SUMMARY:Show Your True Colors
DESCRIPTION:Are you sometimes disappointed with the colors that roll out of your home printer? You often hear professional photographers talking about their ‘color managed workflow’\, but what does that mean? And how could it possibly help you? Color management is all about consistency and predictability. We all want our prints to look exactly like the rich saturated images we see on our monitors\, but we all know from bitter experience that this is not always the case. In this session Mike will demonstrate how easy it is to calibrate both monitor and printer\, and illustrate how the process works to improve color output for everyone. \n\n\n\nAre you a member? Log in to view the entire video. Not a member? Join today!\n\nSummary\nThe summary was generated by ai and may contain inaccuracies. \nSpring Classes\, Speakers\, and Color Management \nMike discussed the upcoming spring season of classes\, which begins on January 6th\, and announced that Jeff Bohr\, an experienced speaker and Apple certified support professional\, will be conducting a session on the new features of Sonoma. Mike also mentioned an upcoming presentation by Adam Pratt on January 3rd\, focusing on organizing photo libraries. Chita added that Adam’s book will be offered at a 40% discount on the message board. Mike then presented a keynote on color management\, explaining its importance and complexities\, and how it influences the quality of images. \nColor Management in Digital Imaging Systems \nMike discussed the issue of color management\, particularly in the context of digital imaging systems. They emphasized the importance of assigning numerical values to specific colors to ensure consistency and prevent confusion. They also explained the concept of color management in digital imaging systems\, where devices like monitors and printers create a lookup table of color values. Mike also explained the technical process of color correction\, starting with the standardization of color representation on monitors and how it is applied in applications like Photoshop or Affinity Photo. They assured that the process\, although slightly complex\, makes sense. \nColor Spaces in Photography and Printing \nMike discussed the concept of color spaces in photography and printing. They explained that color spaces are device-independent and limit the range of colors a device can display or print\, with amateur cameras typically using SRGB and professional cameras offering a choice\, such as Adobe RGB. Mike also clarified the term “gamut”\, which is a device-dependent color space. They shared their insights on how to improve color choices when working with digital images\, emphasizing the importance of neutral colors and avoiding distractions. They suggested using blackout blinds\, wearing neutral-colored clothing\, and keeping a neutral desktop wallpaper\, as well as using a monitor hood to separate the screen from the surrounding office environment. Moe was present but did not contribute to the discussion. \nColor Perception and Quality Materials \nMike discussed the complexity of color perception\, explaining how the brain can be deceived by visually identical colors. They emphasized the influence of lighting\, environment\, and the quality of materials used for printing. Mike also pointed out potential issues with papers that use optical brighteners and lignin\, which can affect the longevity of the final product. They stressed the importance of using high-quality inks and papers\, noting that they can be more expensive but will ensure better results. Lastly\, Mike suggested a future discussion on color management in practical applications. \nMonitor Calibration for Accurate Color Representation \nMike discussed the importance of monitor calibration for accurate color representation in photography. They highlighted the use of a colorimeter and spectrophotometer\, emphasizing their affordability and the importance of monitor brightness settings. Mike confirmed the usefulness of monitor calibration for non-printing purposes as long as the monitor can accurately represent color. They also confirmed the software’s ability to adjust color consistency across multiple monitors to the international standard. \nPhotographers’ Printer Calibration Discussion \nMike discussed the importance of printer calibration\, particularly for photographers. They shared their personal experience with a spectrophotometer\, which they found to be expensive and not very useful. Instead\, they recommended using services that offer affordable calibration. They also emphasized the significance of having a printer with more than four colors for better quality output. Mike further explained the process of creating a bespoke profile for a printer using photographic paper and a color swatch\, stressing the need for a clean environment to avoid any marks on the print. \nColor Management and Printing Processes Explained \nMike elaborated on the process of color management in printing\, specifically the use of ICC profiles and rendering intents. They recommended Affinity Photo for color settings management and suggested exploring the Photoshop print setting box for further learning. Mike also clarified the term “print” as the saturation of color and explained two methods of adjusting color rendering in digital printing. They preferred the ‘relative color emit’ method for preserving the original color inside the ‘bucket’ and producing vibrant results. Chita asked about the meaning of “print”\, which Mike explained. \nColor Profiles for Printers and Monitors \nMike gave a presentation on using color profiles for printers and monitors. They explained the difference between generic and custom profiles\, emphasizing the benefits of using custom profiles for improved color accuracy. They also discussed the importance of monitor brightness and the potential issues that can arise from operating system upgrades. Questions from Conrad\, Billy\, and Mark followed\, with Mike providing advice on setting up color profiles for multiple monitors and the challenges of using labs for color correction. \nMakerspace Printer Capabilities Discussion \nThe discussion revolved around the printing capabilities of a local library makerspace’s new printer. Chris inquired about ensuring the reproduction of their photos faithfully\, to which Mike suggested inquiring about the profile of the printer. Mike also recommended discussing with the makerspace about the paper type and its preparation. Fred asked about the capabilities of a color printer with only four color options\, and Mike suggested that even the cheapest printer could benefit from having a profile made for it. Lastly\, Ward asked Mike’s opinion on the quality of laser printing\, to which Mike responded that while it’s simple\, the color quality is not as vibrant as that of a full-color printer.

SUMMARY:A Beginner's Guide to the NMUG Message Board
DESCRIPTION:We value our message board as one of the most important services available to NMUG Members – always there\, day and night\, when you have a hardware or software problem and – almost always – ready to answer them! \nBut we know that some of our members don’t use the message board. We realise that it can look a little complicated if you’re a beginner\, or have limited experience with macOS or iOS – and we want to help! \nThis short session will walk you through the NMUG message board basics\, and explain in plain English how you go about asking a question\, how you might respond to other members and how you set up your preferences. \nWe don’t anticipate the session lasting longer than 30 – 60 minutes\, and it will be our goal to answer ALL the questions you may have\, so be sure you pop this important event in your diary today – We look forward to seeing you there! \n\n\nAre you a member? Log in to view the Meeting. Not a member? Join today!\n\n  \nSummary\nSummary was generated by ai and may contain inaccuracies. \nNMUG Website Access Discussed \nMike guided Dan through the steps of joining the website\, highlighting the importance of logging in and creating a password. The team also discussed accessing a password-protected page\, with further guidance from Mike. Mike emphasized the importance of the process\, explaining that members have full access to the website’s resources\, while non-members can only access limited content. Mike also addressed questions about paying dues and logging in\, and mentioned the possibility of providing assistance to members with login issues. \nWebsite Message Board Design & Functionality \nMike and Dan discussed the design and functionality of their website’s message board. They focused on the structure of the board\, which includes two main group discussions\, website-related topics and general questions\, and the ability to create new topics\, search for previous discussions\, and view recent activity. Dan demonstrated how to reply to a post and navigate through the different threads. The team also discussed the use of a new message board system\, encouraging members to ask questions and be descriptive with titles. They decided not to implement the use of tags for now due to the efficient search function. They also mentioned the inability to ask questions via email and promised to show a shortcut for browsing the site through an RSS feed. \nForum Notification Functionality Discussed \nMike\, Dan\, Chita\, and others discussed the functionality of a submit button and email notifications on a forum. The team addressed user preferences\, including concerns about the volume of emails received. Dan demonstrated how to manage subscriptions\, and Mike emphasized the importance of staying informed via the message board. The team also touched upon the frequency and type of emails being sent out\, the importance of acting quickly in potential scam situations\, and the need to balance notifications with other communications from Nmmugmug. Additionally\, the team discussed posting and notifying in a discussion thread\, using reaction buttons for feedback\, and answering a post from the daily digest or an individual email. Questions related to WhatsApp concerns and a moving emoji feature were also addressed. The group decided to revisit the issue of reducing emails at a later time. \nEmail Login Issues and Site Feature Discussion \nGill faced difficulties logging into his email account on his phone\, leading Dan to suggest that the problem might be due to his old phone model. Chita brought up Mary’s question about how the nickname affects the password\, which Dan clarified that the nickname is essentially the email address and can be used for signing in. Mary expressed her desire to eliminate her nickname to avoid confusion\, leading Dan to offer to change it to her email address on the back end. Kimi Okada questioned the edit message board’s digest information page\, specifically about the ‘digest type’ field and who can view it\, which Dan clarified related to the site’s digest feature. Donna Warnock suggested a feature to sort posts by likes\, which Dan explained would be confusing for users and is not currently possible\, echoed by Mike Kwasniak. Don Peacock pointed out that the ‘special member benefits’ page on the site lacks a login button\, which Dan agreed to add to improve user experience and also mentioned that the icon in question is a standard login icon and not an arrow pointing into a door as it might have appeared. Dan also mentioned that he would add an explanation for those unfamiliar with the icon. \nTeam Work and Technical Concerns \nEd praised the team’s work and raised a concern about the daily digest feature\, suggesting an improvement that was ultimately rejected by Dan and Chita due to its potential length and complexity. Ed also brought up the issue of pass keys\, which are planned for implementation but not yet ready. Roger Johnson raised a question about a link in his email leading him to the wrong site\, which Mike Kwasniak clarified would be resolved by the end of October when the old message board would be paused. Furthermore\, Mike announced that the decision to keep the old board active or fully transition to the new one would be made in a few months. Finally\, there were several audio and muting issues during the meeting\, which affected the clarity of some participants’ questions and answers. \nHow to Review Previous Meeting Videos and Site Usage \nChita asked Dan how to review previous meeting videos\, to which Dan explained the process. Chita then brought up a question from Ward about the functionality of the site when pausing groups’ I/O. Mike Kwasniak admitted he didn’t know the answer and promised to research it. Bob Mckenzie praised the site’s usability and asked about the process for changing his membership status. Dan advised him to use the frequently asked questions section or email the team directly. Afterwards\, Chita helped Bob navigate the site to renew his membership. Various other questions were raised about obtaining meeting replays\, accessing the summary\, and posting to the message board. Dan clarified that the replay and summary can be found on the event page\, while the message board is not the place for these postings. The site also sends an email notification 30 days prior to membership renewal. Finally\, Dan was about to give a tip on subscribing to all events when Chita suggested moving on due to the unrelated questions. Mike then asked listeners to submit further questions about the message board in the chat. \nTechnical Help and Class Clarification Meeting \nIn the meeting\, Dan explained how to subscribe to the calendar for daily updates and clarified that the link leads back to the website or meeting. Mike Kwasniak asked about the classes\, which were clarified to work in a similar way to meetings and be purchaseable. Chita\, Dan\, and Eckart addressed technical issues faced by members\, including login problems\, recommendations for logging in\, finding old classes\, and subscribing to the calendar. They also guided members on how to reach out to them for assistance. Furthermore\, Mike encouraged members to contact him or Dan for further help. The discussion was then posted on the event page for members to see.

SUMMARY:A Shot in the Dark
DESCRIPTION:A brief sojourn away from things Apple on 29 March\, when NMUG Board member Mike Kwasniak discusses his work as a theatre photographer\, and shares some of his images\, recorded in theatres in the UK over the past 40 years. \nIn 1984 Mike worked in marketing in a theatre close to his home in East Anglia\, where management\, who already knew of his work as an avid amateur photographer\, generously offered him the opportunity to photograph one of their productions. Four years later he left the marketing department to pursue a career as a freelance photographer. \nThree years ago\, Covid struck and all theatres closed as the world entered lockdown. Mike used the opportunity to trawl through his vast collection of images and assemble a collection that would ultimately result in him receiving a Fellowship of the internationally recognised Royal Photographic Society. In his presentation he will describe the process of reducing thousands of images to a panel of just twenty one\, and the procedures involved in meeting the exacting standards demanded by the RPS. \n\nMeeting Notes and Links \n\n\nHandouts and downloads are a membership benefit.
