Technical aspects of photography AskMe sought

March 17, 2006 5:48 PM

a two-for-one question.
There was a post on AskMe about camera use that showed up on the side bar awhile back, had to do understanding what the technical aspects of photography meant and how they interrelate. I glanced through the tags and search features and didn't see it, anyone have an idea where it might be? And secondly, is there a way to search past items on the blue's sidebar?

Here is a v. good explanation about "depth of field" (link originally provided by Civil_Disobedient in another AxMe which I can not find right now).

thanks, it was the opening question that threw me off I guess. That was what I was searching for. I have to teach someone tomorrow a little bit about this stuff and while I know what I'm doing those answers where good enough to review in case I forget something.

Still, edgeways raises an interesting point: why not a sideblog archive (especially since it's billed as 'site news and noteworthy posts')?

If you subscribe to it in bloglines, bloglines keeps archives forever.

But I can make an archive of posts available via Blogger.
