New Camera / Windows Live Gallery / Silverlight / PhotoSynth.
I got a new camera, its a Canon EOS 400D (EOS Digital Rebel XTi). So I’ve been having a play. I’m no David Bailey by any means so I’ve been experimenting with it and things I do know something about. Tech.
First Windows Live Gallery. This is now my preferred photo management software. I pull photos off cameras with this and let it organise the folders. I use it for tagging my photos and viewing them quickly or using the search function and tags to locate specific photos I want to see or print. I used to to Picasa2 but have now switched, Picasa2 was great and for bulk tagging fantastic, still better than gallery for that, but I only want one of these things on the machine so I dropped it.
Live Gallery has a great built in Flickr uploader that works far better than Flickr’s own, it even sends the tags up so no more lost tags.
