Motion Preview

1. One might want to slow down their shutter speed to capture motion in the background rather than freeze it.
2. You can have the subject or camera move
3. You want a mode in which you have full control over the shutter speed.
4. You can use a neutral density filter, a smaller aperture, or a decreased ISO.

5. The starting ISO should be between 1/60 and 1/15
6. Because it is the fastest point to focus to.
7. With continuous drive, multiple photos are taken, so you can't mess up the shots as easily.

8. The AI Servo auto focus mode constantly focuses on a target subject so that the subject will be in focus.
9. Since the camera is continuously focusing, it is easier to capture a moving subject in focus.

10. The BBF will continuously focus, and separate the process in focusing manually with a half-button press, which is good for moving subjects.
11. The BBF will not be good for a still subject because the camera will keep focusing, looking for a moving subject where there is not, so the picture will be out of focus.

Wireless Sync and Remotes

1. Two, one for the flash and one for your hand.
2. A PocketWizard transmits signals via radio signals.
3. 10 channels are available
4. The led on top will indicate if it is set to receive.
5. You need three Plus X Pocket wizards, one for the camera, one for the flash, and one for yourself.

3. If you press CMD and ' at the same time, a virtual copy will be made of the selected photo.
4. With virtual copies, you can export multiple photos at the same time.
5. If you delete the master copy of a photo, then the virtual copy will be deleted as well.

Rights managed photos are managed so that the people who use it are managed and so that not everyone can openly use them.

If I take pictures in an art museum which allows photographs to be taken and I photograph some paintings or sculpture, can I sell the photographs?
