froknowsphoto.com Click Here to see more tips for using your batteries in the cold. Have you ever wondered why it seems like your batteries drained quicker in the cold and what you can do to keep your batteries warm? Many people who shoot outside are faced with needing to bring more batteries as it seems that they tend to die quicker in the cold. Here are a few tips you can use to ensure that your batteries last longer outside. 1. Don’t keep your cameras and batteries in your car or in a cold room. I know it sounds simple but when you leave your camera in the car or garage in the cold the batteries will not be as responsive.

@IndrekValdek You’re very welcome! It’s a beautiful area; very calming and relaxing too.
I’d really love to take down there some photos – with mountains and lakes and so on. Purely amazing. Thank again for your video, mr Imre.
High quality landscape pictures:

@linkerror10 … 2) Google “hyperfocal distance” and study it. The DOF chart for your lens(es) will give you a great idea to begin with. Also, using small apertures (about f/11 on 4/3 and f/13 on APS-C sensors) might lead to diffraction effects thus a slight softening of your image (although generally not major). Most lenses are sharpest around f/4 to f/8 (depending on the lens), which is why I prefer to use that range most often. Hope that helps; keep an eye out for a vid on this sometime soon.
@linkerror10 Hi! Great question. The answer can be a little involved and I’ve been meaning to do a video regarding this area (and hyperfocal distance) but in short it depends on what focal length (FL) and aperture you’re using. For example, if I’m shooting at 12mm with f/4 and I’m focused to 3m then my DOF is from 1.389m to infinity. The longer the FL the farther away the nearest focus distance. So here’s what I can recommend: 1) look up the DOF table for your len(ses) and …
Shooting landscape in f5.6 is a new to me. Wont it throw many things out of focus due to shallow DOF? I guess f8-f16 would be ideal, please correct me if I am wrong
@DavidHeatonPhoto … writing a book or two (or even just creating a photo book) and self-publish through an online service like Blurb. Of course, you could sell prints of your work and create various other types of merchandise too, like calendars. If you keep an eye on my blog, I’ll likely write up a post fairly soon on this because I have some additional thoughts, but it’s easier to convey them there than in the comments here.
@DavidHeatonPhoto Well I don’t think I know what is the “best” way but I have some suggestions that might be worthwhile. Above all I wouldn’t say it’s easy to make a living out of it. However, strong dedication and constant marketing (like online [blogs, Flickr, Facebook, Twitter, own website, even YouTube] and to galleries, magazines, stock photo agencies, marketing firms, etc.) would certainly help and in my opinion is a must. In addition, you could also consider…
Hi, ive been shooting for about a year now and have grown to love landscape photography, I was wondering what do you think the best way to get into landscape photography as a career?
@smokycatproductions You’re welcome and thank you kindly for the comment and subscription! 😀
Thank you for the post.
Your vids are very informative, and you have excellent presentation skills!
@wasdanda Hi! That’s basically correct.
Larger aperture (big hole) = small f-numbers like f/1.4 or f/2, and small depth of field (less in focus)
Small aperture (small hole) = larger f-numbers like f/8 or f/11, and larger depth of field (more in focus)
If you want to learn more about aperture, I have a video on that; see episode 21.
hey,have a question? if f number goes down like f5.6 then the depth of field is also going down, is’n it correct? so you should you use large f number which means smaller aperture size for large area in focused? 7.14 in video,
I am a beginner.
@3rcflyer But I wish you good luck with the E-1. Even if it’s only 6MP, you could still make really nice 11×14″ prints with it.
@3rcflyer I will add this though. I still have my E-500 which has an 8MP CCD and I personally like its color reproduction and “feel” of its images better than my E-3. It doesn’t have the dynamic range and lower noise leves of the E-3 (amongst other things), but I’ve found that the images straight out of the E-500 don’t need as much tweaking compared to the other.
@3rcflyer Hi, thank you for the comment! I did a little online research and found a great article from a semiconductor manufacturer discussing CCD vs. CMOS; I posted the link on my Twitter and FB pages. Although I don’t own either camera, the E-410 might “win” in regard to image quality, simply due to using newer technology than the aging E-1. That aside, I do agree with you that many E-1 users love the cam and I’ve seen such comments too (and great images).
@geru2000 Thank you again geru2000! Will do!
What can I say another great video on photography. Keep them coming,
@robheald1
– Turn the camera to portrait orientation (you get a little extra resolution this way when the images are finally stitched)
– Keep the same focus and focal length for all images
– Try to keep the same exposure for each shot (or very similar; most software can compensate a little)
- Overlap around 20-30% of each image
– For best results use a tripod, but many programs can deal quite well with hand held shots too.
And have fun on your trip!
@robheald1 You’re welcome Rob! Glad you liked. There are several ways to stitch together landscape photos. Photoshop has the ability (File > Automate > Photomerge) and there are some software products that specifically do this; one I use often is called Panorama Maker by Arcsoft. I’m planning an episode on doing panoramas, but that may be a little while. nonetheless, here are a few tips (in the next comment):
Thank you so much imre
just in time for my trip on Wednesday 😉 quick question, how do you go about stitching landscape photos? And another amazing video
@KennethKramm Hello Ken! Thank you again sir! I had a request about a week or so ago for macro photography and if all goes as planned, that’ll actually be my next episode. Saw your videos too, but I think you’re already doing a great job! Hopefully though you’ll find something useful in the next show.
@JunichiK94 Ha! I meant to do it earlier but I went to watch a movie first. All of the links should be working now. I had tons of fun out there, really good weather too!
@JunichiK94 You’re very welcome!
Imre, you are an excellent teacher. Thanks. Your recommendations helps me a great deal. Suggestion for future Youtube: Macrophotography. I’m most interested in photographing insects. See for example my Youtube titled “Dragonfly World.” for the type of photography and videos I want to enhance.
Dude I’m just digging the phillies gear!!!!!!
@kay188 Actually electrons don’t slow down. The warming factor is connected to the chemical reaction formula, where at lower temperature the chemical reactions slow down, so the batteries will give less power output. And this is, why in camera the battery is located in the grip, so your palm will keep it warm when you hold the camera.
Guys dont keep it on your pants, u may burn your balls…. seriously
Great tip! Too bad I don’t have an I Shoot RAW hat to use..
In what res are these videos compressed?
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Haarghh. (Ow.)
@dachevashe def!!!
Actually, you shouldn’t wrap batteries in additional isolator like your hat, because it misses the point a bit, if you want your body to help, you don’t need to isolate the batteries from it further. I just keep ’em inside the inner pocket and they’re warm and ready to go.
thumbs up if you want uranium camera batteries ! 😛
Best to have 2 batteries and swap them back and forth.
Use lithium AA batteries they work in lower temperatures
Hey Jared I can not decide which lens should be my first L lens. I have got enough money to buy the 70-200mm f/2.8 IS but Im not sure if I should get now. I was going to get a 24-70mm but the mk ii is coming out soon so I will wait for that. I shoot all kind of photo portraits, actions, landscapes. Currently I own a 7D and a 50mm 1.8 which I will be upgrade to full frame body (5D mk3) when that available.
You’re like the jigsaw doll riding that bike 😀

don’t throw batteries in a pocket that also includes spare change…. It formed a circuit, heated up the coins and burned the crap out of my leg
