What white balance settings do I need to capture the cast of a coloured streetlight? @John Cavan - what is the difference between a JPEG shot with white balance of 5000 K and a RAW file adjusted to 5000 K. They should give the same result, right? The main difference is that once the JPEG is shot, the white balance cannot be changed (without loosing some data). Ditto for exposure and other settings -- a RAW file can look exactly like the JPEG, except you can change more things. |

What white balance settings do I need to capture the cast of a coloured streetlight? @fmark: there's not really a difference between fiddling with the RAW image and fiddling with the JPEG AWS settings. In fact you may be able to get a better sense of what is going on using RAW data, since you can see as many white balance settings as you want for the image. |

Is in-camera high-ISO noise reduction worthwhile? Thanks, just the confirmation I was looking for. |

Where can I buy used photo studio equipment? The obvious answers are 'eBay' and 'Craigslist'. |

Reservations on making the move to Adobe Lightroom or Apple's Aperture Agree with @cabbey, I don't see how the photo loss could have been anything except user error. |

Reservations on making the move to Adobe Lightroom or Apple's Aperture Obviously it's a personal preference thing. But in the event of software failure, it's not like you should ever loose files -- one way or another, they're on the disk somewhere. And in my experience, a failure in a software's database is more likely to happen if you insist on being involved in the process. |

Tips for photographing art (at a museum) Meh, don't be that person at the museum who can't enjoy the art because you're fiddling with your camera the entire time. The artwork will never be as good as when you're looking at it with your own eyes. You'll spend the entire time lamenting the person blocking your shot or the glare on the protective glass instead of enjoying your visit. Buy a postcard if you find something you want to remember, and practice photography on something more fleeting. |
