More polarising fun
Posted in Photography on December 30, 2006 | Comments Off
I’ve done some (gasp!) research into polarising filters, and it appears that adding a polariser drops your exposure by as much as 2 stops (each stop represents double the amount of light let into the camera). This means that when I took my photos earlier today, I should have expected the drop in available light [...]
Polarising

The driver CD started up and gave me the options of installing several drivers (sound, video, etc), and I chose ‘One-Touch Setup’. The disc told me ‘You need to install the chipset drivers first. Do that, then choose the [...]
