Pokročilé ostření

Pokročilé ostření Namáčknout, počkat na tón signalizující zaostření a domáčknutím vyfotit. To je denní chleba všech fotografů a možná si myslíte, že na tom není co vysvětlovat. Jenže v praxi to tak jednoduché není. Ač se autofokus neustále vylepšuje, okolní svět má pořád náskok a určitě si vzpomenete na situace, kdy automatické ostření selhalo. Správným nastavením a technikou lze počet podobných případů co nejvíce eliminovat. Říká se, že opakování je matkou moudrosti, takže se budu opakovat a připomenu informace ze třetího dílu seriálu Fotografujeme sport. A nebude to asi nejzáživnější čtení, ale teorie je důležitá. Základní rozdělení ostření by bylo na manuální a automatické. Při manuálním ostření záleží zejména na šikovnosti, velikosti hledáčku a ostrém zraku a tudíž nemá smysl se jím moc zabývat...

Keeping Your Bride Happy During One of the Most Stressful Times of Her Life

Most brides have been dreaming about their wedding long before they get engaged. They dream of how their wedding will look, what type of dress they will walk down the aisle in, imagine their first dance. In their minds, it’s all a beautiful fairy tale. They have no idea how stressful the planning can be. They don’t think about how disappointing it will be to find out that their dream wedding is going to cost 5 times their budget, and every single decision they make is going to be giving up a little part of their dream, another budget cut. It’s no wonder perfectly pleasant people can become ‘bridezillas’ without meaning to...
