necetl jsme to cela ale pridam neco malo ze sve zkusenosti

epson stylus pro 3800
papiry epson rady premium
bez ripu

po vytisteni cca 280 A4 byla prrumerna spotreba inkoustu 2,18 ml. cena cartridge je okolo 1100 kc objem je 80ml tedy cca 30 kc za ml inkoustu...

epson stylus pro 7900
papiry epson rady premium (lustr, semogloss, gloss, fine art atd...)
bez ripu

potisteno: 684 formatu A3
spotreba inkoustu: 1375 ml
to je 2,01 ml na A4
jeden ml inkoustu stoji 8,26 kc, naklady na vytisteni jedne A4 jsou tedy 16,6 kc

naklady na tisk hodne zalezi na kontinuite tisku, neb az polovina spotreby tiskarny je dana pozadavkem na cisteni trysek. napriklad ted jsem vytisk 3 fotky 60*90 a spotreboval jsem na to dle tiskarny 25ml inkoustu takze na jednu A4 vychazi spotreba mensi nez 1 ml inkoustu... nicmene pred tiskem je povetsinou treba vycistit trysky a to muze pozrat inkoust i za nekolik stovek......

takze pokud ses ty na 23 kc za inkoust je to velice slusna cena...

co se tyce papiru tak 250 gramovy papir z role vyjde na cca 12,5 na A4...

takze v prumeru A4 vytisknu za 29,1 k tomu je potreba propocist jeste naklady na odpadni nadobku a podobne blbiny.... k tomu elektrina, kalibracni sonda atd...

vzhledem k tomu ze vlastnim kalibracni sondu a slusny monitor, dovolim si tvrdit ze mi z tiskarny leze presno to co chci....

jinak oficialni cena tiskarny je cca 120 tisic, naplneni inkoustem prijde na cca 30 litru


nicmene kvalita tisku z 10 barev je uzasna, obchazel jsem ted nekolik vystav fotografii a nikde jsem nepotkal nic co by bylo lepsi nez to co si vytisknu doma.. posledni co me po strance sisku posadilo na zadek byla vystava tistena na nejakem spesl bambusovem papore ale tam vychazela fotka 60*40 bohate pres 100 euro bez adjustace

Moc, Mikymauz a infantilizace žen

Sem tam se média začnou zajímat o problém sexualizování malých holčiček, a když se tak stane, obvykle se jeden nebo dva reportéři obrátí na mě. Ještě se ale nestalo, že by se zajímali o to, co já považuji za opravdu zajímavý námět článku. Chtějí slyšet o dětských modelkách, holčičkách v soutěžích krásy a dospívajících hollywoodských objevech. Já do této směsice ale vždy chci přidat infantilizaci žen dospělých.

Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit

Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit


again and again :-(





but
Lightroom 5.3 encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit

Re: Problem with Lightroom startup
In reply to Clem Nichols, 3 months ago
My guess is that the preview cache somehow got corrupted. To fix it I would navigate to the folder where your catalog is stored, and move the Lightroom 5 Catalog Previews.lrdta folder to a location outside the installation path like your Desktop.

By default the Previews folder is located at \Users\[user name]\Pictures\Lightroom on a Windows computer, and /Users/[user name]/Pictures/Lightroom on a Mac.

Now start Lightroom, go to the Library Module and select "All Photographs" in the Catalog panel, then click on Library > Previews, and choose the previews option you prefer. This will rebuild the entire preview cache so depending on the number of photos you have it could take a while. Once completed, close Lightroom and restart and you should be fine.

Once you're up and running again you can delete the Previews.lrdta folder you moved to the Desktop.




Error Message: "Lightroom 4.1 encountered an error when reading from its preview cache...

Hi Betsy, welcome to the forum!

Don't panic, it's just the preview cache. Find your catalog on the hard drive - usually in the Pictures folder called Lightroom 4 Catalog.lrcat by default. You'll see a *Previews.lrdata folder there. Rename it and restart LR.

LR will have to rebuild previews, but then everything should be ok. You can let LR rebuild the previews as you need them, or you can select them in Grid view and go to Library menu > Previews > Render Standard Sized previews.

Once you're happy that everything's rebuilt, you can delete ...

error - Nikon D90 mirror stuck


Nikons from that era (D40, D50, D90, etc) have a couple of things that are fairly well known to cause the dreaded 'Shutter Error" and/or locked up mirror.

The first is that the main drive wheel for the shutter/mirror cocking mechanism is dirty or needs lubrication. This wheel can be accessed on many Nikon cameras by removing the floor plate of the camera. It's the red wheel visible through a cutout in the metal chassis. A drop or two of grease (I prefer white lithium) applied to the wheel with a toothpick should do the trick. You want a fairly thick lubricant for this wheel, but just a tiny dab will do. Spread it around evenly over the entire circle of the wheel. (Please note: WD40 is NOT a lubricant. It is a penetrating cleaner and water dispersant.) DO NOT spray grease from a can directly into your camera - it can get in a lot of places you don't want it to go! This video shows how to do the same thing with a D40, but most of the Dx0 models from that time are very similar. (Note: he uses spray directly, but I do not recommend doing so!)

The other problem area is also one that just needs a bit of lubrication but is in an area harder to access. Disassembling the camera to access the area is probably beyond all but the most capable do-it-yourselfers. But there is a trick to getting a drop of machine oil where it needs to be without taking anything apart. Use a straightened paper clip to place one tiny drop of oil on the post that is the pivot around which the shutter and mirror cocking mechanisms rotate. Here is an "exploded" diagram of the area. #208 is the aperture control lever that is visible when your lens is removed.

mirror box diagram

And here is how you reach it without taking anything apart.

Aperture linkage lever
 
GENTLY pull the aperture linkage lever (indicated by the blue arrow) down and hold it while inserting a straightened paper clip with a drop of mineral oil on the end into the area marked by the blue arrow and place the drop on the point where the other end of the aperture lever pivots. I use sewing machine oil for this one. If the camera is held in portrait orientation with the shutter button end up, the oil will lubricate the post that both the shutter and mirror cocking mechanisms also pivot, as they are all in there very close together. The aperture lever is spring-loaded, and you don't want to let it slip out from under your finger and bounce back unimpeded. That could allow the spring to become unseated and then the camera will need to be disassembled to be repaired!

After you've oiled and lubed your camera, cycle the shutter a few times to spread it around a little. If it tests OK you're good to go. If you're still getting the error or stuck mirror, then it's probably time for a trip to a repair shop/service center or, if the cost would be as much or more than the camera is worth, time for another camera.

One golden rule to a great photoshoot is to start with great production. A smooth production puts everyone and everything in the right place for the shoot to succeed long before the shutter button gets pressed. That said, I have some of the best producers in the biz on staff





You don’t need special software; start with a Word or Pages doc. Just keep an eye on formatting. It should be clean, easy to read and align with your brand. Once it’s complete, save a template you can always use to generate this doc for your next shoot, then output a PDF for the production crew and send it out!
