Photography Tips (Page 2)

I added a Packing for a Landscape Photography Trip page to the tips section of the site.

Posting the American Southwest Photo Gallery generated some interest in what gear I took with me, so I'm sharing this along with the American Southest Grand Tour itinerary I followed.

As I mentioned in the Air Show Pictures and Photography Tips, a high-mileage 1Ds Mark III was DOA at a distant event I was attending. Had I not taken a second camera, I would have no pictures from my 10 travel hour trip.

If you do not have a second camera body and lenses (or third if you shoot with two at a time), give consideration to buying or renting them for your next big event/vacation. And if renting, remember that summer is the busy season for the photography gear rental season. Roger at LensRentals.com recently noted on his site that reservations are an important step to insure you get the gear you want when you want it.

Summer vacations are often a great time to try out that new piece of gear you've been eyeing up. New gear adds fun to an already fun time.

The Canon Digital Learning Center has posted 5 printable (PDF), trifold guides:

Canon EOS 7D Autofocus Modes
EOS DSLR Video Recording
Canon Speedlite 580EX II Modes and Functions
DPP (v 3.8.x) Workflow and Keyboard Commands
Canon TC-80N3 Timer/Remote Controller

Maybe its my guy-perspective, but ... who doesn't love speed, power and precision? Spring and summer mean air show season and air shows are filled with speed, power and precision. So, today I bring you a gallery of Air Show Pictures and Photography Tips. The air show photography tips are below most pictures in this gallery.
