42" Philips LCD. I take the shots with my 12.1 Megapixels Sony Cybershot digital cam straight from the screen and then crop the edges with Adobe Photoshop.

Do you know of a good tutorial for taking pictures of movies? Mine always come out too red.

Thanks.

Default separate category?

Should we move this thread to a separate category (screen caps/images) so that it's easier to find?

Yes, that would definitely help. Depending on how much response the thread gets, it might get stickied.

Thanks!

I'd like to return the compliment by saying that this is a nice idea for a thread. It will be nice if the index is kept up to date at least weekly, and if you could specify offscreen/direct for each set of pics. Maybe label them (OS) and (D) for short?

Example:
Quote:
NEW! Beetlejuice - Set 1 (D) | Set 2 (D)

NEW! Gauntlet, The - Set 1 (OS)

Its not the ideal way to cap screens of course,

but change the white balance on your camera to Tugsten and try again, it should help deal with the red issue.

If possible take RAW pictures using a DSLr then adjust the white balance manually.

Bets of course to get a cheap BD player fro your computer and then screencap.

I did no editing on that frame.

I just paused the frame and snapped a photo when no nipples were in sight. Heh.

There's one of two ways. Either make sure the room is very well lit when you take the photos, or you can use photo editing software to pull out the red.

If your camera has the settings option, as Danyuld mentioned, you can also do that. I just make sure my room is well lit.
