                        Most of the most commonly-asked questions we answer revolve around photography.

                        Let's face it folks, most of us don't take great photos. Suprisingly, if you have a decent digital camera and a little ingenuity, you can take great photos.

                        Sadly, the biggest reason we reject stories for submission to FSM is because of poor photography.

                        Well, Mark Thompson's latest article on digital photography should help. Pick up the May issue of FSM, or simply click here for the free PDF file:

                        If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!

                        Enjoy,

                        After 20 years of working with 35mm and 3x5 formats, I must confess that I am a complete idiot when trying to shoot close-ups with a digital camera.  I just read Mark's column and I must say that he did a good job of explaining the basics and incorprating the techniques I am familiar with the "hi-tech" jargon of the digital camera.

                        A must read for both experienced celluloid photographers and begginers.

                        Just finished reading the issue yesterday. Can't wait to try some kind of setup to take photos.
