Flash Photography with Canon EOS Cameras

I’d forgotten about this. I downloaded it last year, meaning to read it, but never got to it, and then forgot. But if you have a Canon digital camera and a flash unit, then this article is definitely for you. I’d imagine it would have to be the most comprehensive guide to Flash photography with [...]

Canon EOS Digital Photo Guidebook for Professionals

Just to show I’m not anti Canon (ha ha, that sounds like a space weapon doesn’t it), I ran across this publication on the net and it looks really good. It’s a largish pdf (7.6MB), aimed at the professional digital EOS shooter. That’s a pretty big target market, and I’m sure a lot of keen [...]

Yet another blog!

Welcome to Photografica Weblog. This is my third blog. The first was a blogger blog, and while it worked OK, I was never enamored by the administration side of it. I found I hardly ever posted and so eventually I thought I’d abandon it to the mercies of cyberspace. I imagined it to be a [...]
