I always shoot raw because I want the most amount of information my camera produces to be available to me. JPG is an 8bit format so when the camera converts from sensor data (raw) to JPG a lot of information is lost. To quote a book. "Most cameras allow the photographere to select raw, TIFF...

That did cross my mind, so I was going to harass my friends with my camera and flash a fair bit before I turned up to use it at a wedding. I wouldn't use something I am not comfortable with. I am far more confident in ambient lighting, I am no pro however and have not up-sold myself in any way.

So since I do not have a flash at the moment, can anyone give me any advice regarding what to get and what to look for? I didn't want to spend a huge sum of money but don't want to waste money on poor equipment. So was looking at getting the 430EX II which, in the future, I could use as a...

That is a very good point! And yeah the main photographer is my friend.

Still waiting on information about location so have not had a chance to visit yet.

This is what I was thinking as well. From what little experience I have using flash I have liked the results from a fill flash in the sun. But have generally hated the results in doors but that has been from on camera flashes where control is limited.

I figure I will be doing mostly candid shots but the main photographer was having a meeting with the client yesterday and we are going to have a chat later about what he expects from me. The 6D is a full frame camera, so should be wide enough right? I do have the 24-105L kit lens as well. But...

Hi all, I hope you can help me out with some much needed information. I have been asked, kindly, by a friend to be his second at a wedding at the end of next month. Since I get to take photos and don't have to shoulder all of the responsibility of not ruining every photo of someones very...

Thanks. I posted this on a different forum a while ago and someone PSd a T-rex on to it :) Thank you.

Good luck! I would be interested in seeing the results and hearing about how much it costs and where you got materials from etc.

I did this last year. For a couple of reasons, firstly I had not been anywhere for ages and secondly because I wanted to overcome a moderate amount of shyness. So I read on the internet some blogs about people who have traveling by themselves and things they mentioned such as the fact you...

I love mine, I have the Intous 5 touch, although the touch has been turned off. For normal use I use a mouse but for dodging/burning or digital art is the nuts. Here are some tutorials on getting used to using digital tools such as the wacom, the bulk of this is about digital art but they are...

Two retro shops have turned up in town and one has a TLR, disappointed I haven't seen one in a second hand store yet. I want to grab a bargain :)

Unfortunately not yet. No one round here seems to have medium format film on the shelf so I am awaiting a delivery.

Ive used these before, the prices seem reasonable but I have nothing to compare the quality with really. http://www.ezeframe.co.uk/
