F-stop..... Aperture value
Way back I was told that AV was the number of stops (+ or -) from f1 which had an AV of 0. So f0.7 = AV-1, f1.4 = AV1, f2 = AV2, f2.8 = AV3 etc. Do the EXIF figures bear that out? Michael

Polarising Filters won`t do much to reduce reflections but will help with glare (though at a cost of 1.5 -2 stops.) If it is possible i put the lens right up to the glass and manual focus in the subject. The old rubber lens hoods used to be very useful for this as you could alter the angle without l...

I used them at the beginning of the year, the 2 lenses arrived in 4 working days as claimed, and my cash back arrived in 10 days. Was the cash back offer worldwide?

I would like your opinion Please
I am going to weigh in here. I have both in this realm, a desktop and two laptops for my work. I prefer to do most editing and finishing on anything in PP on my iMac desktop. The larger screen, along with the expanded memory, the tablet and additional drives (all firewire enabled) make that an easy ...
