    Some photography questions that I was asked but I don't know how to answer them.

    I think the club just wanna make sure they aren't recruiting someone with zero knowledge or experience about photography, because yes, we're required to shoot for the club during school events and yes, they do provide training. But the photos don't have to be fantastic because afterall it's a...

    Some photography questions that I was asked but I don't know how to answer them.

    Thanks so much for all the help!!!!! For question 5's photo, can we say it's photoshopped, cos there doesn't seem to be any shadows underneath some of the players? And a few of the players seems like 'floating' above the grass?

    Some photography questions that I was asked but I don't know how to answer them.

    Basically, I'm a newbie, photography is just something I like to do during my free time. So I'm trying to join a photographic society in my school, and they gave us a few technical questions about photography that we're supposed to answer before they consider us for recruitment. But as a newbie...

    How do I reduce the file size of a photo?

    I'm using a D5000 and I shoot in JPEG mode, each photo is about 5MB in size. Is there any way I can reduce the file size? I usually only post my photos up to my blog, so with each photo being 5mb, it takes me a long time to upload it to Flickr and Photobucket, plus flickr puts a limit to the...

    Has anyone bought a screen protector for D5000?

    I bought a 2.7inch screen protector but it was too small so I went to have it changed to 3.0inch. It was still small. Does anyone knows what size I should get in order to cover the entire glass area, instead of only the 2.7inch LCD screen? Or there's no such size in the market and I've to buy a...

    Jalgachi Market, Busan, Korea

    Do the stall-holders get annoyed when you do close-ups of the food and ended up not buying any? When I went on past trips overseas(I owned only a normal digital cam then), I didn't dare to take photos of food at marketplaces or night markets because I was scared that I would be scolded by the...

    Shutter-release button sometimes don't work. Malfunction?

    I'm using a Nikon D5000. Sometimes when I use the Auto Mode and press the shutter-release button, the camera doesn't snap a picture. Is it because I'm too near to the subject of photo and the camera somehow knows that it isn't going to give me a good picture or is this a malfunction that I...

    How do I rotate NEF(RAW) photos in My Documents?

    On ViewNX, the photos are already rotated, does that mean that when I upload them to flickr or mypicturetown, the photos would be rotated correctly?

    How do I rotate NEF(RAW) photos in My Documents?

    I started saving my photos as NEF(RAW), but when I uploaded them to my computer, I realised I couldn't rotate the photos in the My Pictures folder in My Documents. Is there any way I can go about doing that? And does anyone knows which photo storage websites besides My Picturetown that I can...

    How to I extend the 8sec LCD screen light-up of D5000?

    I'm using a D5000, the LCD screen 'blacks out' after the default 8 sec. I found that quite annoying because 8 sec is really fast. So how can I extend the 8 sec to say, maybe 30 sec? I can't seem find it in the instruction manual. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Girl Newbie looking for a lady-like camera bag.

    Thanks for the suggestions! For the Canon EOS Tote Bag, does anyone knows what's the material on the exterior? Because I can't tell from the picture itself. Nylon or leather? The brown one looks quite nice. =)

    Girl Newbie looking for a lady-like camera bag.

    I recently picked up photography. I'm looking for a camera handbag to put my Nikon D5000, 2 lenses(just kit lenses) because when I go out, I carry a handbag and I don't want to carry an additional slingbag, it looks kind of weird. I know camera handbags are really rare, plus like I said, I'm...
