That is good to know that corrupted files aren’t very common.

Thank you @nateb and @dfrazer.

First, as @dfrazer mentioned, what makes a macro lens a macro lens is that it can focus on a subject 1:1 at it’s minimum focus distance. But…Read more

@eagleeye, if you’re on the webinar tomorrow night, that would be a great time to drop additional comments in the question area for James to address while you’re there live!

I’m attaching the pdf. We don’t have it all finished with the design. It’s sized to print on legal paper. When we set the printer to “fit” it doesn’t cut anything off. (I just thought of this, could that be were we’re getting the compression…Read more

Fortunately, I am not at the point where I think the equipment makes the beautiful pictures, but I do feel limited- especially as my zoom lens goes up to 55mm only, and I find myself over and over again trying to get a shot of something further that I can’t walk up closer to (i.e. birds, stars and…Read more

I have a lot of food for thought now!

@laura-aome, Thanks for the generator link!

@dfrazer, I totally agree about registering my business name.
Your point about having people referring others to me gave me the idea of perhaps having my name be something like “Brieanns’s Dream…Read more

Thank you for sharing your experience and research!

btw I was able to see your first reply on my email.

I endlessly tweak my designs, and even then am hardly ever completely satisfied with them.

I agree entirely!
Something I learned from @dfrazer is to save copies progressively, so that you can go back to a previous version that you worked on (say the day before yesterday) and glean ideas from the progress you’ve made. It can be encouraging.…Read more

In addition to having a mid-range lens like the 24-105mm, I would highly suggest getting a good wide-angle lens to take advantage of the fact that you have full frame. I used the 17-40mm f/4 for a long time, until I was able to save up for (or more like, get a good…Read more

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

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

Now I understand why you should put the year first! Before I thought that it was strange because that’s not how we normally write dates.

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.

@dfrazer, I’ve seen you on these forums! Any tips?

Thanks so much,
@loganlamar

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? 🙂

Another thing: I noticed in the link that you sent for the…Read more

Hey @joshua_ong! This is a good topic for discussion!

Thanks @frazer-family.

Something similar, though not quite the same, was addressed on this thread.

I especially appreciated @dfrazer’s reply to that thread, which in part addresses this same issue of integrity.

Thanks for the reference. That was a really interesting discussion on s…Read more

I’m not sure if this topic has already been discussed in a previous thread.

@nasa, thank you for the very in depth answers, especially answer two! Are there any resources where I can learn more about analogue-digital conversion, and analogue gain? Here are two more questions I have. : )

1:…Read more

@kina, your gospel-centric perspective is super refreshing! I love how every subject that catches your eye is an object lesson that somehow, some way, points back to Calvary. You can never have too many reminders.

@jamesstaddon I remember Foundations of Photography lesson 1, with its four principles: they…Read more

God is glorified when His will is done. I have my own ideas of how to glorify Him, but the fact of the matter is, because He’s the One that knows best how He can be glorified, then when I have the…Read more

I once heard a preacher ask this very question in context of 1 Corinthians 10:31. What does it mean to bring glory to God (even in mundane things like eating and drinking)? The preacher was saying that it means that in whatever I do, I g…Read more

I know the feeling!! Before I made the switch to Lightroom, it was hard keeping all my pictures organized and I didn’t have a fast post-processing system going. RAW format is a larger file and uses more space, but the editing control and photo quality make it worth it to me.
I use Lightroom Classic CC.

Hm… 200 to 20 in 15 m…Read more

@dfrazer
I shoot in JPEG; I haven’t tried RAW out yet.

I’ve attached one of the photos with no noise reduction added; the amount of noise is so una…Read more

Also, just wanted to mention, changing image Resolution could result in it looking visually blurry on a screen if you happened to “Resample” it when changing the Resolution from 72 to 300. It’s Photoshop’s word for,…Read more

Huh, I’ve never experimented with extension tubes! What have you learned so far?

So far—which isn’t very far, I’ve only used them a couple of times…

First thing: Tripod. Use one. It helps. A lot.
Second thing: You’ll likely be working pretty close to your subject—at least with the lens (50mm 1.8 prime) I was using…Read more

I guess it depends what you mean by cold…

Haha, I was hoping someone from Quebec would chime in on this one, since you guys definitely have experience in this regard! My sister-in-law is Quebecois and she has been disappointed with winter in CT since moving down here when she married my brother, although, to o…Read more
