"Brand new to photography, or brushing up on some of the basics? Dont be shy! " Haha, I'm holding nothing back!
Here we go...
Please tell me if my questions make no sense, or if I' m just missing something. :lmao:
1/ What is the difference between ring / micromotor USM?
2/ What on earth is the crop factor, and how does it affect how I shoot photos? (or how lenses work..."effective focal lengths..?" I read a bit, and there just seems to be a lot of flame fests and I understand nothing haha)
3/ In what situations besides taking photos of fast moving things would you want higher shutter speed? ie what benefits are there which I'm not aware of?
4/ a) how does a camera autofocus?
IF it does so by changing the fstop...focal length and aperature
THEN:
b) how do prime lenses autofocus? :/
5/ What is ISO? Happy for a technical explanation, and how is GRAIN generated at higher ISOs.
