ben's blog - photog lessions

  • shoot in raw+
    • makes "processing" much quicker
    • still have dngs for any that need attention
    • need to take the time to get jpg settings right
    • sorta makes it a glorified P&S, which is sorta how I'm using it
  • 60gb of flash was way excessive - the 2 16s would have sufficed
  • so far, could have just taken the 18-55 and been ok
  • shooting from the hip is fun/interesting - uwa + f8 FTW
  • eeepc invaluable - can't imagine going through this volume of shots (>100/day. ~5000 total) once I get back
  • could have probably just used an lx-3 for the whole trip, though don't regret the K-7
  • old age is scary
    • people are just amorphous asexual bags of flesh
    • tatt00s age better than I'd thought
    • silicon implants... do not
  • 'green' mode is awesome for handing the camera over - overrides all of my custom settings (esp useful is AF on half press)
  • Jeremy is a better photographer than I am
