Title: Tutorials and Guides
Post by: Russell on June 03, 2011, 13:49:57 PM

Couldn't remember seeing a general Tutorials/Guides thread for Photography related stuff and thought it might be a good thing to start.

First one to get us started, watched this last night and thought it was quite good wrong time of year for it really but worth watching all the same.

I guess useful links would be:

www.photography-on-the.net - useful mega forum....

and http://www.the-digital-picture.com/ - I find the way most lenses have been reviewed by one guy in quite a thorough and uniform manner pretty useful in determining the ins and outs of each lens, even though he almost always recommends lenses that are at the professional end...

I get the newsletter they send out with tips. it seems 9/10 things they write are common knowledge but then you do get some good gems that are useful :)

Quite true, but sometimes its good to be reminded of the basics or someone else interpertation of them.

This is another one that can be quite interesting:

Here's one for "Liquid Pour and Splash Photography Technique Using Continuous Light"

Was more looking for a flash based one as I'm trying to learn my flash photography at the mo, but I'll probably give this a go at some point.

Could be some other interesting stuff on there so I'll give it a good going over.

Some of his photos on there are really good, odd couple that are the HDR is too obvious and just look slightly wrong but overall quite good, not tried HDR stuff yet
