled.
1. I don't understand why anyone would use the aperture priority or
shutter priority selections on the camera. I understand what they are
used for, but it seems to me that the program mode would do the same

Question on Polaroid 35mm Film Made by Agfa

esb...@yahoo.com (eb) — Tue, 03 Aug 2004 19:42:24 UT

I like Agfa consumer 35mm film, but it is hard to find in stores
around me - even most camera stores, and I don't use a quantity
sufficient to justify paying for shipping. The local Wal-Mart now has
Polaroid brand 800 35mm film, which the box notes is made by Agfa. Can
I assume this is the same Agfa film, i.e., of the most updated and
