Could I put myself on the list if there are any spaces left. Thanks

I like shooting lots of different things. Im talking about situations like landscape shots in the day. Situations where until today, unless you were purposefully trying to introduce noise into an image (and im suggesting that isn't what I want to do) there was no earthly reason to use an ISO...

Hi everyone. Does anyone know which is the best ISO to set on a Canon 5D Mark III when light isn't a problem? I always used 100 but on a course my professional photographer said ISO 200 was the best for Canon as well as Nikon now. He said ISO 100 for Canon cameras had been a marketing error and...

Thanks Garry that's really helpful. Much appreciated.

Hello everyone. I'm getting myself a little confused and hope somebody can help. I understand that with a light meter you set the Shutter speed and ISO you'll be using, and then measure the light from whatever source you are using. This then gives you an f number to use to gain a good exposure...

Cheers Geoff, much appreciated.

Enjoying the sunshine at the weekend and thought these two came out quite nicely. Would welcome some feedback.

Interested to know if people like this effect or not...

Hopefully that sorted it?

Hi Jimbob, the latest edition of Langford's Basic Photography might be quite nice, there's an Advanced book too depending on what level she's at. Hope this helps.

Ok well I have to say again it feels like you're just being awkward. I'm not in any camp and I'm very clear about what I'm saying. I don't like getting drawn into these debates as it doesn't really serve any purpose so ill make this my last post. What was said earlier regarding viewing on screen...

I'm sorry but you're being difficult here, there's the entire thread for the OP to understand what's going on, my point was that you shouldn't be telling people they're incorrect when they're not. I'm happy to agree that if you wanted to print the same size then of course that would make a...

That's not true, I'm making it as simple as it can be. You like to talk about the maths and physics, well on the same screen at 100% there would be no difference whatsoever. Of course when you start blowing things up then things change, but to imply that I'm wrong because I'm not talking about...

What PMN said was entirely accurate and it's only by manipulating the question to talk about blowing an image up to equal print size that you could claim he wasn't correct. Viewing at 100% (all things being equal e.g. pixel density, focal length etc..) on screen there would be no difference.
