**Photography Chat** Version 1.0
 

Let the chatting commence:excited:

Everyone needs a wide angle. They're great for tight spaces.
Everyone needs a telephoto. They're great for places like zoos where you can't get close.
Everyone needs a prime. They're great for super sharp photos and for low light if the aperture is low enough.

Everyone needs to get their butt in here and chat.

Canon or Nikon, let the debait start........

screw this debate, its about as bad as "manual vs auto".

What lenses does everyone pack?
I have a nikon d90 and I typically just carry around my 18-200 VR and my 50mm 1.8.

I also have a 80-200 2.8, but I don't lug it around all the time, its a beast of a lens. My other lenses include a 10-20mm sigma wide angle and a 105mm 2.8 sigma macro.

HKY up in this beotch

Pinhole cameras are best!

Debait? Why would you get rid of the bait?

:icon18:

Im using a T2i right now, but used to use a d40 w/70-200 VR, damn good combo for a small price. Im debating a few different lenses right now before I officially start my weekend photography business.

I shoot a Canon 50D, going to look at the 7D Mark II when it arrives since the 60D is a disappointing upgrade, but I could use a lot better ISO 12,800.

Just got a 15-85 lens and it is amazing, replacing my Sigma 18-50/2.8 for normal use.

I just took a few pics, came out like crap, like total, undeniable crap. There was so much noise in the shadows, it was just stupid, even with the ISO at 6400. I do know the setting was bunk, as shadows were killing the shot and it was, unfortunately, just before the magic hour. I need to remind myself not to bother with that situation again.

:icon18: I remember making one in my HS photography class! :tup:

In HS photography class, I took a picture with a very long exposure at night. Had a girl walk in a square motion during the shot. It came out really really nice as it seemed like a shadow walked in a square :tup:

Hey don't know where you were trying to take pics at but the higher the ISO the more noise you will get, if you can get away with 400 or less for ISO the better quality your images will be. Just thought I'd help you out.

Have you ever seen the pics people take at night of themselves, waving around glow sticks and what not ,with really long exposures? The glow sticks leave really cool trails and stuff! Pretty neat.
