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.

“You aren’t a proper photographer if you aren’t using fully manual settings”

Manual mode has its moments but auto/semi auto modes are not something that will make you ‘unprofessional’

I've used aperture priority mode since 2007, when I started taking photography seriously as a 17 year old. Fucking around with changing the aperture AND the shutter speed might make you miss the shot. At the same time, I obviously like the amount of control manual does afford, but as with all things, it's situational.

AP mode is my favorite, it's my most used one shooting digital for sure.
