My daughter and I went for a walk today- I wasn't expecting to do any pictures of her, but I had my camera in my purse. She was oblivious to me being there, so I started taking a few- I think they're some of the best pictures I've ever been able to take of her. She doesn't pose well- very hyper child.

Keep in mind the lighting isn't great because I wasn't expecting to take pictures of her and it was about high noon.

This one, she was looking at a leaf-

This one, she stopped to smell flowers through the fence (I did some color editing)

This one, she perched up on the ledge and was looking off at her uncle- who must have been acting silly

I would like to buy the Cokin P system for my sis as a gift. She just started with landscape photos. Should I ask B&H for specifics such as: adaptor ring, holder, ND filter and Grad ND filter? Is a star filter worth adding as well? When I looked up the list of filter kits a slew of filters came up and I wonder which ones are important for landscape and not so . I am confused and would like to get a kit she will really like. Thank you in advance for any help.

P.S. Although she uses Photoshop, I know she is practicing getting the pic as perfect as possible out of the camera and if using filters does it for her then it makes gift times easier for me. Thank you again

I think the photos I used to take with my old Pentax MG were as good, if not better than the ones I take with a Canon EOS 300D.
Keep in mind that I didn't have a clue what I was doing with either of them.
I did like the manual controls on the pentax though, I feel a bit ovewhelmed by the EOS I think.
Some photographer mates of mine sort of "insisted" that I should buy it a couple of years ago. (One of them also insisted on fondling it right there on the street after I came out of the camera shop... kinky!)
Now I'm wondering if I did the right thing. Maybe a course might help? I did go to one, but it was too basic, even for me. Now I'm housebound for a while until I get better. Yep, I'm raving on again...

Are the bells and whistles over-rated, or is it just me that's over-rated ?

Hello!
I am trying to find how other photographers prefer to shoot there outdoor portraits. When going from scene to scene in say, a park for example, how is your camera set? For example I use Aperture Priority. I use to use Manual Mode. There is also Shutter Priority. And Program Mode. Which do you do?
THANKS GUYS!

I converted my original RAW file to an Exif TIFF in Canon's Digital Photo Professional as my Photoshop does not support .CR2 files. I then edited the image and uploaded it to Flickr. The EXIF data isn't available.

I've been out of the loop for a while. Everything is digital and I'm reluctant to take the plunge. Can DSLRs do time exposures and blurred motion images of running water the same way a SLR and film can? Do I throw all of my filters away if I go digital, which seems like voodoo to me.

As far as I can remember at this time, all high key lighted shots that I have seen, have been on lite/white backgrounds.

Is there a way to do the effect in a forest location, with all the regular trees and boulders that would be found in a forest. I havent actually tried it yet, the high key effect, yet.

In camera stuff???

Just kinda curious.

For now.

Is there a program that can make the resolution of a low quality picture better.

Im interested in a career as a photographer but I am concerned. Is it very competitive career? can I find a lot of jobs easily? does it pay well? etc.

Any other advice will be greatly appreciated thank you!

Lately, I've been getting more and more into photography, and I've noticed that when I shoot, my camera doesn't want to go below f/5.6. (I have a Canon Rebel XT digital camera with the standard lens that came with it - an 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6, I think.. that is what I can read off the lens).

This is particularly frustrating when I'm shooting in dim light - I can only push the shutter speed so high before it gets blackened out (and too low makes most shots - like at a concert with moving people - blurry). I push my ISO as high as I can....

Looking online, I thought maybe it was my lens, and am looking at a couple, including the Canon EF 85 mm f/1.8. Will this lens give me more range in aperture? Or what do I need to do?

I've noticed this quite a bit, but now it's starting to affect my photos more. (This is also the case with my 35 mm Canon Rebel camera, as well).

I don't mind getting new equipment, but I want to make sure I'm not buying something I won't ever need or use. :-)

Looking through the eyepiece, the scratch on the lens is only about 1/2 on the picture, will the pictures have a blur on them, or will part of the picture be scratched, what will this do to the pictures, I haven't had any developed yet??? Please give me an educated guess. Would the scratch be on the mirror or where???

I am used to B&W contact prints from my 8x10 Deardorff and my 12x20 Folmer view cameras. Nice and sharp. Clean and with excellent detail. Rich deep blacks to sparkling whites in prints I do on traditional silver chloride papers.

Have tried a few scans from the negs and had them printed by a few digital labs.

None of the digital prints come close to the contact prints.

What is wrong with digital that it can't match 60 year old technology?

Sometimes people will say "Wow!! How much did your camera cost to do a beautiful picture like that"? I will say (And this reply makes my wife angry) "My camera cost me 50 dollars. I picked it up at a second hand store". (Now, This is after I used a three light set up with a Monte Zucker background and a light meter to make sure I got it all right) I love to see the look on people's face when they think my camera is 50 dollars and I have a 10 dollar lens on it. (Lens 105.....2.8)
