I struggled for ages with this and then I got a tip. Ask yourself, "Do I set shutter speed or depth of field"? One will be more important than the other. The one you pick will be relevent to your subject, Then you can adjust the other to suit. Have the ISO set to auto until you get to grips with...

Try contacting "Little Bennet" and ask who the photographer is !!

You should always try and use these type of cleaners in "Safe Mode". This stops repercussions. To use Safe mode ...... Turn off the pc and restart. Whilst it is rebooting, keep pressing the top F8 key. You will hear a beep, keep tapping until a "Safe Mode" screen apears Now you can safely run...

Thats no problem ......... Use two external hard drives. They are now quite small and have come down a lot in price. Then you can still keep your hard drive pretty much clear

Yes, I tried that.. It just seems that things are too far away to get a precise focus

I find it a little difficult to get the manual focus spot on due to being a bit short sighted. It's either a little over, or a bit under focus. Sometimes I get it correct. Auto focus is a Godsend...I recently discovered that you can get a viewfinder magnifier that slips over the viewfinder. Do...

It would be nice to see the EXIF's on some of these superb images just to see the settings and the type of lenses used. Normally I can download to my PP Program, click on image info and view the settings, but many have lost the EXIF due to the post processing. Is this done on purpose or is it...
