Greetings from the Delhi Airport!

[GoingUp]

Howdy everyone. Just got done with my trip to Nepal. Shot 22gigs worth of photos. Looking forward to sharing them with all of you. Now I just need to get my hands on CS3 to edit the 40D raw files.

 

[Aharami]

holy crap. 22gigs! how'd you like Nepal? I hear it's absolutely beautiful there. Cousin's uncle (on his mother's side) lives in Nepal and he goes there every time he goes back to India

TIGHT AWESOME!!!

I hope you have them all spread out on 2 gig cards so if one craps out you don't lose everything ><

 

[randomlinh]

the real question is how many of the 22GB are keepers 😉

Welcome back 🙂

You don't really want CS3 at this point because it doesn't handle RAW files too well (read: it handles them one by one). You'll probably want something that can display your RAW files as a library, like Bibble, Capture One, Lightroom, Aperture.

2GB cards? You're insane 😉

If you're shooting RAW on a newer (10MP+) camera, 4GB cards at minimum; I have a couple 8GB cards for my D300. I don't like swapping cards after taking <100 pictures.

22 gigabytes of snapshots, or 22 gigabytes of thoughtfully composed images?

Well I'm still here due to my 14 hour layover. As an added bonus, I contracted some sort of food poisoning, and have spent the last 6 hours running to the bathroom. Just got done with a visit from a doctor who gave me some meds, so lets hope it all works out.

22gigs is everything. Attempted artistic shots, random crap to help me remember the trek and attempted panoramas.

I tried a 50 shot panorama at 200mm of Annapurna 3, so we'll see if I missed a square or if it will all stitch together. Stay tuned.

K100D - 6 MP FTW 😉 I get ~ 180 shots per card =)

Have a safe trip back! I flew through Delhi a few years back...get a few Cuban cigars to pass the time 😉 Hopefully that massive pano will work out....but you will need some serious supercomputer to piece it together at full resolution. Can't wait to see your pics!

It took a while to finish but I didn't have any problem putting together a stitch of 46 shots (6 mp each) on my relatively low end Sempron 2.2Ghz computer with 2 GB of RAM.

Trying to dig up software to edit the 40D pics right now in RAW.... I have 4 gigs of ram and an Athlon 5000+ 🙂
