The A626, HP’s new $179.99 compact printer, invigorates the best of its compact technology with a touch-screen transfusion. The very large LCD is a window into some smart firmware with loads of bells and whistles. Making the most of its three color ink cartridge, it can produce both 4×6 and 5×7 prints.

If you like to have prints from your camera, this is a great little print factory. And you can take it with you, too. Let’s take a closer look.

Tim Jackson has a focus test chart available for download;

“The issue is that of focus. Some folks have found that, particularly when using the kit lens, some of their images are not correctly focused. This problem manifests primarily when shooting close-ups at wide apertures. After doing lots of research and testing, I produced a simple and effective test that quickly shows up these focus problems if they exist on your camera.”

I haven't posted for a few weeks. Partly because I haven't felt inspired enough to do much shooting, and partly because I have been preparing for a sale of my stuff at the Ann Arbor Artisan's market at the end of September. That wasn't something I had thought about until my friend Kate Kehoe convinced me to do it as part of being an Etsy seller http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5264351

So, I have been buying materials, getting prints made, and assembling and matting and packaging my images. It's not hard work, and I really enjoy cutting mats, but it does take up time in the evenings. Hopefully, I'll have a good sale and make back some of the money I spent for materials. I'm trying to price my work at various levels -- 5x7 small matted images for $6, 6x6 matted polaroids for $25, 8x10 matted images for $20 (some are more), and larger pieces matted to 11x14 from $50 to $75, depending on the image. Plus, my cards will be $3 each, or 6 for $15. Nothing really expensive, and maybe I'll be able to sell some of the works that have been piling up in my work area.

I'll also be entering 4 Polaroid images into a show in Hamtramck, MI. One of them is my favorite Polaroid shot.



I hope nobody thinks...
