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.

I generally know exactly the settings I want going into a given scenario. If someone knows one of their settings truly doesn't matter I won't blame them for using auto, but I think some people do themselves a disservice over relying on it and never mastering handling everything.

I can't imagine getting some of the shots I got as well as I got them (especially in tough situations like concerts) without manually controlling everything.
