I know this sort of thing requires some time and it's very helpful. --- Grieve not for that which you cannot do but rejoice in that which you can.

We often need these terms when discussing how a picture is taken and commenting on a picture in the GLOBOgallery. For film photography we use the term "shutter speed", never heard of "TV = Time Value" before but times and jargon do change a lot! :-) I upgraded my digital camera a bit, gave the old one to my niece, now have to start from scratch learning all the new menus, symbols, settings and buttons. I'm very impatient with handbooks but suppose I'll get into using the thing properly after about a year! Further, I have "bricklayer hands" and those buttons are getting smaller : - ( RR --- Rudolf "Rangutan" Graspointner Reply    Reply with quote    Contact rangutan
