I can't seem to get my macro shots in focus..
It looks good through the viewfinder but when i snap the picture
it is either all blurry or only part of the shot is sharp. Any ideas?

I used to use an ambient light meter...
since going digital i don't use it anymore but
now when using the meter in the camera I am getting
inconsistent results. Any tips

I am using a Canon 20D and seem to mostly have the problem outdoors
in and out of shaded areas

whats a podcast???

whats a ???

It's like a radio show


Podcasting is a method of publishing files via the Internet, allowing users to subscribe to a feed and receive new files automatically. It became popular in late 2004 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2004), intended largely for downloading audio files onto a portable audio player. However, listening to podcasts does not require a portable device and it is not traditional "broadcasting" to a mass audience at a fixed time.

The word "podcasting" was coined in February 2004 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/February_2004), combining (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portmanteau)"broadcasting" with the name of Apple Computer's (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Computer) iPod (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPod) audio player (although podcasting was not invented by Apple, nor do podcasts require a portable player or Apple software).

It is distinct from other types of online audio delivery because of its subscription model, which uses the RSS 2.0 file format. Podcasting enables independent producers to create self-published, syndicated "radio shows", and gives broadcast radio programs a new distribution channel. Listeners may subscribe to feeds using "podcatching" software (a type of "aggregator (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/News_aggregator)"), which periodically checks for and downloads new content. Some podcatching software is also able to synchronise (copy) podcasts to portable music players. Any digital audio player (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_audio_player) or computer with audio-playing software can play podcasts. The same technique can deliver video files, and by 2005 some aggregators could play video as well as audio.

Haha ... I would love to listen to Bloo Dog recounting his various wedding photography horror stories.

Still, I don't know how useful that might be for content of a technical nature, that might even be enriched with images for illustration.

Best regards,
Andy
