I shot a bunch of stuff but with my daughters graduation last week and the party coming up....no time to even start looking at what I did. I personally have a...
I'm with you on pushing the wrong button. Since I use several different digitals I'm always pushing the wrong ones. Simplicity of FD, I find myself I am more...
... I agree! There has been a lot of discussion recently on theonlinephotographer blog about why no manufacturer is able to bring out a "simple" DSLR... The...
Hi astrangerinthewind, ... That is why I like the 45 point AF on the EOS 1-V. I can place the focus point (mostly) anywhere I want. As long as you know where...
... Nice! One thing that bothers me about digital P&S cameras is that frequently people on the foreground appear to have been "pasted" on to a background (am I...
... If by "pasted" you mean the large depth of field that the small sensors and small apertures of digital P&S cameras produce, then that of course goes away...
You gotta love this statement especially if taken out of context "A smaller aperture in digital photography increases the depth of field because it influences...

Holy! This guy does know little about what he is talking, I sure know better than him about Portrait Photography, in this stage you can even ask me . The dogma...
Can, does the Vivitar S1 90mm F2.5 fit into your portrait lens category?  Jim ... From: Can <prak@...> Subject: Re: [CanonFD] Re: 3D Look with G1 To:...
The rule of the thumb is you want to use 2-3 times focal lenght to long dimesion of the sensor (or film) on the Portrait Photography. Wider lenses than that...
As further comment to Can's observation about women's vanity (can I say that? I just did.) overpowering an impulse to use "good glass" for portraiture: when I...
Thanks Miguel I really missed shooting FD when I moved onto digital. Glad I didn't sell off all my lens. Now that I can shoot FD again my FD lens collection is...
Can - I see you and our digital "expert" have similar expertise ;-) Many, if not most, magazine portraits are shot with much long lenses than 2-3x FL (so much...
 Carl, Can --- Well understood. Neither my wife nor daughter let me take pictures of them. Our dog doesn't care :-)))  BTW, I have both the 85mm f1.8, the...

I love spreading useful discussion of US companies, that have changed some, but maybe too little. I used Kodak in my early years, and went Agfa, Illford, and...
I'm reducing the amount of Canon equipment that I currently own. I have been using Canon cameras since 1976, when my father gave me my first FTb. I soon...
