Frame
Sample and examples for "Frame"
| Size Matters
|
| (http://photo.net/equipment/digital/sensorsize...) |
| In this article I'm going to take a look at several digital cameras with different physical sensor sizes but all with a nominal 3 megapixel (3MP) pixel count. A standard 35mm frame is 36mm x 24mm, so lets call that "full frame". As you can see from row #1 in the table, all the cameras listed here have sensors smaller than a "full frame sensor". Just looking at the "short" side of the sensor compared to the "short" side of the 35mm frame we can see that the Canon D30 sensor is 0.63x full frame, the Nikon Coolpix 995 0.22x full frame and the Minolta Xi sensor is 0.167x full frame. You can see the difference in relative sensor size from the figure below. It's pretty dramatic! |

| Unusual remappings

| With exactly the same technique as "Little Planet" you can extract a fisheye image from a spherical panorama. Follow all steps until it comes to editing the script. In the script line beginning with the letter p change f2 to f3 and leave v180. Click Ok. Crop the resulting image to a circular frame in your image editor. That's all. |

| Digital weather photography
|
| (http://www.weatherscapes.com/techniques.php?c...) |
| Probably the most important issue is which digital resolution (number of sensor pixels) would give the same resolution as a 35mm-frame of, say, slide film. I believe that a 10 to 12 megapixel digital sensor gives the same resolution as a 35mm film when scanned with a professional film scanner. The highest resolution obtainable from a 35mm frame is about 4000 DPI, which corresponds to an image of about 5000x3000 pixels (15 megapixels). However, most lenses are not capable of obtaining such sharpness in the first place. 12 megapixel sensors are available at the time of this writing (January 2005). |

| Preventing Blown Out Skies
|
| (http://www.great-photography-tutorials.com/bl...) |
| Do you get blown out skies in your landscape photography? Everybody does. You wouldn't think that something so simple could pose so many issues, but exposing the sky correctly along with the rest of the landscape can take a little bit of know-how on the part of the photographer.
Blown out skies result from one of those tricky exposure situations. A daylight sky can be 1-3 stops brighter than the rest of the foreground landscape, or more if the sun is in your frame, so if you meter the entire scene correctly, chances are it will be "blown out" and show up as virtually white in your photograph. |

| COMMON MISTAKES WHEN SHOOTING A CAR
|
| (http://www.carphototutorials.com/common_mista...) |
| In this basic photography tutorial we will go over some of the usual mistakes you are bound to make when first starting in this magnificent niche of photography, go over our list and learn from mistakes both we and other made in the early days, try to avoid them on your next photo shoot.
The image above actually combines various mistakes, among other things the background is too distracting, the car is put right in the middle of the frame, you have a white plaque drawing attention to it in the left corner ... so it is not really a picture worth publishing other than to demonstrate how not to shoot a car at a car show. |

| India Sojourn: Photographing Wildlife
|
| (http://www.usa.canon.com/dlc/controller?act=G...) |
| The dawn light lifted slowly over the vast lake in southern India. Herons, cormorants, and other shorebirds appeared suddenly out of the thick fog, and then disappeared again into the fog. We peered through the mist towards the jungle shoreline, scanning for wildlife. Our boat glided slowly across the magical waters. Our guides spotted the wild elephants first, pointed to two distant shapes far across the water. I lifted my camera, mounted with my 100-400mm lens, and zoomed in. There they were! Two young male Asian elephants, tussling and spraying water from their trunks. The boatman angled us slowly towards them, then cut his engine so we would drift silently. I was able to fire off a dozen frames or so before they headed for the bamboo jungle. It was a magnificent sight, and just as exciting was the trumpeting sound they made! |

| Darkrooms and light
|
| (http://www.silverlight.co.uk/tutorials/darkro...) |
| With all the lighting off a darkroom should be just that - dark. Not quite dark, not very dark just dark, you shouldn't be able to see anything at all.
As a simple check here is what to do.
Turn off all the lights in your darkroom, including any safelighting, but leave lights in adjacent rooms on. Shut yourself in for at least 5 to 10 minutes. Don't stand with your eyes shut otherwise when you open them it will appear to be dark. Let your eyes adjust to the darkness for several minutes then look for light leaks around door and window frames or any other openings into the darkroom. Make a note of any you find and get them covered up. |

| Composing your Pictures
|
| (http://www.kodak.com/eknec/PageQuerier.jhtml?...) |
| Don’t just take pictures. Make pictures.
Point-and-shoot technology has progressed to the point that just about anyone can take pictures that are in focus, properly exposed, and fairly well lit, freeing you to concentrate on artistic aspects.
The challenge that remains is to compose a good picture by controlling how the subject is seen and what emotions are felt by the viewer. This can be done through composition—the relationship of the elements in an image with each other and with the frame.
You know that good feeling you get when you snap a great shot? Well, just follow these guidelines, and you’ll start to see things differently through the viewfinder—and take great shots more often. |

| Top 10 Camera Phone Tips
|
| (http://www.travelphotographers.net/article/EK...) |
| The most common way to improve a camera phone image is to get in closer to the subject. People become very small, very quickly if they are a distance away, and can drop to just a few pixels, especially when displayed on a small screen. So move in close to your subject and let them dominate the frame.
There is, of course, a limit to this … we’ve all seen images of ourselves that were too close: all nose and a tiny body. Maybe you want that effect, and that’s ok too! But the subject is rarely flattered by that kind of image. |
