Photographer, tech head, and extreme sport enthusiast.
I'm an amateur who likes to shoot everything from portraits to landscapes. My favorite venues are half way up a 14k mountain, Ontario in Fall, and the Mediterranean at sunset.
I love talking technology, new equipment, and Canon lenses.

How do you achieve sharp bokeh circles? I really like when people actually post example images! +1! |

How do I choose a lens that does portraits, star photography and landscapes? Matt might have been referring to this previous question: What are the benefits and costs of an image stabilized, slower lens vs a non-IS faster lens? |

Why does a bigger sensor have better dynamic range? Does this answer your question: What's the relation between sensor size and image quality (noise, dynamic range)?? Also see What is the dynamic range comparison between SLR, DSLR, and point & shoot? and also photo.stackexchange.com/questions/7616/… |

Optimal settings to capture firework at night using Nikon D3200 with 18mm - 105mm Zoom Lens? See: What settings should I be using to photograph fireworks?. If after reading that question, you have a further question, I would suggest editing this one to note that. |

What is Power Focus on a Canon lens? What does "drive the autofocus motor electronically" mean? |

Noob photographer, seeking help for day-to-day lens The best advice I can give is to use the equipment you have until you understand it well enough to make informed knowledge based decisions. Most people either don't like this advice or fail to heed it so they instead want a specific model of lens that they can buy. That is what my answer below suggests(50mm f/1.8 lens). |

Why does photoshop import every third frame of a gif? @AJHenderson - Actually I think this would fit better over at graphicdesign.stackexchange.com . Digital media is specifically on topic over there, and this appears to be a question about preparing a gif for web use. This is an example of an on topic question that already exists over there and is very similar - graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/9406/… |

Use the Nikon D800 to make short YouTube videos & still shots of an owner-build or am I better getting separate video and DSLR cameras at same price? As this question gets edited, it just makes it even more off topic. What does this information and questioning about the "Canon Legria HFG25 HD Camcorder" provide for still photography for example? |

Do you still need an ultra wide angle if you can now stitch images? @BlueRaja-DannyPflughoeft - I understand. I do not consider anything done in any version of Photoshop as easy as the "Camera" app in iOS. Night and day. |

Do you still need an ultra wide angle if you can now stitch images? Some software nowadays is easy for stitching, but at varying levels of quality and sometimes with quite imposing restrictions. I am thinking of the iOS "Panorama" feature as being extremely easy to use, but Photoshop certainly isn't as easy for example. They obviously offer different levels of accuracy and quality though. |

Do you still need an ultra wide angle if you can now stitch images? That is really confusing when you list the lens that you bought with the tightest focal length first, and widest last(24-10mm f/3.5). Standard notation would be 10-24mm not 24-10mm, with the widest focal length noted first. |

How do I speed up Apple Aperture? Overall that is quite a nice piece of hardware, hardly just "decent" I would say to run something like Apple Aperture. It is probably more high end. See if this existing question helps you at all - photo.stackexchange.com/questions/9381/… |

Why does my Lightroom library now show two photos with the same file number? Is it a virtual copy? |

How do I remove the blur in my jewelry picture? Are you interested in removing it from the already captured image or how to remove it while redoing the picture? |
