Firstly, it isn't a port: it's a socket (honest). Secondly, the phone may well be waterproof but the USB socket will probably not work correctly when wet. Always make sure it is dry and clean ...

Yes it is. Unless of course you are talking about depth of field.

Only as far as DOF is concerned of course.

It is important to distinguish between shooting SOOC Jpegs and shooting raw. In the first instance, the ISO sensitivity setting (as the ISO call it in ISO12232:2019) behaves exactly like with a ...

Or perhaps they simply believe that it depends.

My preferred approach, perfected over seventy years, is to set the appropriate shutter speed, aperture and ISO sensitivity for the subject. It is quick, simple and almost infallible.

Interesting. Coming from a film background I too have been a little confused and concerned about this apparent obsession with the low-light performance of digital cameras but you make a good point. ...

To me, it looks like an excellent representation of the dimly light interior of a church during a sombre ceremony. It certainly does not look obviously underexposed to me. It certainly would not ...

Enjoy using more for what? It totally depends on the job. That is why I use both.

I take your point regarding perspective. That is why cinematographers, for example, shoot the same scene differently for IMAX, Cinemascope and television viewing. They take into account the size ...

With all due respect, you are confusing two quite different things: perspective and rectilinear distortion. A rectilinear lens yields images where straight features, such as the edges of walls of ...

Neither cropping or the focal length of the lens used has any effect on perspective in an image. The perspective in an image is entirely determined by the distance from the camera to the subject. T ...

The answer is simple: increase the illumination of the background and reduce the illumination of the subject. And while you are at it use asymmetrical lighting on the subject to produce some 3D ...

Not quite.

And yet most people viewing most photographs under most circumstances could not even begin to guess what size the sensor used was. Go figure.

That is not a rhetorical question. It is a matter of fact, unaffected, question. You say that it matters who sets the ISO or how it is done. If you really believe that you will be able and willing ...

Which is when we move from craft to art.

I have.

I wouldn't argue with that.

Please explain why.
