So they come to a forum and ask for advice - sounds reasonable to me... But then get driven away by people who have a lot to say but nothing to contribute. Sad. So you have been 'lumbered' with the job 'cos the other person left. Rethink the brief and represent it to your management... and take a chill-pill friend. Enough said.

And you in turn have made unsubstantiated assertions that the EP3 system is inherently better (by unsubstantiated I mean reference to articles that support it). Call it quits, eh? Crikey, this is a prickly forum. The fact that the mirror-less cameras determine focus at the sensor is "inherently better" because that's where the final image is being recorded - pretty uncontroversial...

What is Photography..
Every time I attempt to shoot a self portrait I come to the conclusion that a camera is the wrong weapon! LOL..! ROFL

Whats the deal with landscapes?
Thanks Keith. Put better than I could but in essence what I meant. I was going to hold up Ericfarager as an example of this, he's distinctly himself and you can immitate but he's the original.

They had time to love photography...
It all depends what you aspire to do - a basic manual camera means you have to learn about exposure and how to achieve different effects, rather than just choosing a mode without understanding how different apertures effect depth of field, for example.
Forum: Photographic discussion
I was moaning mainly about the 12 minute clip limit in HD - which makes the 5D II useless for much serious videography, e.g. concerts and other events where continuity is important. And there seems to be some suggestion of image degradation, as the sensor heats up, even before that limit is reached. Very poor show, methinks. :( Even on my £200 "YouTube" camcorder, you can alter the shutter s...

Your photography or artist theft?
He suggested that it was wrong to do this as the work belong to the artist who created the window, and you would just be copying the result. Following that logic it's wrong to photograph a building (copyright the architect) or car (copyright the manufacturer) There is no copyright infringement in photographing stained glass or sculptures in a public place. See here (Works on public displa...

Is photography improving
I just read a paragraph in a science book discussing the difference between sensation and perception. Obviously the 2 are linked but the dividing line is somewhat blurred.. In essence, our eyes all essentially see the same 2D image however, it is the the perception that enhances the sensation by involving memories of being there when a photo is taken such as temperature, sound etc. In other wor...
