snap 2007 results
lol omg..what did i get myself into? too many snaps! - Mac Forums Hey folks,i have small problem - bought a pentax k100 with 2 lense kit and i love it.
Of course, it's a new toy...been reading the manual and playing with settings....and the problem?oh man have i been snapping pics.
I took 325 of my kids jumping into the play pool in the backyard - just yesterday!!
Now of course, many are copies, but i'm trying to get the perfect splash and jump.
I snapped a ton the other night just playing too.
Tonight i took 64!am i nuts?
I realize this is a new weapon in my arsenal of three men and a baby to capture memories, but does it slow down?
I know it can depend on the person, but i'm thinking with the almost 3 or 3 frames per second of dslrs + 1+ gigabyte cards, i see how easy it is to snap a ton.i'm a good boy in the backup department and i have been weeding the snap 2007 results prior to saving them.if anything, i thought some of you may get a laugh out of me going nuts with the new camera.Cheers,Keebler snap 2007 results
snap 2007 jesus camp better to overshoot than to undershoot, provided you have the space capacity.
Yes, it's very easy to take too many pictures.
I ended up taking 500+ pictures at a friend's wedding.
I edited it down to 400 but still that's a lot.Just a word of advice, don't forget to actually enjoy yourself with your kids.
Put down the camera once in a while and just enjoy the moment.
Photos can't always capture that sense.
snap 2007 results I've always said the difference between a good photographer and a great photographer is in the shots a great photographer *doesn't* take.
Strive to work on timing and composition enough to not just clack-clack-clack away like a machine gun.
You'll improve if you ration your shots- if you just continue to spray and pray you won't likely make as much gain.
snap 2007 results I'll second fuzzwud: put the camera down, after you've taken a few shots, and enjoy the moment.
You're 'dad', after all, not just some guy hiding behind a camera.
I'll guess your kids will get tired of 'performing' before you get tired of clicking.
And, yes, capturing the 'decisive moment' is better than just firing off loads of shots simply because you can.But, hey, you've got a new toy, and you're enjoying the freedom of 'shooting from the hip'.
In time you'll maybe settle down to shoot, say, 20 shots, and edit down to 5 'keepers'.
In the meantime you're enjoying the freedom of digital.
Just imagine how many $$$ you'd have spent these past few days snap 2007 results you had to buy film!
Don't worry, I think you'll snap 2007 results down.In case you don'tQuote: Originally Posted by compuwar I've always said the difference between a good photographer and a great photographer is in the shots a great photographer john f kennedy jr take.

Then I agree with the above.
I went to Japan for almost 3 weeks last year, and I took around 400-500 photos.
Yes, I deleted many of them at night (don't do it while you're shooting, as you'll be missing the action), but I couldn't have taken more than 800 in total.
Out of the 400-500 photos I brought home with me, I went through them and deleted the bad photos.
I have around 250 photos from the trip, which is enough.
Pretty good success rate if you ask me.If you find yourself taking 350 photos of your kids playing in a pool next summer, then you have a problem: You forgot to work on your photography skills.However, I think that by the end of this summer, you'll shoot around 30-60 photos of your kids, and keep around 15-20 photos that are actually worth keeping.
I can remember being handed a huge pile of family shots to look through, by someone who said "I don't know which ones are best, so here's everything".
These are some of the most discouraging words in the Engish language...The pix you take snap 2007 results the problem, it's the ones you pick to show around.
Anyone will be happy to see your ten or twenty best shots, but a hundred might be pushing friendship too far...Out of a series of pix, I try to find the one that 'says it all'...
And delete most of the rest.
Every year around summer vacation and Christmas holidays, people ask me what the best camera is for them to buy.
I always tell them the following:1.
The best camera is the one you can use.2.
Always buy extra battery and a really large memory card.3.
If you're buying it to help commemorate a special occasion (going on vacation, graduation), take at least 100 shots before that special occasion setting up the sort of shots you'd take so you can take those better shots at that special occaision.It's so easy to take a lot of digital shots, huh?In my opinion, too many digital shots would be at the point where you and your kids weren't having fun together!
snap 2007 results You must be ruthless ..
Weed out everything that is not good.Digital cameras are a great way to learn as it doesn't cost you anything.Your technique will improve as you learn from your mistakes ...In the mean-time enjoy.

I'd offer a possible exception is the broad category of event photography.
Anything that snap 2007 results ever going to happen again, it's a good idea to take a lot so snap 2007 results you improve your odds.
Good timing and composition (and all other elements of understanding how pictures work) also improve your odds with the machine gun effect.
Certainly just taking lots of pictures alone isn't what makes taking lots of pictures effective.

While I get what you're saying, I'll argue that improving your timing and framing are just fine without machine-gunning it.
Spray-and-pray is good for when your timing isn't up to hitting something exactly- like explosions, but even with things like high-speed motor sports, diving, etc.
A well-aimed shot at the right time beats spray-and-pray better than 9 times out snap 2007 results 10.Watch a pro wedding shooter who's nailed his craft, you'll see them spending more time setting up to hit that once-in-a-lifetime moment than shooting it.Shoot medium or large format for a couple of months and snap 2007 results how your rate of fire decreases, but your rate of excellence increases.In my photographic element, I'll shoot slow and hoppin john nail it.
Out of my element, I find myself shooting more quickly and missing things because of it.
Well-aimed shots also give you the luxury of looking beyond the viewfinder between shots to gain more chances.
Yeah,... if you keep your finger on the shutter and shoot in a continuous burst, you're not really upping your chances of getting THE shot.
Partly 'cos the camera's aperture will be closed for longer than it's open.
Also you're not learning how to hit the 'decisive moment'.
