SLR Camera FAQs
A set of frequently whinged^Wasked questions
General
Q. How do I use my SLR camera?
A. Read the manual. They put it in the box for a reason.
Q. Which blur tools did you use on picture x for that fuzzy background?
A. None. Google "Depth of Field".
Canon 5D Mark II
Q. I read a lot of forum comments about poor AF performance on the 5D Mk. II. Is this a real problem?
A. A lot of forum posters don't own a camera. Figure it out.
Q. But the Nikon forums never get this sort of question!
A. That's because Nikon shooters enjoy blurry photographs.
Lenses
Q. Should I buy this off-brand lens for half the price? Will it be better than the L glass in the same focal length? Help me justify my cheapskatedness!
A. No.
Flash
Q. Why does the Canon system require the ST-E2 but Nikon doesn't?
A. Because Canon hates us.
Q. What sort of flashes should I buy for off-camera flash?
A. Cheap second-hand Nikons like the SB26 or SB28.
