Why did “pure” photography displace pictoralism so completely? Thank you Stan, I learned a lot from this answer. |

How do you shoot lighting designs in a studio? i wonder if the lightning design company doesn't already have some fixture to set up their products. I think that they have to display them somehow and so probably have already faced some similar issue.... |

How to achieve a “moody” effect in urban landscapes? the works of the two photographers you mentioned seem rather different to me. Perhaps if you could express better what kind of mood you are seeing in them it would be helpful for answering (and maybe it could be helpful for you, too, since explaining is the best way to understand something) |

Are there lenses that zoom out rather than in? @mikew I don't know if you're right, but thanks for providing that link, I had missed a good question and a great answer. |

Is my Canon speedlite really dead? Don't forget that you can accept your own answer. Congratulations on having fixed the issue with your flash! |

How does the eye-controlled focussing of the Canon EOS 5 work? interesting question, the past reserves a lot of surprises :-) |

How can I adjust for any inaccuracy in a homemade white card? a difference of 50 degrees is usually not relevant so your test confirms that your homemade reference card Ian perfectly usable. good! |

Does Lightroom apply edits in the order I do them, or does it intelligently reorder them? John, I think that @MichaelNielsen has precisely got the point of my question (which I don't think will receive much further clarification unless someone from LR team steps in...): what happens if I increase the contrast after having sharpened (producing artifacts)? nothing, if the engine decides to apply them later: a lot of image deterioration if the engine doesn't re-order them. Which could explain the behaviour observed by Petr in his comment. As soon as possible I will do some experiment on some test image to convince myself....lately I am really short on free time :-( |

Does Lightroom apply edits in the order I do them, or does it intelligently reorder them? Thanks @john thomas. The way in which non destructive editing works was clear to me. My question is about your next-to-last paragraph: "the program's editing engine being responsible of applying them in the what it thinks to be correct order". So really in LR you can sharpen when you want and how many times you want without fear of degradation, hoping that the engine is able to see-through the potentially interrelated steps of sharpening (with its halos) and noise reduction, image rotation (which must move each pixel, including those added by sharpening...) and so on. |

How can a high resolution camera matter when the output is low resolution? @Michael but in a resized reproduction those could be for all purposes not apparent? Or not? |

Cause of grainy photos? now I understand, actually I asked a question about it some days ago. photo.stackexchange.com/q/30798/5032 :-) You are probably interested in the "Zeroed" setting which doesn't apply anything (as far as I know). |

Cause of grainy photos? I'm not sure to have understood, what you are saying is not in line with my experience with LR. Maybe you could ask a question about it with all the details so we can solve/clarify the issue in an adequate venue and not in these comments? |

Cause of grainy photos? Usually it's the other way around: the jpg coming straight out of camera has been automatically sharpened I an irreversible way, while the raw file is mostly untouched and you can decide if, how and how much sharpening apply. For this reason an unprocessed raw file will be displayed as a softer image than a "typical" jpg. |

Is it normal for the zoom to be loose on a Sony 18-250 lens? Don't know the lens but if all it takes is a minimal slope, the answer is probably yes. For comparison, a Canon 18-200 lenghtens a little if it is pointing downward (like if you are carrying the camera around) but othewise stays put. |

How does the Canon EF-S 15-85 IS USM compare to the EF 24-105mm L as an all-around lens? Why do you refer to the 38 - 55 range? I guess you meant 24 -55? |

Does Lightroom apply edits in the order I do them, or does it intelligently reorder them? Hi @Navid thanks for your answer. Could you be clearer? Is the order of sharpening and noise reduction, to name a few, relevant or not? |

Will a 50mm f/1.8 work for general outdoor photography? Recall that the 50mm on a crop sensor camera like the D5100 is a bit longer (50*1.5 = 75) than a normal lens on a full frame camera, so the images would not be perfectly matching. |

Best location for group photo near canals in Amsterdam the Voigtlander Bessa question was great, in any case :-) I agree with @mattdm, for me the criterion for too-localized is "is this question searchable by someone with reasonable keywords?" and I can see someone looking for scenic places in Amsterdam. |
