Welcome Silke, sorry for your loss. You are in the most beautiful area in the world...Can't wait to see some pix. Enjoy every day.
I agree. Canon has a factor of 1.6, so 500 divided by 18 mm divided again by 1.6 would be my max exposure time
I recently read a blog of a 500 rule for nighttime photography.. The example was using a 14 mm lens full format camera. The calculation said 500 divided by 14 = the exposure time maximum before the "sky" moved.. Any info?
I'm using elements 14 and raw pix are fine. I agree that the program itself is the culprit. I hope I never see what you're getting. Good luck.
Congratulations, nice picture
Try renting various gear and run them thru every possible setting. I'm sure she'll find one that's comfortable without dropping large $$
Quit using filters long time ago. Always keep a lens hood on and have unfortunately dropped my gear more than once..no damage yet
I understand completely... Thanks
I prefer B&H. Quality is great, next day air on most and free shipping. Never had to return anything, but other reviews claim great service.
Recently retired from 40 years in HVAC industry (heating and cooling).
My real story started in 1968 when I joined the United States Navy as a photographers mate...Plenty of experience shooting around the world with my trusty Pentax 35 mm. Mostly slides. Stateside for final year of active duty was at
The Naval Photo Center in Washington DC.. Most time was in dark rooms and portraits. Got out and hooked up with a local photographic studio shooting High school kids and babies....Got to be tedious and boring. Went to school for HVAC and here I am 40 years later, going full speed ahead in the digital age.. It's fun and challenging and the only downside is the fact that my other half can never find me...I'm out looking for "that" shot...
I'm sure it works in plenty areas. In the USA also... Good joke
Gallagher, thanks for the info. New to Lightroom and had pretty much the same question as Jaack.
Looks like armour plate, nice
