A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

“What are the best settings”

I understand that people who are new are the main people who ask it but when I’m asked that I’m just always like “well there is no answer. For this scene I might use something like bla bla bla but you just gotta play with it and find out”

I know a photographer/teacher who got a call one time asking for the best settings. “Well, sounds like you should come take a class!” “No, no, no, I don’t have time for that, just tell me your favorite settings.”

Guy actually said “OK, ISO 100, f/8, and 1/640th, with daylight WB”. 😁🤪

If you are shooting the exact same scene in the exact same weather when the sun is in the exact same position then yes. Otherwise no
