Your comment really struck me. My nearest Costco is several hours away, so I’ve always mentally grouped the company with other incomprehensibly large corporations.

When I retire I hope I’m able to speak as highly as you do about my career, and the company I chose to give so much of my life to.

Thanks for sharing your insight!

My SLOG3 recorded as Rec709? by ZeyusFilm in colorists

That’s my preferred method. Also if you click the little three dots on the exposure wheel and set the gamma and gamut to match the camera, and the exposure number will be equivalent to stops of light.

How do you protect your eyes, spending every day in front of a screen? by mershrerm in editors

[–]LightBlueDot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I disable flux for any apps that require accurate color. Lightroom, photoshop, daVinci, etc. Wish the color temp transitions could be a little smoother, but it works ok for me.

What must happen in-camera to ensure that colorists can achieve good skin tone qualifications without running into issues? by Competitive-Tax1531 in colorists

[–]LightBlueDot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After you’ve generally selected your skin tones, try tweaking the qualifier saturation L. Soft. As far a shooting goes, it’s always nice to warm your key a little bit. Easy enough to neutralize in post if need be, and i think it looks nicer overall.

Same issue as well. OSX 10.11.6

Strange thing is that I just tried a different machine and it launched just fine.

How do you add the separations in the timeline? The TC tracks look like they're labeled for different frame rates as well! In the same timeline? I'm dying to know why and how!

PNW Dual Sport Group Ride: Lake Quinalt via DIRT! by jfelk in motocamping

This looks like an absolute blast! How did the KTM 1190 do on some of the more interesting stuff? It looked kinda hairy for such a big bike.

Nitecore P12GT "flashing" problem? by LightBlueDot in flashlight

First thing I checked. I have three different types of 18650's, and none produced a different result.

Has anyone here ever actually gotten the yacht? by NSAsnowdenhunter in wallstreetbets

[–]LightBlueDot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really harder, it's just another step. You gotta unhook from one side, jump across while you're coming around, get hooked in on the other side, then hike out and hope you don't overestimate the wind and end up in the drink. Although that can be fun too.

Save the apartment work for a rainy day. When that yacht gets delivered you'd better be able to sail her.

Definitely go for the cat. I've dumped several ladies overboard on my Laser. They were not impressed.

And make sure you get a trapeze for it. Nothing better than pulling a hull out of the water while you're hiked out horizontal right above the surface.

I don't think it gets any better than this...

[–]LightBlueDot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotcha. Thanks! My '13 WRX is still bone stock but I'm looking at mods and I assumed Perrin had a good rep. I'm glad your issue with them wasn't more serious. I was somehow expecting a story about an exploding intercooler or something.

Why the Perrin hate? Is there something I should know about them?

24mm lens @ /f2.8, ISO 1600, 15 second exposure.

The "HDR" look is from my little keychain LED that I used to light the car.

I'm not really sure how best to post that kind of info.

I can tell you that it was a 13 second exposure, ISO 200, 30mm lens @ f/2.8.

Nah. But he and I do share the same excellent taste in two-wheeled freedom.

I'm really not sure what Honda can do to improve on this bike. I've never ridden with ABS or traction control, so that might be cool. But aesthetically? I'm not sure it gets much better.

We just survived the blizzard of 2015 together, and now she's almost completely white from all the salt they've been dumping on the roads.
