Thanks to everyone for the advice. Here's my situation:
Yes, Mats, it jiggles when I adjust the camera. Bracketing should help some, but my understanding of the HDR process is that you want to get a range of exposures from almost black to totally blown out. My camera will bracket through three exposures, one stop on each side of the setting. That doesn't typically get the span that is recommended for the HDR thing in Photoshop CS2, so I'm still looking at touching and adjusting the camera.
The camera is really just a point and shoot, a Minolta Z3. There are no available shutter release cables, remote controls, or other accessories for remote operation of it. However, my next camera....! ;)
Lastly, the tripod is a $30 wal-mart model. It isn't really so wobbly in the legs, but the main mast of it, where I mount the camera, rotates freely through about a 3 - 4 degree range horizontally. This is due to play in the cheap, plastic parts on it. My short term work around for that is probably to jam juicy fruit gum into the gaps or something.
All of this equipment that I bought was for me to learn the basics on, and I am doing a lot of learning these days. So, there again, my next tripod.... ;)

Yes, it won't be a rejection or a denial either...just a simple RFE. Since both the names on the marriage certificate are different from the applicant (you) and the beneficiary (your wife), USCIS should be able to deduce that it's a mistake.

Interesting. This is my first autofocus camera. Maybe I'm trusting autofocus too much? I'll try again with a smaller aperture and maybe do a manual focus. Maybe it's just a learning curve, but I have this camera with all of this automation and it seems that, more often than not, I'm shooting in manual mode and now considering using manual focus. With my AE-1 and A-1 bodies I rarely used the automated modes. I was hoping the 300D would be better, but it seems that when I use an automated mode I'm not happy with the settings it chooses. Do you folks with the professional cameras use the automated settings very often? How about autofocus?Or do I just need to get better at understanding the automated capabilities and use them properly.
Thanks for the image feedback.

As good as autofocus is, it is still "dumb" - it has no concept of what you WANT in focus. It just hunts down an area with a sufficient contrast gradient and locks onto it. The focus rectangles are only an approximation of the area evaluated by the AF logic, anyway. In fact, the target area is almost twice the size of the marker in your view finder.
So it's not perfect, not foolproof. I almost always am in Av or Tv mode, occasionally M. I have yet to use the automatic modes with the little pictographs. When I know I need control of depth of field, I set the aperture in Av. When I know I need to freeze the action, I set the shutter speed in Tv. Sometimes, M is called for (like shooting a macro closeup with flash).
The "crop factor" (a D60/10D/DRebel sensor that is 62% of a full-frame 35mm film body) only compounds the problem because the things that are out of focus are 1.6 timse bigger and therefore 1.6 times more noticable.
The guy who coined the phrase, "Practice makes perfect" had to have been a photographer. :)

Hi,
Mine is same case, but with same employer, In my case my attorney used below law.PD is done successfully and got GC . But it took nearly 1 year time. I don't think we need to apply new EB2. But anyways talk to experienced lawyer who has done PD earlier.
According to 8 C.F. R. 204.5(e), When a Beneficiary has multiple approved I-140 petitions,
he is entitled to the earliest priority date....

H1 renewal i can understand but you need not apply for h4 renewal if your wife is working on EAD. Because if she wants to come back on h4, she always can and does not need h4 to be renewed now.
did you check with your attorney, if she absolutely has to do h4 renewal.
I understand that H4 Renewal is not really required; but if something happens to our AOS, then I will be on H1 and she willl be out of status and has to go out of country and come back on H4. Its always good to maintain both of our NIV status and also it helps to get 3 year DL renewal etc...

According to your post, according to the agreement between you and company A, you need to pay $2 per hour until the project ends. Why did you stop paying after 4 months of his cut. I guess the project is still going rt. So Company A wants to make sure that project ended. Company A is right. If your project is still going, you need to pay him $2 per hour until it ends.
May I know on what basis you are recommending this. Do you have any legal basis.?

First of all, thanks very much Prashanthi Reddy for answering questions. Could you help me out with this.
I have I-140 approved with more than 180 days with I-485 pending.
I still have valid H1.
Can someone be with their sponsoring employer on H1 and start business on EAD part time.
Once you start working for any employment othen the H1 sponsored company you will loose your H1 status.

Lately, USCIS has started looking into H1B transfers more carefully and giving applicants tough time approving it with all kinds of RFE, read through the forum for others experience, keep that in mind before making your move...I am not trying to scare you though, its just a pointer to whats going on currently.

Hi Folks, I have few questions regarding opening NRE account...
1. Seems most of the banks offer NRE account for NRIs. In general, which bank is better for opening such an account?:confused:
2. Do all the banks which offer NRE accounts offer account services irrespective of which branch I open the account at? e.g., if I open an NRE account say in delhi, can I have access to and get service for the account say in bangalore? Or do I have to go to that particular branch where I opened the account? In this regard, which bank is better?
3. Which bank generally gives better exchange rates?
4. Any pros or cons in opening the NRE account at one bank vs. the other?
Thanks for your replies...
I will only answer # 2, the rest depends upon where you live.
for #2, I hope they are not yet that flexible and allow people to withdraw funds from any branch. The situation in India is not as secure as you see here. What kind of ID will you show if you want to withdraw from other branch? drivers lisence? I am not sure whether that is very secure yet in India. I would suggest to not even have an online access to your accounts and also insist on personal contact with the manager so he/she is aware of how you manage your account. Always try to do banking at only one branch in India. Not to scare you but it is safer. Hackers are not yet very rampant but if it happens then it will be very difficult to trace lost money.
I do have NRE/NRO accounts and none of them have online access. However the manager regularly sends me a statement in text format via email. Also for NRO accounts they issue statements which can be used for filing the income tax in India (make sure you do that). The manage asked whether I need online access and I declined.
If you need higher interest rates on your deposit open a NRO (fixed deposit) account. Your interest (after taxation) is fully repatriable to the US but the principal amount cannot be repatriated. The is useful if you want to do a long term deposit instead of real estate / share markets etc.

i agree with crystal. If you are not yet married, i would advice to get married soon. Once if you plan to jump on EAD, it is not easy to come back to H1. If you apply for h1 extension, you have get it stamped..
ok, what would be my future wife status in case i jump to EAD after bringing her here on H4. i cant add her to 485 unless PD is current
please advice

Assuming I filed for I-485 before the retrogression mess.
Thanks!
A co-worker and I applied together at exactly the same time.
We got approvals for LC and I-140 within weeks of each other.
Now, our PD became current in September 2006, he got approved a few days ago and...I found out I am stuck in the name check shit!
FYI, his name is extremely common and mine is extremely rare (in my entire life, I have never met someone with the same name!), so go figure...:confused: :confused: :confused:

One good news and one bad news. According to the AILA, the Conference committee took out both immigration riders from the H.R. 3043. It means that there will be no increase of the H-1B to $5,830. At the same time, there will be no recapture of EB-3 visa numbers for the Schedule A workers through this legislation.

I did it few months back for my wife from CGI SFO. You should be fine. There ia one thing though. The I-693 medical exam needs your wife's passport number. You could do that only after you receive the new passport. May cause some delay.
