    Canon powershot s1 no viewfinder picture

    Try that display button at the bottom. I don't have this thing I just pulled up the button diagram and I'd give that a shot first. When you use the screen instead of the eyepiece that is called live view so look for something like that in the menus if the display button doesn't do it.

    Looking to get a DSLR, and I have no idea what I'm doing.

    Hi I'm new here and I'm a photographer so I figured I pay my way forward some by sharing what I know in a few threads. Get hundred dollar rebel from ebay and a 50mm 1.8. Spend no more than $200. This is for Canon, for Nikon get the equivalent. OK, for brands the rule I live by is that canon...

    TIFF v RAW

    You can't shoot TIFFs in camera. In Camera you cam shoot RAWs or Jpgs. Raws are the proprietary file types for each maker. Canon uses cr2, cr1, etc. I think Nikon uses nef files. These are the files that are images and numbers as the camera saw them. Most software can not read these files...

    What\'s the story on expensive memory cards for SLR cameras?

    Hi I'm new here and I'm a photographer so I figured I pay my way forward some by sharing what I know in a few threads. With memory cards the thing you pay for most is the speed. I shoot sports and can easily go through 15,000 shutters a weekend. I used several 4 gig cards. The speed is affected...
