^kkart
reports, November 26
reports, November 26From the Publishers of "What Digital Camera" and "Amateur Photographer", IPC Media today has announced a new online photography magazine, "Better Digital Photography" that people can read free and fully online, it is also interactive with embedding video tutorials from the magazine and mouse-over tips. Aimed at the entry and intermediate level photographer, it is heavily devoted to equipment and technique-focused photography content.
From the IPC Media website:
Publishing director Alex Robb says: “This is an exciting and innovative new venture for the photo portfolio. The editorial team have worked incredibly hard to create bespoke content, including technique videos and other interactive content. I am delighted that we have secured distribution to around two million photographers to ensure that as many people as possible benefit from the excellent tips and advice. Better Digital Photography is a further indication of how IPC continues to innovate in this competitive sector.”
Editor Mat Gallagher adds: “We wanted to create a product that helps the reader expand their knowledge, while being easy to use. It is thanks to the talents of art editor Steve Crabb that we have managed to produce such a visually stimulating and accessible magazine that surpasses anything else in the market place.”
My thoughts, this is downright awesome and VERY well done, it is like looking at an actual magazine, but the fact that it has videos embedded within for tips, tutorials, and techniques, make this even better! You can also subscribe for free, via email for upcoming issues, make personal notes within the magazine, and download a copy to your hard drive. GO GET IT!

Tips for photographing fireworks
=Lissa68
reports, December 17, 2008
reports, December 17, 2008It's coming close to the end of the year and many of us will be standing around in the cold watching the firework displays in various towns. Here are some tips to take great shots of what you are seeing up in the sky.
According to the experts:
There are two basic elements you need in order to take great shots.
1. A time exposure.
2. A solid platform for the camera.
Going further in depth into this:
1: How long should your time exposure be? It truly depends on what you are shooting and the ambient light surrounding it. Also, is there water reflections involved? Time ranges from at least one second long, some two seconds, and some even longer than that. With your camera set at an ISO 100, a one-second exposure should be sufficient.
2: A solid platform, pretty simple, use a tripod or other make-shift platform. Also try locking the mirror in the up position to avoid any sort of camera shake.
Other variables:
Aperature: You'd think that opening it wide would be the right choice? Wrong. You want to record the flash of light, not the dark sky, so actually setting it as small as possible is the best option. Try a smaller aperture like f/8, or f/11, or even f/16. This depends on the speed of your film (or camera ISO setting) and how bright the flash is...so you may need to bracket your shots and use different settings.
Focus: Set it to infinity, or go ahead and trust your camera and put it on automatic. You have other things to worry about than trying to quickly manually focus.
ISO: Be careful that you don't set this too high, the end result will be noise and/or blown out flashes. An ISO of 100-400 when setting everything else correctly is sufficient.
Flash: NO. Unless you are trying to capture an object in the foreground of your photo.
Remote Shutter Release: If your camera lets you do it? Then use it. They aren't that expensive and allows you to enjoy the display while taking the shots. You aren't stuck behind that little eye piece trying to get the shot.
