why is it become a habit of photographers and self-proclaimed photographers of not including the tech data of the pictures they post? isnt it universal protocol ng mga professional photographers to include the image data: aperture, speed etc, lalo na pag proud sila sa trabaho nila.

unless kung film slr ang gamet nila or PnS excusable pa coz walang data imprint and walang diaphragm respectively.

wala lang. nakakapagod lang magtanong kung anung f stop at speed at ISO at white balance, focal length etc ginamet nila e.

lam mu yun? when you're reading a photography magazine diba nakalagay sa caption ng mga pictures yun.

... not really... :) I have several photography magazine subscriptions and they don't post those data with the pictures (unless for subscriber contests like the one in Popular Photography). I'm looking at one (Digital Photo Pro) right now just to verify what I am saying (para hindi mapahiya), and yup, there is no such data.

Cheers! And there's no harm to ask...

BTW, there's no such thing as "self-proclaimed photographers." There are only photographers. If you take photographs, then you are a photographer. Now it only differs if you shoot good, or not.

not all photographers Derek...i dont alter the EXIF of my shots....i even put the information when i post some of my pixs.

You are right. I also don't alter the EXIF data of my pics and you can easily google for programs that you can use to read EXIF data of photos. Some will even work with IE so you can right-click on the photo while viewing IE and it will show you the EXIF data.

Usually, the EXIF file is left out of the file because it adds to the size of the image being uploaded. generally, if you're photo is quite big (the usual size for a photo being uploaded on the web is 70dpi @ 100kb more or less) then the upload time of the page will slow down =)

ok lang sya if you're using a cable or DSL connection but then slower connections will suffer..

besides, as Marco stated: "There's no harm in asking" =) they would be more than willing to share the information with you if available

HTH =)

Here (http://www.digitalphotographer.com.ph/forum/showthread.php?t=827&highlight=Exif) is a similar thread on this Derek. :Smoke:

Sakin lang is, why bother unless the publisher/editor/critic asks for it or if you're trying to teach someone...
