I have to admit that I am not as active as I was at the another side. Tone down myself liao. Getting tired of all these discussions, feeling unappreciated by the committee who value money more than pure knowledge.

Anyway, I will help regardless but only to a few people whom I know.

was surprise to hear that from most people. also saddened by this type of sharing. not a good way to share.

should have join our sessions because we don't teach you to use P mode. we teaches you to use M mode and which naturally you'll progress to your own My-mode.

most of the time i use M, S and A mode. these modes are functionalities to a photog. it's important the photog knows the modes and uses the modes he/she prefers given a situation. i don't tell people to use P mode.

as of metering,...... one have to understand how the type of metering work. from there by shooting more with various metering...... one will come to know how and know which is best for his/her own. in short there's no specific ones to use. it all depends on situations.

For what I see what wrong with P mode? In the end is the moment or results tat matter... I am rite to say tat...:knock1::knock1:

when P means u let the cam take care of the rest. so it may not be what you want in the end and the man behind the camera has no controls. besides the joy of photography is also knowing your camera. squeezzzzz it a little to give you greater pictures! not letting it squeeze you as in the end usually it's not what you wanted.

i only use P if someone else shooting me with my camera but usually it's not the case.

i mean for a photography course you would wanna teach someone to just use P mode but rather go thru the basic relationship of shutter and aperture rite?

[excelglsi]

I got a friend who attended a course i tin was something about the arts of seeing thing... He teaches the student using P mode... Why u may ask... He is teaching u the way to see thing and not by thinking too much on wat setting to set. By than u have miss the thing u want to shoot....:sweat:

For mi I tin its the wrong concept tat photographer are not allow to use P mode only Newbie do... I tin its not right. Am i saying the wrong tin again...hehe

As Jacob say correct mi if iam wrong...:cheers:



How about an outing just by using the "disposable " film camera... We will see how we go from there.... :rofl:

all my film compacts are auto :P

not using compact. we should use the same ones eg disposable camera as quote by excelglsi.

agree with kopiokaya..... develop at KT straight after shoot.

Yes, this is a true test of your 'kang hu', not your equipment. All of us use the same disposable, same lens, same film, same lab and same papers. This is the ultimate assessment of our ability to see and to compose.

Best of all, no digital means cannot PP. For those of you who always rely on Photoshop or similar software..... this is the time to unveil your weaknesses.
