cPicture is updated to include an updated Picture Check (see http://jurgene.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!ECF9470581AA39EA!205.entry)

 

Are your backups without errors?
Have you ever checked your backups?

You have all your pictures on a CD/DVD or backup drive, but how do you make sure they are actually OK and not broken? Quite often a picture file gets broken because of a faulty drive or storage media and maybe you keep making backups of these broken pictures.

One solution is to view all pictures in fullscreen and check each one. But there is a better way.

The steps are very easy:
Instead of first selecting the pictures, you can now specify the folders/drives directly.

Select "Check pictures" from the start menu.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The samples on http://cpicture.net/Nokton/ are updated with two pictures taken at the infinity distance setting and one panoramic image:

 

f/7.1 1/800s

 

1:1 crop

 

 

f/8 1/800s

 

1:1 crop

 

 

f/8 1/1000s

 

1:1 crop

 

 

First panoramic image using the Nokton:
Using the pano tools, the 'b' parameter used for the barrel distorsion was optimized to a very
low value of -0,001406.

f/6.3 1/640s
