Some Good Tips!

I have never claimed to know what I am doing when it comes to photography, I just know what I have learned by trial and error - I mean 1GB SD/CF cards can let you practice a LOT! :) So when it came to ISO settings, white balance, etc. it was a lot of trial and error, what looked natural, what didn’t blur, what looked good! But today I saw a great tutorial listed on LifeHacker which pointed to a great article on PhotographyJam.com I gave it a read - and must say laid things out in simple terms, no “The camera needs to be held at a 23 degree angle so your flapper lens can capture as much photons and leptons as possible, in turn providing you with the perfect shot” - simple, easy, good explination and good visual example of the terms at work. Definately helps me a bit more in getting the most out of my E-500 which did get un-dusted the other night, but need to work on my late night shots and it heating up pixels in the black areas.
