I am traveling to australia for a second time but for the first time with my dslr camera. don't want to get to the airport and the say i cant take it on the plane. lol

Answer
Cameras are no problem. They are not interested in confiscating cameras. Thousands of people travel everyday with cameras. Before digital cameras became so popular, people carried film SLR cameras with no problems on planes - and lenses, and flash units and bags of camera equipment.

Do NOT put your camera in a checked suitcase. Theft of items from suitcases does happen sometimes, and the more valuable something is, the more likely it would be to disappear.

I want to take my DSLR camera with me as a carry on because I don't want to risk it getting damaged in my luggage. What is the procedure for the security check? I will be carrying it in my camera case. Do I have to take it out of it's case before getting it scanned or can I leave it in there?

Answer
Yes, you can carry it and not, you don't have to take anything out of the case. Just stick it through the scanner.

What i am looking for is a solution to this problem:First of all i will buy a new Dslr camera. Then i will visit clients houses from where i will take pictures. I am looking also for a lens for 360 photos with one click! Next steps sre to create slide shows- panorama photos- 360 virtual tours and last virtual walkthroughs!
Any ideas of such a cool software and hardware?Thx in advance.

Answer
There are two cameras used to create the image files necessary to use the 360 software.

The old Nikon Coolpix 990 and 995 cameras with the fisheye adapter were the first cameras used (and you can still find them on craigslist if you are patient)

Nikon DSLR's using the 10.5 mm fisheye is now used by many of the 360 photographers.

In the case of either camera, you will need a tripod head that rotates 180 degrees keeping the film plane in the same location.

I use the 12-24 mm on a D300 for both interior and exterior shots for my realtors. It is a perfect lens for shooting architectural without breaking the bank. The PC lenses, while precise, are a bit costly ($1,300 to $1,900) .

Sony DSLR - how to achieve out of focus background in portraits?

Q. So I just got a Sony A380 14.2 megapixel DSLR camera with a 18-55mm with f3.5-5.9 kit lens. I am having a little bit of trouble getting the desired "out of focus" background that I would like to achieve. Does anyone have any tips that could help me with this? Thanks.

Answer
DOF - Depth Of Field
DOF is the area (plane) of the photo that is in sharp focus. For landscapes, we usually want a a very deep DOF, so that everything in it is in focus. For portraits, we usually like to have the person in focus, while the background is blurred.
So you have a plane that is in focus - and it can be either in the foreground (so the background is blurry) or in the background (so the foreground is blurry).

For the most part, this is achieved via a lens with a large aperture (that's the small f/stop number), but a longer focal length - i.e. zoom - increases the effect. Often people ask how to achieve with a small P&S camera, but unfortunately that is not something those little things are very good at.

If you have manual controls, use the biggest aperture. If you don't, try setting it to the portrait setting which makes the camera choose the biggest aperture it is capable of. Make sure there is some distance between you, the subject, and the background. You can also attempt it on Macro setting - that may work to a certain extent.

I wanna take my DSLR SONY 200 camera with camera bag and another lens on the plane but i dont know if i can this is my first time being on a plane so i dont really know what i can and cant bring on the plane.
Help pls.

Answer
You are allowed a carry on and a personal item.
Your purse is considered one and the camera case is the other. However, if you can stash it in your carry on bag (like a back pack or small case) you can also carry a purse or a laptop bag as as your personal item.
Short answer is yes you can, but do not try to get away with 3 items because one of them is small.
