Our family is going on a vacation to Israel in 6 weeks and I’m thinking that I’d like to get a telephoto lens before we go. I currently have the Canon 70-200mm f/4, but I find that I’m always wishing for a longer zoom for nature etc. I found the Tamron AF 100-400mm F4.5-6.3 Di VC USD – Canon and was wondering if anyone has had any exper…Read more

My sister currently has a DSlR, but is wanting to get a point and shoot camera. She wants something that’s easier to use and for situations where she doesn’t feel like lugging around her DSLR. She’s currently looking into the Panasonic Lumix DC-ZS200/TZ200 and was wondering if anyone has any experience with this camera?

Thankyou for y…Read more

There is a farming company here in Australia that is running a calendar competition that I’m planning on entering. The theme is ‘farming moments’ and the deadline is July 31st. Last week I faced the cold winter mornings we’re having at the moment to capture some lambs playing in the morning sunshine. 🙂 I chose my favourite out of the…Read more

So, this assignment was quite the challenge for me. Number 1 us Australian’s don’t celebrate Thanksgiving and well, number 2 it’s Spring here in Australia right now. 😉 But, despite these two obstacles, I really wanted to attempt the assignment just for fun and to get some practise. Even though I would…Read more

So, I started off with updating Windows. That didn’t solve the problem. So I went and downloaded the x64 version of MSVC. I was then able to open Lightroom and use that without any issues. But I still had error messages popping up for Creative Cloud and I couldn’t access that…Read more

I’ve recently been running into a problem when I’ve been trying to launch Adobe Creative Cloud or Adobe Lightroom Classic. I can’t use the programs at the moment due to this issue. 

It’s been coming up with these error messages when I try to open them. (1st and 2nd attachments)
 
After a bit of research online, it appears as though the o…Read more

This is the error message that pops up when I try to open them.

@lenspirationlydia, thankyou for your comments/suggestions. 🙂 You’re right – keeping an even margin around the image would definitely have looked better. There was something about this design that bothered me, after I had enlarged the text, so perhaps that’s what it was! It was…Read more

Here are the VersePics that the publisher requested for resubmission. I hope that they’re easier to read now. 🙂

This article explains a similar thing, and also specifically says it’s fine to use the fonts in Over for commercial purposes. :…Read more

I’ve been laid up for a couple of weeks due to an injury, so I thought that I would take the time to design a number of VersePics. Normally I would use Photoshop or Illustrator for this type of project, but because I wasn’t able to use my computer, I experimented with an app called ‘Over’. I was really impressed with th…Read more

I understand your frustration! There’s a definite need for more photographers that seek to uphold Godly standards in their art! Lightstock.com can be a good tool, though there’s still quite a few photos to weed through like other stock sites. I have a portfolio on there that you can take a look at, if you’re inter…Read more

Thankyou so much for your help, @ernestf-lloyd, @buddingphotographer, @dfrazer and @jamesstaddon. I r…Read more

Oh, I just was thinking about it, you’re probably looking for the other way around calculation. 🙂

Haha! Glad you cleared that up. I was a bit confused. 😆 So it’s a relief to know that the first calculation was wrong! 🙂

A 24-70 or something similar would be what you will be looking for, as that will be the same effective focal length as what you are used to

That’s good to know, thanks!

So, I’m looking at the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM Lens. htt…Read more

I’m planning on upgrading my camera pretty soon and going full frame. Since I’ve been shooting on a crop sensor camera in the past, I’m going to have to upgrade one of my lenses so that it’s compatible with full frame. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a wide angle, Canon lens that is reasonable quality, but definit…Read more

From my understanding, to a degree: more noise when shooting in low light. https://techforanyone.com/megapixels-dont-matter-cameras/ So it may not be as big an issue for you, if you don’t plan to do much low-light photography!

Ah, ok. That’s good to know.

Sorry, I don’t have experience with this. I think you’re into photography enough that yo…

Thanks for your thoughts on all that!

If I was more into video, I’d probably go with the 90D. It’s modern and fast, though I dislike the small pixel size, and would probably find the 45 focus points annoying.

Ok! So, does a smaller pixel size mean lower quality?

🙂 Because I’m used to only having 9 focus points, 45 sound…Read more

Yes, having 2 memory card slots sounds like a really nice feature. I haven’t had any corrupt on me yet, but from what I hear, it’ll probably happen at some stage.

I can not tell you how amazing the 65 point autofocus system is in the 7D Mark II. Somehow, it’s just better than the 61 points of the 5D Mark III.

I bet! My current camera only has 9 autofocus points, which is pretty restraining. So I’m really looking forward to having more of those to use. 🙂

I was curious as to why you can change the settings on your full frame camera quicker than on your crop sensor camera? And what some of the extra features are? 🙂

Curious, what is the largest print you’ve ever made?

Well, I haven’t actually made that many prints. I’m not sure of the biggest dimensions of the top of my head. But it wasn’t that big and looked fine. I thought that the more megapixels your camera had the higher th…Read more

And thanks for reminding me about Camera Decision. I’m pretty sure I’ve used it in the past, but had totally forgotten about it, so have been using it quite a bit lately! It’s quite handy, since I’m not exactly some high tech, camera comparison person. 🙂

I have to admit that I…Read more

Nice work! I like the perspective you’ve gotten on this shot. Even though the rocky foreground is busy, for some reason the rocks don’t seem to be a distraction like I would’ve expected, but instead work as a sort of leading line to the beautiful mountains! 🙂 There’s also more rocks on one side than the other, but because you can…Read more

I’m wanting to upgrade cameras and am after some suggestions. 🙂 I currently have a Canon 60D, which I bought second hand and have owned for about 6 years. I’m wanting to take my photography to the next level, whether that’s doing portraiture or delving more into landscape and stock photography. I know cameras have advanced a lot since…Read more

In the end I downloaded a free one from Studio Binder It’s pretty simple, but easy to use. The reason I didn’t end up using the LightStock or Lenspiration model releases was because they had their logos on them and the Lenspiration one was specifically for Lenspiration STS assignments. I hope to…Read more

I’m taking some reference photos for an artist and am in need of a model release. I’ve had a look online for a template, but haven’t really found anything suitable. They seem to be very complicated and wordy! 🙂 Does anyone know of any free templates to recommend? Or if I have to make up my own what information to include?
