Saving u time, putting i (eye) 1st.

Everyone seems to think that digital cameras made the photographic process so much cheaper and easier. Well in some respects, yes. The big problem is that you still need to have the camera in front of your face, make a photo and then evaluate it to make some changes if needed. My big issue is with polarising filters – not the filters themselves, but the anoying ptocess of having to screw them on/off to see the difference it might make. even having to take it out of the bag to check the polarized effect is annoying, especially if you have a backpack, like I do.
