Yes, this is a good idea. If you do that, seed the proposal with the new top level posts generated here from the Q&A category. Skip the other categories for now. Contests is cute, but there ...
Unfortunately, activity on Photography & Video Codidact is very low. Outside of Meta, the community has attracted a total of 41 top-level posts across 4 different categories since being started...
When we launched this community, we did not yet have the ability to set different reputation grants for different categories. We've had this for a while but we failed to follow up before now, sorr...
I am not a video expert, but I am sometimes surprised to see interlaced footage in professionally-produced videos shot with high-end cameras. This often gives "combing" artifacts to videos (Youtube...
It's a posed artistic license or body sign language that reveals the condition of the hands and fingers which often reveal something. It might be said that it is a caring pose with the dominant ha...
Why? Probably because the photographer told the subjects to do that. Personally, I don't think it looks that great. The bottom picture seems better to me than the others in that regard, but I can...
What's this pose called? Let's not call it crossing your palms! Anyways, in portraits, the subject usually never shows hands. Then why clinch your hands, then center them in the center of the port...
I removed the answer because it didn't actually address the question. The newer answer had nothing to do with the decision to remove the earlier answer, except for the fact that it bumped the ques...
I wrote an answer a year ago to a question about how much power some consumer device uses. My answer was basically to measure it, gave a starting explanation of how to do that, and suggested to as...
The good folk at CamDo have tabulated current consumption in older units. Power Consumption by GoPro Camera Model You can see the HERO9 battery life details at the listing at the GoPro Support kn...
One easy to implement idea is to showcase photographs from this community, say a photo of the week initiative. Below I outline the suggested process: We find photos of a reasonable quality (not ...
Because of compression and different sizes. The original JPG image you are referring to is 1080 x 790 pixels in size, for a total of 777k pixels. Since the image is true color, there would be 3 b...
There are a number of variables involved, including varying levels of compression. One big factor is screen size vs. image size. A picture displayed on a computer screen will often be resized to fi...
I take a picture on my phone, view that picture on my computer, then screenshot that picture. Then that screenshot's file size can ≥ original picture's file size! How? Why? This feels illogical! I...
Different flashes will have different brightnesses, so you don't want to fix the complete exposure across all the pictures. You should fix the ISO to a good value for your camera. Set it to 400 i...
I have a Canon EOS 2000d, and am a total noob to photography. I basically all my life just used cams doing everything automatically (and being unhappy with wrong focus or bad color settings etc ;))...
Codidact's communities have a lot of great content that is helping people on the Internet. Our communities are small, though, and sustainable communities depend on having lots of active, engaged p...
Dots and pixels can be the same or different, depending on context. In a computer file, an image is usually made up of a rectangular array of color (or gray) values. We call those pixels, for "pi...
In either a print job or a digital picture at the smallest level there are individual color markers, in print that is called a dot, and on a computer, it's called a pixel. The difference between th...
I've read many explanations, but either they all are too abstruse or they gainsay each other. Why Dots Per Inch Isn't Pixels Per Inch A dot refers to ink density, effectively; a pixel refers to...
I have a GoPro 9 and it has the option to wake at a specific time and take a photo/video/timelapse. However, some of the timelapses use 90% of a full battery (official GoPro model) and in the stand...
July 10th, 2021 Parc Jean-Talon, Montreal, QC It's very rare for me to wake up early enough to get a picture of a sunrise (sunsets are a completely different story), but every once in a while t...
I am not sure if this question is off-topic here or not (probably it is and if so please help me find the correct network site, if there is one) What was the first film with subtitles in the histo...
You could do it either way, but it is usually better to apply effects that depend on the size or resolution of the picture on the final-sized picture. This is assuming, of course, that proper anti...
For sharpening photos out of a DSLR, where the final result will be at a lower size compared to the DSLR's output (for example, for publishing on the web), is it better to: apply (possibly slightl...
