5 Secret Tips to Take Sharp Photos Using Any Camera | Become a photographer with Shubham Part-6

  1. Select Maximum AF Points, 1,9,15,61 focus points
    • I make sure that I am making use of all the focus points, to minimize the use of ‘focus and recompose.’ Keeping all the focus points active ensures that you get to use the entire focusing area on the sensor. Whereas, reducing the active focus points makes you focus and recompose the frame, resulting in soft focus.
  2. 1-point AF
    • Assume you are taking a portrait, and in order to achieve crisp focus, you wish to focus on the eye of the subject. While using autofocus point selection, chances are, the camera might focus on the nose or the lips. The reason this happens is the camera does not know that you want to want to focus on the eye specifically.
  3. Back Button focus technique
    • There are some situations when you try to focus on a subject and the camera takes some time before you can fully press the shutter release button. Alternatively, when you want to take photos in Burst Mode the camera misses focussing on a few shots. You can eliminate these issues and achieve accurate focus by using the back button focus method.
  4. Use of Shutter Priority
    • The basic rule that I start with is using the shutter speed 1/2x of the focal length. For example, while shooting at 50mm, I ensure that I start shooting by using 1/100 sec (1/2×50 = 1/100). In the worst situations, I reduce the shutter speed by 1-2 stops if my lens supports Image Stabilization.
    • Using the Shutter Priority mode ensures that your camera is using a specific shutter speed that results in no or minimum shake in the image. If you wish to freeze the motion of a moving subject, you can dial a fast shutter speed like 1/2000 sec
  5. Take backup shots

Understanding focal length and aperture | Become a photographer with Shubham Part-9

1. What if focal length Focal length is the distance from the center of the lens to the imaging point 2. Focal length and aperture relation: The aperture is a fraction that describes the ratio of aperture (entrance pupil) diameter to focal length. 3. How to differentiate between lenses: Camera name itself says, like: Nikon 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 AF-P. Maximum aperture is f/3.5 but it shifts gradually from f/3.5 at the wide end to just f/5.6 at the longer focal lengths. It can be identified by column as well, like:Nikon 50mm 1:1.4G(Max aperture f/1.4). Nows lets get into the details: 1. What is focal length: Focal length is the distance from the center of the lens to the imaging point (focal plane) where the light for the image is collected. When a lens is described as a "50mm lens," it is referring to its focal length. Different focal lengths create different levels of magnification and change the viewing angle of the resulting photograph. As the focal length value decreases, the ...

Timing breakdown phases explained Here's more information about each of the phases you may see in the Timing tab: Queueing (no-color, transparent, white ) . The browser queues requests when: The request was postponed by the rendering engine because it's considered lower priority than critical resources (such as scripts/styles). This often happens with images. The request was put on hold to wait for an unavailable TCP socket that's about to free up. The request was put on hold because the browser only allows  six TCP connections  per origin on HTTP 1. Time spent making disk cache entries (typically very quick.) Stalled/Blocking (grey) . Time the request spent waiting before it could be sent. It can be waiting for any of the reasons described for Queueing. Additionally, this time is inclusive of any time spent in proxy negotiation.

Three way handshake: 1. A ------SYN------> B 2. B ---SYN + ACK---> A 3. A ------ACK------>  B Detailed version: 1. A ------(SEQ = 100, CTL = SYN)------> B 2. B ---(SEQ=300, ACK=101, CTL=(SYN, ACK)---> A 3. A ------(ACK=301, SEQ=101, CTL=ACK)------>  B The sequence number is the byte number of the first byte of data in the TCP packet sent (also called a TCP segment). The acknowledgement number is the sequence number of the next byte the receiver expects to receive. The receiver ack'ing sequence number x acknowledges receipt of all data bytes less than (but not including) byte number x. Note: There is no such machanism in UDP, this is all based on TCP Thus the TCP handshaking is required for handshaking and flow control. src: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyDqA-dAPW4 https://networkengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/24068/why-do-we-need-a-3-way- handshake-why-not-just-2-way http://www.cs.miami.edu/home/burt/learning/Cs...
