| I have used both but which film is better?Kodak Professional:125 PX film (Plus-X)400 TX film (Tri-X)What settings do I use for the following:. which [film]. [aperture]. [shutter speed]. [night] vs. [cloudy/dim/low-light day] vs. [sunny day] vs. [indoors w/ artificial light]To take photographs of:- To capture fast-motion objects so object at hand is clear and crisp but background blurred while I'm standing still. How about slow-ish moving objects?- Panning- To write words in the air with a lighter- Taking photographs of carnival lights- Still-life/non-moving objects- Depth of field (shallow, deep)How do I use filters? The higher the number, the more contrast I will get? I haven't really seen them but they look like square papers with different colors (shades of red). Also, what is bracketing, spot-metering, the poor man's zone, and exposure (long, short.. strobe or flash in dark)? How do I control those? For multiple exposures you can have a person running and on the photograph you can see step-by-step the motion of the runner, right?I am a beginner photographer doing b & w shots. As you can see, I am very confused. Thanks in advance for your help!I don't understand how the settings work. If I open up the aperture and have a fast shutter speed both isn't that the best way to capture motion and allowing lots of light in at the same time? So should I always have those settings for taking any photograph? |

| You need to go to amazon.com or ebay and buy a copy of "Object & Image: An Introduction To Photography, Third Edition" by George M. Craven. All your questions will be answered.Next, enroll in photography classes. If there are none available locally then check out The New York Institute of Photography (nyip.com). They offer correspondence courses and have been in business since 1910 so they are reputable.To answer your question in here would require writing a book.Good luck to you and welcome to the fascinating, frustrating world of photography. |

| I think you win the prize for asking the most questions in a single post. Unfortunately most of your individual questions require huge long answers that not many people are going to bother trying to reply. You'll have a better chance of getting your questions answered if you ask fewer, simpler questions.I'd suggest picking up a few books on basic photography.Just show I'm not being a jerk, I'm going to try and answer your first question.Which film is better 125 or 400 - Well, it depends on what you are shooting. The higher ISO film, 400, will be better for low light situations, indoors for example. The 125 is better for brighter, outdoor stuff. |

| I have the k2 camera also. And what i've been doing is studying my manual every chance i get. I have also picked up the magic lantern guide for the t2-k2 cameras. I think all my questions i am beginning to figure out myself. It might helps you lots to look at the instruction book one more time. If i am not reading my books or taking pics,i am here learning all i can from these professionals. |

Everything About Your Wedding
Wedding Marketplace
Buy and sale all wedding related products.
Where and How to Start?
There’s so much to do, it can be mind-numbing. Don’t worry. I planned and held my first wedding in two months and my second wedding in three months. If you have the luxury of a year or more, feel lucky!
Wedding Invitation
Ideally, invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the big day to give guests time to make arrangements to attend and RSVP back to you.
Wedding Attire
Where I come from, buying a tuxedo is virtually unheard of. Renting is probably the way to go to realize the ultimate savings on the groom’s attire.
Wedding Flowers
Cheap doesn't mean that your wedding flowers can't be beautiful. All flowers are lovely no matter what they cost.
Wedding Ceremony Decoration
Most wedding ceremonies are short and sweet, so why spend a majority...
Wedding Music
Music for your wedding ceremony could consist of live or recorded performances.
Wedding Photography
Pictures are priceless, and you want to be sure you have plenty of good pictures of your special day.
Wedding Favors
Some brides don’t like the idea of giving gifts to her guests, but we think it’s a nice gesture as a thank you...
Wedding Food
Wedding food can take a huge chunk out of your wedding budget.
Wedding Cake
Your wedding cake is the centerpiece of the reception. It is a scrumptious dessert as well as part of a tradition
Wedding Party
The question of whether or not to serve alcohol at your wedding is one that can cause dissension in the ranks of family.
