| Re: Photography techniques
Like Bruce I'm just an enthusiastic amateur but I always take lots of shots depending on the subject.
When shooting birds I quite often have the camera on high speed continuous shooting mode which can result in a lot of images. I use one shot AF mode for macro subjects but even then I will take several shots of the same subject from varying distances and angles.
I work on the principle that it's not costing me any more to take five shots than it does one unless you count wear and tear on the camera shutter etc. It's surprising how different the shots can be even when taken from the same angle and distance and I like the luxury of being able to choose which one I keep.
Five or six hundred shots is not uncommon for me in a days shooting and if it's birds in flight I have been known to take over 1800 in a day. |
