Yes, agreed, i was locked in the 35mm equivalent mindset. Apply appropriate ratios for your media size

It is rather quite simple. A prime lens is a fixed focal length: e.g. 50mm, 80mm. 150mm, 600mm, these lenses cannot zoom, the focal length is just that.
A 75 - 300mm lens can vary its focal length from 75mm to 300mm and any focal length in between.
A prime lens cannot vary its focal length.


And for the other part, ultra-wide to telephoto, or 14mm to 800mm or more, has to do with the angle of view able to be captured.
Approximate ranges, your opinion may vary.

14-24mm - ultra-wide
24-35mm - wide
35-70mm - normal
70-100mm - short telephoto
100-400mm - telephoto
>400mm - long telephoto

A prime lens will be in one category, a zoom can cross categories.

Layers are what allows images to be combined. There is a base or background layer, and then other layers on top.
For the recent supermoon, I got a picture of the Statue of Liberty, but didn't like the moon with it. I also got a picture with just the moon, that I liked more.

Was able to combibe then in photoshop, to make an image I liked. One image was taken with a Sony A65, and the other with a Canon Sx50. Both are raster images.

First, the little L820 is a nice point&shoot, and you can get batteries anywhere. That's why I have one.

Raster vs. Vector layer.

The pictures you take are raster images.
A vector is a line in mathematics, so a vector layer is a line image, with some form of mathematical instructions telling photoshop where to put it and how to draw it.

For example if you add an arrow pointing to something in your picture, each line of the arrow has a start point and a direction and a length. That's the definition of a vector.

Real photoshop gurus please correct or enhance this description.

Actually, it had eight reactors. according to Wikipedia, the effort necessary to remove them destroyed more of the ship than would be repairable to make a museum ship out of her.

No cable, keep sharing. Seems odd, doesn't it?

And why on a 550$ camera are they not including a usb cable?

I have them but would everyone? They include it with cheaper models!

Is such an app needed? Similar to the way the nex6 needs the sony playmemories program for wifi transfer?

Is there an equivalent to the Canon camera window app for Windows 8.1?

D5200 does not allow you to set the first characters of the filename. If you use the Adobe colorspace, it does place the underscore first, then the letters

There is a file number sequence setting in the menu. The default for the D5200 is to restart the file numbering after events like formatting the card.

Usually the software used to copy from camera or card can rename, or copy pics into a new folder by date to help you keep pictures separated by time.

After they are on the computer, the file Explorer program can be used to separate the duplicate names.

Other programs like acdsee will allow you to rename and resequence the batch.

Good luck

For the Canon sx60, new and changed features mostly addressed perceived shortcomings of the sx50.
Longer and wider zoom functionality.
Better viewfinder, and lcd screen
Newer processor.
More megapixels.
Add wifi, but not gps. Overall, a better camera than before.

For the s600, Nikon did changes to the P520 design. But for me at least, the net result was an overall lesser camera.

If I didn't have the sx50, the sx60 would be on my shortlist.
Why do I like the Canon over the Nikon, the hot shoe, and raw file capability.

Look in the manual under hdr high dynamic range and bracketing. It should be under image enhancements.

An sx50 is a good one. I did some test shots like that of my car from about 200 ft.
At wide angle, 24mm, the car is a dot in the picture.
At 1200mm equivalent, the rear of the car fills the frame.
And with full digital zoom, 4800mm the license plate fills the frame. No wonder what the military and intelligence people do from satellites, when you see that.
