[Photo-SIG] June 28th meeting of the Digital Photography SIG

[Rufus Walker]

Nancy:

If you are looking for a topic I have a suggestion 

Many of the SIG members have Nikon cameras i.e. D 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 100,
200, etc

Have someone explain the parts of the camera or just have a show and tell as
how to use the camera.  Yes I have red the book and I still have many
questions more than can be answered in a 2 hour meting and ther is many more
of us out there with questions

Maybe we should start a SIG for Nikon D (number) cameras

Thanks

Rufus

OK, I've been thinking about what to have for our next meeting.  I was 
inspired by the Focus on SIGs General Meeting of the DMA.

Most of the SIGs are adopting a format similar to the Linux SIG.  That 
is to spend the first half hour to an hour addressing questions by 
people who are new to the technology.  This will be an open discussion 
forum.  I think we should do the same for the Digital Photography SIG.

The next hour would be spent on the topic of the evening.  Anyone who 
would like to volunteer to present on a new technology or whatever topic 
we agree to discuss would happen here.

Any remaining time would be spent on "Show and Tell".  This is the 
opportunity to share projects, or just brag in general.  It would also 
be another opportunity for more specific "High Tech" questions to be 
bantered about.

For the June Meeting I was thinking of doing something on that other way 
of making Digital Photographs, scanning of film prints.  I recently went 
to the graduation exercises for a young friend of mine and noticed there 
were quite a few people in the audience with throwaway 35mm cameras.  
So, how to e-mail or scan such prints for your friends and family.

So for our June 28th meeting at 7:00 pm at Wright State University in 
Room 240 in Allyn Hall, from 7 - 7:30 we will discuss any 
problems/issues people may be having.  Then from 7:30 - 8:30 we will 
have a presentation on Scanning.  I will bring a scanner with me so we 
can look at the various outputs and different resolutions.  Then from 
8:30 - ??? we'll have "Show and Tell" and Open discussion.

See you on June 28th.

Nancy
