The UK mag, Outdoor Photography, has a feature that recommends outdoor
photo op locations around the UK along with sample pics from the
areas. They give a map segment and then name the routes to the sites, give
subject recommendations, best time of year and day to shoot, and good
places to

I recall having read the cameras are designed for 100.000 exposures.
My D did 20.000 the first year. Without any problems what so ever. Good
stuff!
I'd say the offered DS may have 75%-90% left - that is 30.000 - 90.000
exposures before it eventually dies.
2300 on the clock - probably meaning
Brilliant shot brillinat exxpressions - a bit soft - but that makes it very

Certain pro cameras have a designed life cycle of 100,000 or 150,000
actuations on the shutter (Like the EOS 1's, EOS 3, F100, F5, F6 etc).
This doesn't mean that cameras with 'lower-end' shutters aren't capable
of that, just that the pro bodies are designed to go that far and keep
ticking.
that depends on the type of external meter you use. When I go skiing at the
end of this month I will probably take an incident meter and shoot Tri-X
through a medium yellow filter. In this case I will set the ISO on the meter
differently to compensate for the filter, but I will not compensate for

Probably due to all those public schools. Or something like that.
