Adorama Camera Enters Eleventh Week of '100 in 100' Photography Tips Series

New York, NY (PRWEB) November 20, 2007 -- Adorama Camera today entered the eleventh week of useful photographic advice in "100 in 100: 100 Photography Tips in 100 Days" (http://www.adorama.com/catalog.tpl?article=100in100&op=academy_new), its ongoing series of free photography tips for snapshooters and camera enthusiasts. Started on September 10, tips are posted every day through December 18, 2007. "100 in 100" is the latest addition to the AIRC (Adorama Imaging Resource Center), Adorama Camera's online photo magazine.

This week, visitors will find out: the benefits of shooting vertical photos instead of horizontals; the advantages of RAW and JPEG image file formats; how setting a higher ISO can give you sharper photos; how to edit the "metadata" information that accompanies your photos, and how a photo's pixel count can tell you how big a print you can make. In addition, there will be two new mini-guides: "You need a DSLR if..." and a guide to top photo accessories that cost less than $100.

Last week, visitors learned: how to minimize digital noise, also called grain, in their digital photos; how to fine-tune tonal quality in their black-and-white photos; how to photograph fireworks; a photojournalist's technique, called "stacking the composition"; and how to use (but not over-use) a polarizing filter. In addition, two new buying guides were introduced: a guide to "superzoom" cameras, which have built-in, long-ranging zoom lenses, and a guide to scanners which can be used to digitize photos taken with film cameras.

Resnick is inviting bloggers and webmasters with photo-related content to link to "100 in 100," (http://www.adorama.com/catalog.tpl?article=100in100&op=academy_new). "If you have photography-related content on your site, this will add value to it," he notes.

Daily and weekly summaries will be available via the AIRC's News Desk RSS feed (http://www.adorama.com/catalog.tpl?op=NewsDesk_Home).
