Probably not.

I went to a wedding a couple decades ago. The ceilings were 30' high so I thought bounce wouldn't work well and I made a diffuser for the speedlight.

Just see how professional it looks!!!!!!!!

It softened the shadows a bit but did not eliminate them. Have used 15' ceiling bounce and it seems to work well.

If it works for you, don't fix it. (But feel free to experiment to see for yourself -- the paper is card stock so it is stiff enough to hold up by itself. Cost is minimal).

I'm not familiar with Canon but modern cameras do high ISO pretty well so even 30 foot ceilings might be OK. High ISO will help the flash by reducing the load and minimizing any heating with frequent shots. Go to the venue and take some test shots to try it out (or just go to an event early).

I use toilet paper works well.

When I was shooting with film we never had a RAW option. As I emerged into digital, I didn’t care very much for it. Now after 24 years I don’t pay it much mind. Even though my 5D has two separate memory cards, I would develop a headache trying to do RAW photos.

I believe that National Geographic started this trend.

The files would be too large and an opportunity to ”doctor” the image!


Right on. The raw thing seems to be more for amateurs that have the time to play around with their images. I am a photojournalist and do not have time for that nonsense. I know how to shoot, learned in in film.

I shoot full sensor, no sensor cropping. I will do that in post, but I do use the zoom for preliminary cropping as desired.
Usually the rule of thirds, depending on the subject and my feelings/desire.

Just what looks best, even if it breaks the rule(s).


And don't forget leading lines.

Actually it is the difference between professional, serious photographers and rank point and shoot amateurs. Do you remember the Brownie Crowd?

Absolutely true.

My argument is rather the opposite: according to <iframe src="https://data.worldbank.org/share/widget?indicators=NE.EXP.GNFS.ZS&locations=US" width='450' height='300' frameBorder='0' scrolling="no" ></iframe>, the exports market if the US accounts to about 10% of it's GDP... and that are mostly services, like banking software, etc.

"US" cars that are exported to South America are mostly made in Mexico. Dodge, Chrysler and Jeep were purchased by Fiat and are made in Brazil..

So the US is mostly a closed economy, so they stubbornly insist in that *very expensive* outdated system.

Like 110V, it is a huge waste of money... but it is what it is. I've got 25kW input at 400V three phase current at home with just 6mm2 cables (AWG 10). Make the calculation for 110V

Change can be very difficult.

What a bunch of confusing answers. On film depending on size it is determined by the measuring of the diagonal of the film. what matches the diagonal number is a normal lens under that number it is a wide angel lens over that it is a telephoto lens.

On film you measure the diagonal of the film 120,4x5 35mm and so on the metric number closest to the diagonal is your normal lens under that is wide angel over that is your telephoto. for 35mm it wold be 50mm lens for a 120 film it would be if i remember it would be around 80 or 120. I do not know that works on video cameras I just follow manufactures recommendation.

You guys make me laugh you are so parochial. Go to Europe and tell them that you are American. They will ask you where, Canada ,Brazil Mexico? From their wordily point of view they are all Americans. You must be precise and respond with Etas Unie, USA United States of America.
