Please post your comments and questions on the separate thread found here.

Should you wish, you can get my Twittering Tweets here - I will generally tweet new Lu-La video content (& other top-of-mind thoughts)  ::)

Today I have added videos and a PDF on various aspects of Colour Management:

- Monitor Calibration
- Photoshop & Lightroom Colour Settings
- Lightroom Export to either PS or Web & Devices
- DNG Camera Profiles

and finally: - an amazingly dense and condensed 28,000 ft view of Colour Management Workflows from Import to Print with an accompanying PDF file for you to identify all aspects of Colour Management that we have or will cover. For me this PDF alone is worth the price of admission to the tutorial - end of plug  ;D

The new Table of Contents v.3, can be read here

I will be adding new video files piecemeal over this weekend and an updated ToC on Monday.

Of note to those who may have purchased the Guide to Image Quality:

I have added a short video on the use of Lens Align for front and back focus adjustments.

I overlooked this little segment in the original series of files that relate to image quality. It has been added to the fifth zip file of the Guide to Image Quality which is identified as a Placeholder.

The video will also be available within the first of the new zip files (c2ps-13.zip) of the full C2PS tutorial and will likely be in place this afternoon.

Today I have added new content to bring the running time of Camera to Print & Screen to just shy of 10 hours...

The new videos are:

- A discussion about Inks, PrintHeads & the archival properties of todays's prints

- A discussion about papers and how to handle the enormous choice. Examples include Photo & Watercolour papers - with & without Optical Brightening Agents (Jeff likes them, Michael does not!)

- A brief look at printing personal snapshots with a PictureMate

- A visit to Andrew Collett's gallery with discussions on printing canvas & face-mounted prints for sale and running a successful commercial gallery

- The techniques involved in printing, spraying, stretching & mounting canvas prints. A close look is taken at creating 'gallery-wrap' edges for canvas. A look at the equipment and processes involved in face-mounting photographs to acrylic and aluminium.

The new Table of Contents (v.9) can be seen here.

If you have been delaying purchase of Camera to Print & Screen until its completion but want to take advantage of the current 25% 'incomplete' discount - you have less than 24 hours to make the jump  :D

OK! The tutorial is complete!

I have uploaded videos on:

- Presentation & Packaging

- Export to Slideshow

- Export to the Web

- Export to iPad

- Export to iPad with Keynote

- Books for further Learning

- MythBusters! The Top Ten Myths of Digital Printing

- Good Images make Good Prints & The Wrap at the Creemore Springs Brewery (their beer is very good!)

Final Table of Contents here.

All of this brings the total running time to a whopping 12 hours 45 minutes - including drinking time.
And if you are thinking of watching it all tonight, the download is 10.6 GB...

This project has taken me two months to organize & shoot and six months of editing. I'm heading for a brew - maybe two. Cheers!
