Dear Bridges,
My worst habit, too many that I get very intimidated when I see all your beautiful photos . But also by being a member of UHH I've learned so much from you good people over the years that I might get up enough courage to send one or two someday !

With respect, we have all seen some photos submitted that are not the greatest. I encourage you to submit your pictures so we can take a look at them and offer some helpful hints to make your photos better. Sometimes it is just one little thing that helps a lot.

Haha. Done that after a long and sweaty hike too.

Not checking the fstop, shutter speed, iso and mode every time I pick the camera up.

Ditto, sadly.
I see you are new to UHH. Welcome aboard. May I suggest you click on Quote Reply before answering. That lets us see who you are addressing your post to. Otherwise, as in this case, we have no idea who you are talking to. It helps a lot to keep the thread going smoothly.

Agree!
Shooting too tight first got me in trouble with Drugstore prints.
They always seemed to loose about 5%...
Then came PP with leveling.
Turns out you need more in the corners of the shot!

Probably my worst habit in photography is over-sharpening and too much saturation in post-processing.

On Canon cameras they have an extended ISO range that you can activate in one of the menus. At the low end it is L, and at the high end it is H. The native ISO range is 100-51,200 on my R5 so this extends it to 50 (L), and 102,400 (H). I always activate it, although I generally try not to go past 12,500 under normal circumstances.

Sorting out my gear for a weekend and leaving my xqd/sd card wallet on the desk. Getting to the destination and only finding cheap16mb sd cards at the local Rexall. 80 tiffs tops.

With respect, what is H in regard to ISO? I have never heard of that setting before.

Thinking that pixels cost money- a bad habit left over from the film days- don't waste any frames- make sure every frame counts.
