SRT30D replied to Matt Sciba's discussion Why do the colors on my monitor look different than the printed pics?"Without getting into all kinds of technical mumbo jumbo, since you have reason to be concenrned your monitor isn't showing what you think it should be, don't worry about technicalities.
Calibrating a monitor is pretty straight forward- get…"
SRT30D replied to HKF's discussion are waterproof cameras any good"To shoot while kayaking, I use the Canon D10 and really like it. A bit more spendy than I'd been planning on, but a lot more camera than I thought it would be as well. I used it to shoot my son SCUBA diving and got mediocre results in the…"
SRT30D replied to HImani's discussion Nikon or canon??"An ancient and wise photographer once said, "If you can't get a professional picture with a cheap camera, you can't do it with a better camera, either."
In other words, it isn't the camera, it's the photographer.…"
SRT30D replied to Gina Jacobsen's discussion Does anyone know of any legitamate photo contests to enter for free?"You could try this- though it's not really a 'contest', the prize winners are selected by the general populace, most votes…"
SRT30D replied to Gina Jacobsen's discussion Color editing for clients request problem..."It sounds to me as though you're creating the problem yourselves in that you're editing the pictures to create what you think the customer will want.
Solve this by creating a viewing album for your clients to choose a style from.…"
SRT30D replied to Robert Smith's discussion (UK) Which would be more beneficial. Study Photography at university or work my way up from the bottom out of college?"I'll second what Nathan said, with a bit of additional advice. Being: decide what kind of photography you want to do. Your question leaves a lot open to interpretation.
If you want to do news (my background), and if you have a college…"
SRT30D replied to Tracy DePaola's discussion What do you like better CS5 or Lightroom?"Speaking to your question, I have to admit, "Neither," since I don't use either. I've been using the same PaintShopPro8 since it came out long ago. PSP does all you ask but facial recognition- and why is that a…"

SRT30D commented on David Stutz's blog post Color? or B&W?"Once upon a time in a world far, far away, B&W was the colour de jour... then, as life often does, people grow up and color becomes the medium used to express ideas and news.
But all things go full circle. Life is like that- what goes…"
SRT30D commented on Stephanie Rux's blog post What gives a person the right to be called a Photographer?"You ask a very interesting question, Stephanie.
As a news photographer, I refered to myself as a 'photographer' when working. But now that I'm retired, still 'into' photography and occasionally selling news shot…"

Jason said… Hi there, thanks very much for your helpful response to my thread the other day. I was just wondering whether you could send me your real name for referencing in the bibliography of my assignment? I do understand, however, if you wish to remain anonymous.
Many thanks for your help,

- Thank you, Earl- I dunno how much I'm going to be able to teach anyone, but I can share experiences- been shot at and missed (thank God!), slugged, almost peed on (and missed!), locked in and locked out of shoots, climbed fences, gone where I wasn't invited and lost gear at the worst possible times- not to mention had batteries die at even less opportune times. Again, thank you for the invite. :-D

Is it safe to say that AF-S 55-200mm f4-5.6G IF-ED DX VR enough for events such as weddings, birthdays and portraiture? There are reviews that the 55-300mm has problem in focusing at 300mm focal length."
