Talk:Hot mirror

message: I have removed the hot mirror on my canon 5D to allow the full light spectrum into the camera.I can take a photo under normal light with surprisingly good fucus results, however; taking indirect photo's via a mirror of an x-ray image off a phospher screen,looses focus.Same housing but different light exposure.Natural light photographs we but x-ray in a pitch dark environment is alway's out of focus even with the plan of focus unchanged. Why does one show up in focus yet the other not? --Genlock 13:19, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I know from using an infrared-converted camera that different wavelengths of light focus to slightly different points, although you can't see this happening through the viewfinder because the viewfinder is transmitting visible light. The camera's optical system isn't calibrated to focus infrared onto the sensor, and so you have to apply a focus offset; I surmise that the same applies to whatever wavelengths you are trying to record. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 18:06, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: You probably want to use Sony SLT camera or NEX body for that purpose. It displays the picture from the sensor - regardless of wavelenghts registered - has "focus peaking" which allows quick, precise focusing. So you'd essentially see what you are focusing at, even if it'd be impossible with naked eye. Similar thing can be done with any camera offering live view, although it'd be more tedious (as you'd need to zoom-in part of the picture without really knowing what's going on around).

message: For a WikiProject Top importance article, this piece is certainly a disappointment. I have no interest in Gomez other than because he ordered Columbian troops to support the UN in the Korean War. So the reference I supplied, the only one in the article, provides some information. But in looking at the un-referenced material, I wonder how this article could last so long without significant effort to reference it properly and re-write with NPOV in mind.

Talk:Avalon Park, Florida

message: For example, the article claims that New Urbanism is "popular".  Maybe it is.  But we need a citation for that fact, or (since it is really an opinion) either leave it out or state it in the form of "According to XXX New Urbanism is popular".  Note that web pages created by the owners association or the management company of the community are not really eliable neutral sources.  Ideally we can point to some independent reliable source, such as a local newspaper.

Talk:What Is Man? (Twain essay)

message: I removed this:
Isaac Asimov apparently had in mind this story when he wrote "... That Thou Art Mindful of Him", since Asimov's title is from the same Bible verse, and two of Asimov's robots debate the same subject.
This has been uncited since 2009 (the tag has been there since 2014, but the edit that put this in is older). While both Twain and Asimov reference the same verse, it's not "apparent" at all that Asimov must have had Twain's essay in mind. The fact that Twain discusses man as a machine, and Asimov literally has robots discussing the nature of humanity, is an interesting parallel, but certainly no proof of influence. The fact that Asimov's title is the other half of the verse (with Twain using the first half) is wonderfully suggestive, but even then the very least we'd need is some kind of source of someone independently noting the parallel if we can't establish author intent outright. 82.95.254.249 (talk) 11:33, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Khalid Mohammed Salih Al Dhuby

message: I reverted this edit.  Legal scholars at Seton Hall University prepared a dozen detailed, methodical studies of the documents the DoD had published about the captives.

I believe we should treat this distinction as significant.  Geo Swan (talk) 00:55, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Cleanup message

message: i) The inclusion of his sexuality in the lead was both unsourced (though true) and unnecessarily weighted. Unlike being a journalist and author, his homosexuality is not what defines him as a notable individual, and hence this does not need to be included in the lead sentence. Whether it needs to be included at all is another discussion altogether, but definitely not in the lead sentence.
ii) All books receive reviews from a variety of perspectives; however, in this case, the vast majority of them were quite positive, and it appears no-one has "questioned" the reporting in the book. Because this is in a biography of living persons, we need to be rock solid, precise, conservative and above all, neutral, in our reporting of facts. Generalisations like the kind I removed were not in line with this.
