Not sure what this is, not even sure what type of creature it is.  It didn't move, it seems completely stuck to the rock and I have never seen one before or since.  The photo was take in Raja Ampat in Feb 2013. 

 

Thanks for looking

Samyang 8mm for CUWA

25 September 2012 - 01:46 AM

has anyone tried the samyang 8mm lens for close up wide angle work? the manual apeture should not really be a problem as i will just shut it down to f11 -f16. however the manual focus may be more of an issue however but i assume i can just set it to 1m and let the DOF do the work. has anyone tried this lens for photography? i found a video posted here but it's a bit difficult to judge image quality etc. the canon and sigma lenses are outside my budget so this looks like the best option.

anyone used one or got any images they can post.

Problem with android tablet & RAW files

31 August 2012 - 02:03 PM

We recently bought a Ployer Momo 8 Bird, android tablet in order to view, delete and back up our photos while travelling.

The idea was to use an external card reader to view the photos, delete the dross then transfer to the 32gb microSD in the ext slot.

We have tried numerous RAW viewing apps - Rawvision, Rawdroid and cr2thumbnailer and although they can all view the CR2 files on the USB card reader none of them can copy or delete the files from this external device. The only way we have found to transfer the pics is using ES file manager. This will move, copy and delete but as it does not preview RAW files is not much use.

Once the files are on the 32gb micro SD the RAW apps are still unable to move or delete the files.

As far as we can see the apps have read/write access but it appears this is only for the internal 8gb memory.

Has anyone come across this problem or more importantly know how to solve it? It really is a wonderful device and views the pics really well, just not working as a storage device at the moment.

TIA
