A question for fellow RAW shooters
As my drive fills up (over 600 GB) the question I have asked myself repeatedly over time re emerges. Do I really need to keep all my RAW as well as my converted jpeg files ? Up till now I have kept them all but with the amount I shoot and the size of RAW files I question if there's a need. ...

A question for fellow RAW shooters
I always keep my RAW files. I sometimes go back and rework them as my skills improve, or just because I want to play and see what turns up.

A question for fellow RAW shooters
I find it very liberating to get rid of all the old stuff and move on to the new. So I delete stuff as much as possible ,like winnowing out the dross, it's like having a car boot sale of stuff that I will never use again ,My ideal is to have 100 to 200 photos that I really like , that don't need ex...

Yup drives have come back down in price now, since the high prices caused by the flood shortage.

A question for fellow RAW shooters
I delete stuff before and during processing if I find it's technically poor (out of focus, irrepairably over or under-exposed etc) and I'll also pick the best of a series of similar shots. What I keep, I keep the RAW and at least one processed jpg. I have considered deleting the RAW files for th...

A question for fellow RAW shooters
thanks everyone for your replies and very overwhelmingly the consensus seems to be to keep all RAWS. seems I need to invest in some drives and work out how to get lightroom to store them there instead of hard drive..oh and of course a back up too.

In that vein, my wife and I are totally at odds. I keep almost everything. She keeps almost nothing. Her favorite phrase is :- There's nothing wrong with the garage/loft/back room/(anywhere that I keeps anything) that cannot be cured with a good skip regards Bernard

A question for fellow RAW shooters
I keep all my RAW images. I do go through and toss out those that are obviously poorly done, such as blurred, way over or under exposed, etc. But after that my RAW images are treated just like my film negatives. I keep them stored and I back them up. I have also converted all RAW to .dng and I have ...

Lens Ratio
Dave, I think you are more or less right. As far as I know (and I could well be wrong), I think the logic is: The focal length of the lens is not related to the size of the sensor. However, 35mm format is generally used as the baseline against which everything else is measured hence things tend to ...

My Harper’s BAZAAR and FASHION Magazine Canada Haute Couture Shoots Weekend
Or a Cacophony of Controlled Craziness... Shooting the Haute Couture is a privilege and a rare occasion. The Haute Couture in Paris only shows for four days of which one of those days is to exhibit Haute Joaillerie (Jewelry). Last weekend July 7 & 8, 2012, was the first time I ever shot two diffe...

EV compensation
I'm just looking back at what python118 asked specifically, and my advice would have a look through a good digital photography book at the sections dealing with exposure matters. Immediately, if images are too dark (or bright) in areas, I would activate the warnings for this on the LCD display -...

EV compensation
Sorry, one other point - python118 asked about the ISO setting. Ths ISO setting does not affect the exposure value (EV) of the photo - it is this value that we are talking about. The only setting you can apply on the camera that changes the exposure value directly is the exposure compensation contro...

Ah Smeggy "How do you know what what works for someone else or not? I only know what works for me I wouldn't even think to be so presumptuous as to claim to know what works for someone else" You are arguing against yourself as it appears you would advise beginners to throw the "rule book" (and...

Yes, getting back to the OP, about 0.3 EV

EV compensation
OK, so what you see on the LCD would be what you get when you copy it over to a computer or print it directly from the card. Then our beginners would be well advised to try out the various parameters, choosing settings they like for each different subject - although I'm getting back onto shaky terra...
