Marc Crowther replied to Lauren's discussion 'Photography Student. Opinions on what camera to purchase?' in the group General Photo Discussion
D90's are nice, but the reason I was put off of grabbing a Nikon was cost of the body. Don't let that sway you though - they're a fantastic camera!
I also checked out the cost of lenses and even though they appeared to have more of a…
Marc Crowther replied to John Milbank's discussion 'Fair deals for photographers' in the group General Photo Discussion
Interesting...and understandable why he'd be annoyed. Now I have to start reading it all!
Marc Crowther replied to Chadwiko's discussion 'Travelling - what gear do you take?' in the group General Photo Discussion
I'd think you could go smaller again. Why take 3 lenses when you could take 2? My kit would be my body, 50mm f/1.8, 18-200mm and 430exII.
The 18-200 is (at a guess) roughly the same size as your 70-200, and between that and the 50mm, it removes…

Its funny I just wrote a reply on another forum about the same topic!
Much of it depends shutter speed and aperture that you require for a given scene.
- For landscape shots, even in poor light, I tend to shoot at iso100 with small aperture and long…
John Bennett replied to Marc Crowther's discussion 'What ISO do you use the most (in given lighting situations)?' in the group General Photo Discussion
I shoot mainly at 400 but occasionally I do use 800 especially with my 400mm lens as it is 600mm on the digital in lower light situations and late in the afternoon at rodeos to stop the action. I do a lot of wheelchair racing action and as my Pentax…

Thanks for the feedback Sue. It's appreciated.
Eventually I'll get around to posting some of the shots I've done at different settings. I like seeing actual evidence of things so it'll be interesting to do the experimenting this…

I'm still shooting mostly at ISO 100, but am experimenting with different ISO's this weekend to see how badly the noise affects the shots.
I recall now that he mentioned that there's little noise at 100, but noise increases as ISO…

Thanks Mark and Sue for your valuable replies to the question. I am new into phtography and trying to come to terms with f- stops, ISO and such like. Glynn
Mark Hamilton replied to Marc Crowther's discussion 'What ISO do you use the most (in given lighting situations)?' in the group General Photo Discussion
Hi Marc
Generally you should use the lowest ISO you can which will give you the results you are after. I set the camera at 100 ISO when I can but many situations do require a faster setting. Concerts I use 1600 ISO on average but have changed to…
What ISO do you use the most (in given lighting situations)?
I'm wondering what other peoples opinions are on this. I recently took a lot of shots for a friend for her business and I tended towards using ISO100 for pretty much the whole lot (using flash bouncing for lighting as needed).Of course, when I passed these pictures on to a friend to have a fiddle with (read as: edit into being a more interesting picture =P), he noticed immediately that I was shooting almost exclusively at 100. He pointed out that he shoots primarily at 400 (sometimes at 800 as…See More

Marc Crowther commented on Robert Beckett's photo
The DOF in this picture is interesting...
Also, were these the actual colours on the day, or did you edit them in? If they're natural that's just...well...insane (and cool).
Marc Crowther commented on Robert Beckett's photo
I agree with you on all of the above. Very interesting. =)
Marc Crowther replied to Robert Beckett's discussion 'Bellows or rings for Macro' in the group General Photo Discussion
I got a cheap (read as: $350) Tamron 18-200mm lense for that reason. Too expensive to buy the GOOD macro lenses. I also found that I almost never use my default camera lense (18-55) because of this. The Tamron calls itself a macro, and it does an ok…
Marc Crowther replied to Tom Chen's discussion 'Monitor Color profile for 24" iMac with Snow Leopard' in the group General Photo Discussion
I don't know how useful it is, but maybe it would be possible by removing the glass? The glass on an iMac is generally held on by a number of extremely powerful magnets. Here's a rundown on removing it. I'm not sure if it would void…
Marc Crowther replied to Tom Chen's discussion 'Monitor Color profile for 24" iMac with Snow Leopard' in the group General Photo Discussion
Alternatively, you're sending the photo to them (and it looks good), but their monitors are all wrong (so it looks bad at their end).
A key point with displaying of items on a screen is the type of panel used in it. Most iMac's these days…

Dave Hartley said… - if you ever get up to Mannum i would be happy to show you what i use it for - honest opinion is unless you want to "create" photos - i prefer LR - rarely use CS - too busy to learn it properly - LR does 99% of the adjustments i require.

- Hi Marc - Re Lightroom/Photoshop - still pretty new to both (12?months) - light room is great for organising your photos - and very good and quick at image adjustments - cropping, removing dust, changing exposure, sharpening, fixing fill light, clarity, hues ect ect ect - 80+ photos for a real estate agent yesterday - didnt go into CS4 at all - i really only open CS now to add text or if adding a layer is needed -every image goes through LR though
