Digital Camera Auto Settings Guide

Tedric Garrison writes about the different settings and what they can be used for, "Knowing what the symbols are for, gives you much more creative control than always shooting in green mode.
Remember your camera is like a paintbrush to the painter, you control how much light to apply to the photo. Point and shoot cameras that offer NO adjustments, are for tourist not photographers. As long as your camera has options; whether they are manual or automatic you still have choices. “Creativity” comes form having those choices and using them."

The anatomy of a great shot

• Get closer: Before you click the photo, ask yourself if taking another step or two nearer to your subject might be an improvement. Are there distracting elements around the edges of your photo -- or worse, ones that appear to be growing out of your subject's head? Avoid the deadly composition of your family, from the waist up, at the center of the frame, next to the historic marker or landmark. Place your subject in the foreground, off center (remember, take a step closer) and far enough from the landmark to create a sense of depth. A wide-angle lens does this best.
• Shooting subjects: For photos of people, a telephoto lens will enable a shy photographer to get candid shots, but don't use this as a crutch. Often you'll do better to approach the subject in a friendly way and ask permission to take a photo. This will get you close enough, with a normal or wide-angle lens, to get a more meaningful image that reflects your interaction with the subject.
• Lighting: Soft, luminous early morning light can make for great photos. But take a break from photography at high noon on sunny days, when the light is harsh and unflattering. Try to be outdoors later in the day, when the warm color of the afternoon light and setting sun will wash every scene in an inviting glow.
• Extras: Be sure to have spare batteries and memory cards. Cameras are useless when that battery dies. There's nothing worse than being on a three-hour boat ride with a dead camera.

Learn from wildlife photography experts

Ever wanted to know how to take the perfect picture of the great outdoors?
Well, now's your chance to get help from the experts on a free wildlife photography workshop at Chasewater on Saturday, May 12.
Lichfield District Council, in partnership with Lichfield Camera Club, invites you to join a Nature and Wildlife photography event.
The two-hour informal workshop is for anyone with a love of nature - but it's especially aimed at people with little or no experience photographing wildlife.
Photographer Martin Fisher, along with members of Lichfield Camera Club, will be on hand to show you how to snap beautiful wildlife in the idyllic setting of Chasewater County Park.

The main focus will be on the great variety of insect and plant life found around Chasewater - and there will also be an opportunity to consider how to photograph some of many birds on the lake itself, such as moorhens, coots, great crested grebes and ducks.
Martin Fisher said: "This event will be a great way to discover more about photography and to focus on the beautiful surroundings of Chasewater Country Park. Please remember to wear suitable outdoor clothing, and to bring your camera which can be of any kind, including digital."
There is no need to book, just turn up at the Forest of Mercia Innovation Centre at
10.30am on the day - where you can also take the opportunity to see an exhibition of Lichfield Camera Club's photographs, on display at the Centre May 11-18. Admission is free.

Demand For Digital Cameras to Slow

Demand for digital cameras will slow over the next few years as the market enters a maturity phase, and the market will begin to shrink by 2011, researcher IDC said.

Global shipments of digital cameras rose 15 percent in 2006, driven by strong demand for advanced models and in emerging markets, but growth is expected to slow to 8 percent in 2007, and the market will shrink in 2011, IDC said on Wednesday.
"We predict a slowdown, driven by a complete saturation of all regions, creating negative growth in 2011," said Christopher Chute, an analyst at IDC.
But shipments of digital single-lens reflex (DSLR) aimed at enthusiasts and professionals are expected to remain strong, with average growth of about 9 percent to 8.5 million units in 2011, IDC said.
Global DSLR shipments in 2006 jumped by 39 percent.

Japan's Canon Inc. and Nikon Corp. control more than 80 percent of the world's DSLR market.
Major players in the overall digital camera market include Sony Corp., Olympus Corp. and Fujifilm Holdings Corp.
South Korea's Samsung Electronics jumped up the ranks to 5th place last year from 9th in 2005, while Eastman Kodak ranked third but lost market share from a year earlier, IDC said earlier this month.

Kodak and Canon Extend Alliance into Digital Color Printing Space...

Eastman Kodak Company and Canon Inc. today announced a broadening of their long-standing alliance with the launch of the Kodak Nexpress M700 Digital Color Press for the U.S. and Canada market.

Kodak Press Release:
Eastman Kodak Company and Canon Inc. today announced a broadening of their long-standing alliance with the launch of the Kodak Nexpress M700 Digital Color Press for the U.S. and Canada market. The introduction of the Nexpress M700 digital color press serves as an extension of a drupa 2004 announcement to collaborate across a broad range of digital printing technologies and market development opportunities. Kodak and Canon have successfully collaborated in the black and white digital production printing arena since 1999.
The Nexpress M700 digital color press integrates Canon’s newly developed 70 ppm color imaging print engine with the scaleable Kodak Nexstation Front End and unique operator replaceable component (ORC) capability. The ORC capability allows printers to drive greater uptime and help control costs and image quality. The Nexpress M700 digital color press will be available in the U.S. and Canada, at this time.
“Forging this relationship with Canon is important to our commitment to serve customers participating in the digital printing market at more and varied levels,” said Venkat Purushotham, General Manager, Digital Printing Solutions, Kodak’s Graphic Communications Group. “By combining the unified workflow and ORC capabilities of the Nexpress system with the innovative imaging technology and manufacturing quality that Canon provides, we offer an ideal press for customers entering the digital color production printing market with lighter duty cycles than those handled by our other Nexpress presses.”
The Nexpress M700 digital color press targets print providers who want to enter and build a sustainable, profitable digital print business with Kodak using short run color, web to print and variable data print applications.
“We are very proud of providing Kodak with our quality print engine,” said Masaki Nakaoka, Canon Inc. Director and Chief Executive of Office Imaging Products Operations. “A great deal of resources have been invested in this print engine to ensure Kodak’s quality requirements and we are confident of Kodak’s success in the market. This is also an important step forward for our relationship with Kodak.”
Canon continues to serve as the largest worldwide indirect reseller of the Kodak DigiMaster Digital Production System.

Photographing for Charities

If you're working as a photographer - and perhaps especially if you're just starting out, in the hope that you can build up a bit of a portfolio - you are often asked to take on the strangest assignments. Some of them can be a lot of fun, while others… in the immortal words of Borat: Not so much.


"I've done a fair bit of work which involves charities, and a few years back I noticed a new trend: They will want you to sign a contract as part of the photography work. You’ll want to read it carefully, because ‘charity’ isn’t automatically synonymous with ‘good people’: Some of their contracts will try and rob you of all your rights."

35mm film scanners for 35mm slides and film strips

http://www.flatbed-scanner-review.org/ reviewed Polaroid, Nikon, Kodak, Microtek, Leaf, Konica-Minolta, Olympus, Creo and others.
They also discuss scanners for 4x5 film.

35mm slide scanners (35mm film scanners), product reviews and comparisons of Polaroid, Nikon, Kodak, Microtek, Leaf, Minolta, and Olympus 35mm slide and film scanners for desktop publishing, in-house publishing, and pre-press for brochures, reports, and short-run printing.
We found few sites on the Internet dedicated to mid-range and high-end scanners (most of what is on the web is for entry level consumer scanners). Since you can easily make the mistake of selecting a scanner based on what costs the least, the goal of these pages is to provide information so that an intelligent decision can be made from the features and capabilities of better 35mm slide scanners, flatbed scanners, drum and film scanners. The special features and the unique software of some models are the foundations for a decision on what scanner to buy. Good scanner software is essential, the two best being LinoColor Elite and Silver Fast. LinoColor, and all Heidelberg products, are no longer made. So this leaves SilverFast as among the best available.

Scanning - Software Tips and Help

Flatbed scanners are very cheap nowadays and great for scanning documents and photos of all types. However if you've ever tried to scan slides (transparencies) or negatives you were probably very disappointed with the results.Flatbed scanners work by reflecting light off printed stuff - much like a photocopier/xerox. However to scan slides you need a scanner that can shine light through the slide. This is the same reason you have to hold slides up to the light to view them by hand.There are a few ways around this - and this page was originally written a few years back to talk about the SlideScan device we bought. This is a mirror box which reflects the scanner's light up/over and through the slide making it scan with an ordinary scanner.
(13 Jan 05)This device is no longer easy to find - but apparently can be bought from:
http://www.datamind.co.uk/
It is a bit limited in use though so you may be better off buying a scanner with a built in slide/transparency adaptor.
SlideScan
SlideScan is a scanning adaptor which allows flatbed scanners to cope with slides and negatives. This page details some of my early experiences with it. There used to be some more info on the web about it - but it seems to have gone.
Slidescan copes well with 35mm slides. Depending on the scanner, it also copes with 6x4.5cm and 6x6cm slides. All my tests have been with a cheap OpicPro 4830P flatbed scanner and this can't quite seem to do 6x6cm slides, but it gets close.
The following details are the attempt so far - read on at http://www.rolandandcaroline.co.uk/slidescan.html
