I just got my first DSLR (Nikon D40x) and have been shooting like mad! I agree with Scott's comments that many people want to improve their photo-TAKING skills just as much as their photo-editing skills. I, for one, would like to get the best possible image from my camera and lens because that just means less tweaking later. In a perfect world, my photos would come finished directly from the camera, and improved camera skills is the only way to get there!

Michael to use the live preview on the 40D you just hit the set button in the middle of the dial to activate it. The mirror flips up and the screen turns on. Now it is a useless feature for professionals because it doesn't show exposure well but cool if you take a photo above you head. You also have to manual focus and it shows a little zoomed part of the screen to show if you have it in focus. Auto focus is available but it flips the mirror down focuses the flips the mirror back up to turn on live view. A workout for you camera that will reduce it's life. Hey guys,

However, I noticed that you mentioned my question in the interview with Rick, but then never got around to actually asking it! Any chance it could be covered in a later show, please? Many thanks! Great show again, guys!

I currently use lightroom and PS but the DXO site doesnt really talk to this. Thanks and keep up the great show JPO Hi guys,
