Regular photographer, enthusiasts, amateurs all have different natures while handling photography equipments and allied accessories before and during shooting....Sometimes, this may lead to frustration...2. As happened with my friend, who went to shoot group photographs of an institution....generally. he uses manual mode, bracketing exposures, but on that day he used Av mode and the dresses of the groups were of maroon colour and the camera read the darker area thus overexposing the photograph...It was day light, difficult to judge on the monitor...He also forgot to use exp.compensation mode to minus side....thus again had to shoot after a week....wasting his own time, energy and the time of the customer......I feel there are many things we can avoid not forgetting them, but they still happen; what they are:
a) Forgetting to carry the right equipment:
Keeping a slow lens to shoot an event that has very low lighting, carrying a mid range zoom or a telephoto lens for a place where u wud have wanted a wider view , forgetting to carry along a lens, or even a camera or the right choice of camera, if u have more than one.
b) Not carry enough charge and memory:
Keeping almost discharged batteries or not charging long enough, not taking spare sets of charged batteries, not taking additional memory card, even forgetting to insert the memory card in camera after downloading the images in the computer via card reader.
c) Shooting in the wrong settings or formats:
Forgetting to change the settings back to optimal after experimentation, or shooting in the different white balance forgetting to switch over to the existing lighting, thus at least disturbing some frames or whole shoot......to continue....gshroti@gmail.com
