in reply to: Why ETTR May Be More Important Than Ever #50536Why ETTR May Be More Important Than Everon: March 17, 2022 at 3:34 pm
By using Aperture Priority with exposure compensation you get in the ballpark quickly in different lighting conditions. Just adjust the exposure compensation until you start seeing the blinkies (with a Sony camera) and then back off if needed. While I just shoot in manual, this way would be slightly faster, especially if you are shooting handheld and have to change the ISO. I am probably going to give Harvey’s method a try to see if it is a little easier.
in reply to: Best Dates to Visit Sedona for Fall Color? #43591Re: Best Dates to Visit Sedona for Fall Color?Reply #1 on: September 13, 2021 at 2:52 pmOf course. I just want to find out when the “average” peak is for fall colors in Sedona and the West Fork of Oak Creek Canyon. Came back from Anchorage and Denali National Park a week ago and managed to hit peak color in Denali through a combination of research and luck. The shuttle bus driver going deep into Denali told us the color wasn’t nearly as good when he was last there 4 days earlier.
Re: Sony A1Reply #2 on: July 27, 2021 at 5:30 pmI was just about to buy the A7R IV but decided to wait for A7R V based on a couple of comments from other photographers:
Don Smith said (in comments at end of article) that he is using A1 and leaving A7R IV as backup for landscape:
My Thoughts on the Sony Alpha 1 Camera for Landscape and Action Photography
Bernard Languillier advised against the Sony A7R IV at this time and said he was never happy with the color. I read other comments about the color filters on the sensor being better on the Sony A1:

Re: dogReply #4 on: July 21, 2021 at 11:04 amIf you move the dog over by the bench he would fit in a lot better. In his current position he is a distraction.

in reply to: Best Standard Zoom for Landscape Sony A7r IV #41360Re: Best Standard Zoom for Landscape Sony A7r IVReply #6 on: July 16, 2021 at 3:49 pmI tested 2 copies of my Canon 24-70 when I bought it. Excellent from 24-50, but after about 55 mm both were too soft in the corners for my taste. Not sure if this is due to the nature of any zoom or whether newer designs or more expensive lenses would do better. The Sigma 24-70 and Sony 24-105 are also on my radar. Thanks for input.
in reply to: Edison’s Florida Lab #41199Re: Edison’s Florida LabReply #7 on: July 13, 2021 at 5:44 pmLoved this photo, it brought back memories. My father taught chemistry at university level for over 25 years and was in the “chem study” films made in the 1960’s at Harvey Mudd College.

in reply to: Another Cracker House #40134Re: Another Cracker HouseReply #9 on: June 11, 2021 at 2:18 pmI had never heard of a “Cracker House” and had to look it up:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida_cracker_architecture
I especially enjoyed the description of a “Florida Cracker”:
By the 1760s, the ruling classes, both in Britain and in the American colonies, applied the term cracker to Scots-Irish, Scottish, and English American settlers of the remote southern back country, as noted in a letter to the Earl of Dartmouth: “I should explain to your Lordship what is meant by Crackers; a name they have got from being great boasters; they are a lawless set of rascalls on the frontiers of Virginia, Maryland, the Carolinas, and Georgia, who often change their places of abode.” The word was later associated with the cowboys of Georgia and Florida, many of them descendants of those early colonizers who had migrated south.

in reply to: Petrified Forest and the Painted Desert #37889Re: Petrified Forest and the Painted DesertReply #10 on: April 30, 2021 at 2:26 pmI have been there. Like this photo very much but agree about more space especially at the top and to a lesser degree at the bottom.
Re: keldReply #11 on: April 26, 2021 at 3:14 pmI like the color version a lot better with the fading paint on the door contrasting with the the green grass.
