Essential The Official Photography Thread

Pulled out my Canon 30D to make sure it was still working properly, both batteries for it were on their last legs. Gonna pick up some Pearstone or Watson replacements as the Canon batteries are ridiculously priced. 7D has 2 batteries that are still going strong after 3-4 years of use.

In TTL mode, they use the most juice.
Gotta have a few batteries for speed lights. Or get a strobe.

Loving my Leica

 

[NerdNash]

For certain instances I agree. Like with a model, landscapes, etc.
But run and gun shooting. I use either shutter/aperture or straight auto.

I’ve been using auto until i learn more.
