Photography

I know there is a Watermark tab, but you have to pay for the service. Is there another way to do it?

I'm trying to pick a digital camera and all the hype gives me a headache! DSLR, P&S, Raw, Tiff, Jpeg. "amateur," 'prosumer', professional! I got an olympus 5000 as a gift last year and I've won two photo awards; one for nude photography & one for architectural photography. The way people write, you'd think photography is rocket science. Geez. my friend who does covers for fashion magazines said about being a photographer, 'all you need to do is push a button.' I'm looking at a G7 which everybody complains about as not having RAW to the point where it sounds like the biggest sin since Adam & Eve. I can't stand the heavy DSLR cameras. I hear that pro cameras have better components so they'll last for years. I got a film SLR when I was 13 and after 17 years of banging it up through jungles and climbing mountains, it works great. I am on a budget and I'm no into photography to make manufacturer's rich; I do it to take good photos. So can I stick with my G7 P&S choice?

I just spent $40 on photo paper for my photo class, and without even thinking of the sensitivity, i freakin opened the pack and took out all the papers from the package. My room was pretty brightly lit too. The paper looks yellow. Can I still use it, or do I have to spend another butt load of money on more paper?

Warning not a question really.

Ok Im not against it. There are a few occasions I would use it:

1. when my eye sight fades and a diopter/glasses/contacts wont let me anymore

2. if i cant prefocus or do a "focus pull" - so in the event of shooting at speed where the subject wil take a direction unforseen - could be fashion or sports -

3. if i was drunk

4. if im lazy and dont really care about the image

People say why use manual when you have auto focus?

I answer if I spend 2 hours going somewhere, spend an hour setting up lights and maybe props or altering the scene, white balance, measure adjust the light, select the depth and shutter speed (taking into account flash etc) for the correct exposure - after all that why would I let the camera mess it up by using auto focus?

Why would i hand the control of the focus over to the camera?

Is it more artistic than people are?

Does anyone here me?

I want to take a photo for the front side of a mirror, but the camera image is reflecting inside the mirror which I do not want, so what can I do?

In no way is this intended to provoke another digital vs. film debate.

But.

I subscribe to half a dozen photo magazines (paper ones) which feature both digital and film images.

Right now I'm looking at a photo essay done with a Canon 1Ds Mk2 and L lenses (maybe $15,000 worth of gear).

A couple pages later there's another essay, done with an F100, 24-85 and ISO100 transparency film. A $1000 kit, maybe more if the photog shot a lot of film.

The film images blow the digital into the weeds in terms of detail, colour range, dynamic range (no blown highlights) and the most elusive parameter of all -- realism.

(It's not the technique -- both essays are very well shot.)

As I turn the pages of other mags I see this over and over again.

So here's my question. Has digital lowered the technical standards of photography -- dumbed it down?

I love it and if i could work for National Geograpic and travel the world for images I would do it..I have a very good career in sales but I get lost in photography and get asked to photograph people, dogs, weddings, etc.. I don't charge a cent..because I love it. It is truly my passion..but yet I am so amature and so inconsistant...do I need school to make my dream job a reality or can I jwing it on sheer talent, that I and others see and go with people that say to "just get your work out there?"
I wouldn't choose the weddings or dogs..I am more into details of nature...I like abstract detail and letting others see the beauty of nature from a different perspective.

I am a photographer who just graduated from college. I have a degree in Photojournalism but, I'd like to get myself started in Wedding Photography... I was wondering what people would think is way to expensive to pay for a wedding photographer or what is a really good price to pay for??

I know I'll set my own prices and such, but I was just wondering what people really think, since the customers opinion is the most important...

My wedding photographer is offering a pretty penny to create a memory book for me but I feel I've spent so much in photography as it is. Is there someplace where I can get one made for a reasonable price?

P.S.
I love the story book wedding books and zookbinders, but I know they're expensive. Any amount of help would be appreciated.

I know that a person's "shooting" situation determines the camera and lens combo needed. The problem is that I really can't afford a lot of equipment right now but do want to good quality photos.

The situation I am most concerned with is taking photographs during wilderness camping trips. These will be backpacking trips of several days at a time. Light levels will vary from low ligt in heavy dense woodlands to bright sunshine without a speck of shade to be found.

I had a Panasonic DMC-FZ20 for a couple of years and now kick myself for getting rid of it. http://howto.netmorale.com/viewtopic.php?t=303

Looking on ebay and reading literally hundreds of reviews have left me pretty confused to say the least.

Do you have a favorite point and shoot or DSLR that is under $600??

I've had 1 year experience with an OK digital consumer camera and are limited to my town, half-day trips to chicago and occasional vacations to tourist traps (disney, etc.) Keep in mind I'm no professional with tons of equipment and locations, but be constructive in judging me...
