The error message "image too large" is misleading when read together with the physical size specification of the PP photo. This is because the upload size is the image digital file size and not the physical dimension. Depending on the dpi or ppi when you save or scan the image, the file size...

@josephjx. The VND is quite versatile as you can 'dial' in the 'stops' of ND you want. However, as you already found out, the 'stops' are indicative only and you may face issues getting the settings correct because your camera exposure meter may not be able to read the light level when you cut...

You can get 3rd party batteries at most camera shops. Just make sure of the following: 1) They are compatible. Some batteries may not work (i.e. not detected) by the camera. So bring along your camera to be sure. 2) The price is reasonable. do a bit of price shopping around. I used to use 3rd...

Not sure if you have already done the photoshoot but here's some advice to prepare for it. Do a number of indoor practice shoot before you go there. Once you are in the room, the solemnization ceremony will move efficiently and there is probably no chance to do a repeat. Familiarise yourself...

Those who shoot with film cameras are not doing so because of budget. I guess the you would already know from the many posts here that if you are on a tight budget, digital cameras is the solution. Those who shoot with films do so for various reasons. Speaking from personal experience, I...

I don't see any pressing reasons why you need to change as long as it works and produce the results you are happy with. The good part of using the camera body which you are happy with longer is that when it is really time to change, you will be able to get the latest model - leap frogging all...

The key info is not that standalone LR6 is still available from some sites. The key info is that standalone LR6 is a discontinued product. If you are starting out from scratch and not upgrading an existing LR installation, consider very carefully if you want to build a catalog, organise your...

If it is just for simple documentation of parts and there is no need for high resolution and super sharpness, then consider the Canon Ixus range. The IXUS285 is just within your budget. Letting us know what the the camera that was used before would help in know what kind of expectation your...

Lightroom is moving towards a subscription based model so you may not want to build your workflow around it. I, for one, is looking for an alternative as I don't like subscription models. You did not mention what camera you are using. Most cameras models comes packaged with some processing s/w...

If you google camera rental singapore you will probably get a few hits. You may even get the price list from their websites. I rented a lens from the one in New Bridge Road before and there were no issues.

I use the MAHA MHC9000 battery charger (4 slots). I like it because I can control the charging current for slow (normal) or fast charge. It can also cycle discharge to regenerate the battery but I don't use this very often. I use it to charge normal and high capacity variants of Eneloops...

I think this is the domain and responsibility of the wedding area designer - not so much as the photographer's. You can google 'wedding lightings' to get some ideas in this area. Depending on the venue, the wedding planner or organiser (if he is using one) would be the best people to make it...

Some lightbox are made with the assumption that the user will be using a tripod. The primary purpose of the lightbox is to give an overall even lighting and control of the colour balance. If you intend to hand hold your shots, supplement the lightbox with continuos lighting. If you are using...

Insurance is a transfer of risk and buying a peace of mind. In this case you transfer the risk, for an additional 2 years, equipment malfunction and accidental damage to Canon. Only the owner can determine if it is worth the price. If the lens sits in the dry cabinet 11 months in a year, then...

I guess the fastest way to find out is to call them. The number (from google search) is 6336 0922

Just sharing my experience. I moved from 7D to 6D a few years ago. Similar to you, the 17-55mm was my primary lens on the 7D. When I compare the photos that I took with the 7D and the 6D, there was no significant improvement. Maybe my technique was (is?) sub-par. However, I must say I enjoyed...

There are lots of books on photography you can get from the national library. They have a very wide selection. Use their website to search. I think the problem you will face is there are just too many to select from. Pick up one on exposure, lighting, composition or basic photography technique...

I am not sure of your skill level but if you are an absolute beginner, you may want to practice using some inanimate objects first so you will not appear to be so green when taking live models. That was what I did. It help me test out lighting configurations, balancing natural lights with flash...

When selecting the tripod, consider the choice of the head as well. I bought a Sirui tripod set for the light weight but found that the ball head performance was not that satisfactory when I first used it. Traded it up for a better Sirui ballhead.

Yes, a dedicated macro lens may be out of your budget - even a second hand one. The good news is that if you are new to close-up and wants to see what are the possibilities of creating interesting images in this genre, there are at least 2 lower cost options. 1. Close up lens. When I wanted...
