Can be done purely by experience

chobit

Well..there are unlimited of things you can do, so instead, I would recommend google it.

You can try assignment such as:

Color theme: Anything that's red
Shape theme:  Anything that's circle

No flash
Manual Apertures/shutters (AF is fine)
In Camera Metering: Center-weighted average or Spot
Use only 1 lens, and pick a small range of focal length (eg. 17mm-35mm)

Hope this help

@Chobit: Do you mind giving me more examples of the projects? I think it will be very helpful for me. Thanks.

Also, another question, how do you shoot in M? I mean do you have to use a lightmeter? Or ...

斷章取義嗰個係你，
我冇話技術唔同，
係心態唔同，
我仲叫你試下影菲林先發表你既偉論，
我仲出聲辯護你個"photographer"字頭，
聽書啦「攝影師」！！！

Please be courtesy and stick to what the original thread starter's question.  Or else we should close this post.

No matter manual car or auto car, you can drive from point A to point B. And no matter film or digital camera, you can take pictures with it. Then what's the difference? My point is, if you really love cars, you will enjoy driving manual over auto. (is that right sin?) And if you really want to "learn" real photography, I said film is the way to go. And I already admitted that digital is the fastest and easiest way to get start (yet not the cheapest way); and also the fastest and easiest way to gain profit in business. Am I wrong?

嘥氣，"they are no different, no different at all!!!"
back to the topic，
我覺得40D個位真係好尷尬，
對新買家或upgrade真係無乜吸引力，
有埋450D就真係....
我知入門市場利潤大，
之不過都要顧下班想upgrade又俾唔起5D個價位既Fans至得嫁~~~

IMO, I think 40D is a huge step ahead of 30D.  30D from 20D was almost nothing.

40D is such a great value!  Yes, 450D is good but it's still nowhere near the 40D in terms of build and handling.  It's the best 1.6x camera from Canon so far.

Except for the FF sensor, 40D beats 5D in every category.

But then D300 beats 40D on paper...

所以我都開始唔係太睇數字，
至緊要啱手型，就手，
N定C定O定P都唔係最緊要。
S唔計，km啲鏡好難揾...

"except for the FF sensor, 40D beats 5D in every category."<------睇咁多Canon forum,呢句算係對5D最中肯既comment。
好多人當5d有塊FF就神聖不可侵犯！

If you think about it, the 5D is almost 2 generations older than the 40D. It'd be pretty sad if the 40D is not at least on par in most aspects compared to the 5D.

that's why after almost 3 yrs people still 當5d神聖不可侵犯 lor...lol
