TIPS

Spill something on one of your Favorite photographs ?

   Do not wipe with a dry cloth.  Do wash the print under warm water thoroughly and blow dry or let stand until dry do not touch the front of the print while drying

 

Back of your camera opened with film in ?

  Close it as quick as possible. If it is closed quickly only a few frames may be wrecked. Any film still in the canister is still fine. Advance a couple of frames and finish the roll.

 

Get Close!

One of the most common mistakes when taking family, or individuals photographs is not getting close enough.  Fill the picture space with what or who you are going to capture. Remember most auto focus cameras can only focus on object farther than 3 feet or 1 meter. So forget the close up of a flower unless you the camera has those capabilities

 

Multiple exposure Calculations

Calculating exposure is relatively easy.  If your camera reading was  f8 at 1/15.  Override the camera for …..

2  -the correct exposure would be to shoot at  1/30 twice..

4  -the correct exposure be to shoot at 1/60  four times

9 -the correct exposure would at 1/125 sec,

15  - the correct exposure would be 1/250

 

Arena's, School Concerts and Flash

Most Flash units in built into the camera do not carry any farther than 30 feet with high speed film .. This means that only available light is exposing the film. So at a concert or an arena where you are a distance from the subject use high speed film and save the batteries.
