    camera questions and guide

    Its more important that the pixel density be optimized for the sensor size. To dense you go the other direction and induce noise. If you crop alot then yes you will see a difference between 10 and 20 mp but since properly framing your subject is photography 101 it shouldnt be an issue. Don

    No. Dont get caught up on MP. Way to long and drawn out to explain. Your probably looking at the cheapest canons listed. Search CL for a 40d and see whats there in your price range. Don

    camera questions and guide

    No you dont need to spend alot more. For example BH photo has the t1i brand new for $650 shipped comes with everything you will need to get started in dslr photography. Canon online should have the refurbs for a little less and are the same kit. That camera is very good and will probably be more...

    camera questions and guide

    First you need to decide what you want to take pictures of! I only have experience with canon and Leica. Any canon body will take good pictures.

    LIGHTS ON?

    I think there is more to it than time. I can remember when people were blasting their tanks with huge lights and just running them for an hour or so. There was also discussion about flash blasting light for 1000,s of a second. Don

    LIGHTS ON?

    There is more to a photo period than meets the eye. To long you botch up the second part of photosynthesis (photo inhabition). To short and ya mess with the first part of photosynthesis. I cant remember all the details but would be nice if we could get Mojo to elaborate. Don

    CF card readers

    Seems like I have a uncommon issue. Maybe something is wrong with my computer or usb port. Don

    CF card readers

    I dont know what the issue is. My SD card reader is 5 years old. CF die real quick. Camera shop says its the big file size and the nature of the beast, I have my doubts. They convinced me to buy all new high speed CF cards and a new reader but it lasted two months, the cards are fine but the...

    CF card readers

    Here's a question for the camera junkies. What CF card reader would you suggest. Ive owned expensive ones and dirt cheap both only seem to last a month or two and die. I'd like to find one that will last awhile. Thanks Don

    Where to find?

    You can get the forcep at any camera shop that still sells developing supplies like glazers in seattle.

    They look great as do the corals. Try to focus manually to see if that helps with the out of focus. Don

    See what I mean. You dont want this sort of delusional BS floating around in your brain. Krish is our special moderator after that last bout of huffing skimmate he hasn't been right in the head.
