Manual Photography Made Easy

One of my main goals is to try to use my beloved DSLR camera's manual settings as often as possible since I believe it makes for great practice and better creative shots.  And although I did attend a photography workshop, there are still times when a review is in order now and again.

And so it was with great surprise that I was able to come across Living in the Stills, a tumbler-based blog dealing in photography.

And boy!  Was I so happy I did since I was able to find this...



Thank you Mig Yatcho for creating such a handy tool!  Prints come in portfolio (11x16), small (15x22) and large (23x34); and are available at his Zazzle Store (click here).  =)

  2. When we were in college, we used to carry a manual photography cheat sheet everyday. We used film kase that time, and sobrang gastos if makita mo na palpak yung shots. Buti ngayon uso na dslr, mas pwede na paglaruan talaga ang manual settings.

  4. It's great that there's a cheat sheet for manual photography. :) I only have a point and shoot now but I am saving up to have a DSLR someday. I'm just worried that I wouldn't be able to utilize it well so I'm glad that there's a tool like this. :)

  11. Hello! Thanks for dropping by my blog. To answer your question about chocolate-covered cherries, you can opt not to use oil, but the chocolate will be thick and harder to work with. Mas madali din tumigas. :-)

  13. oh, this is handy :) I love photography too but I am nowhere near even an amateur ufff. I'd like to learn more but perhaps when little one is already big enough and would give me time to tinker with the camera :)
