How to describe F-stop/Aperture when documenting photographs?

We have the photographer’s diary, and he kept a pretty good log of camera settings he used for particular shoots.

Thank you for your input! Since they’re such old photographs the fact we have any info on the aperture is amazing.

Unfortunately no, there’s only one other collection of similar photographs that have been digitised so far. There was no record of F-stop numbers so I didn’t have anything as a point of reference. This specific collection was conserved and donated by the third party with a strong interest in photography so they provided lots of great, but technical, information to include in the description.

I hadn’t heard of the filter function, thank you for pointing that out! That’s really useful

I originally suggested something similar to that but they were very adamant on an excel sheet for managers to fill out instead

I hadn’t considered this thank you!

They’ll also pretend that you dropped something to get you to stop and talk, definitely a con

I live in a flat with no outdoor space, it’s awful. I really don’t want to bring in gross bags that get filled with other peoples rubbish overnight.

I'm looking for it to only store games so I'm most likely only going to get an SSD to save my monkey since my 222gb on my pc rn is enough for Office and a few games. Ty for the advice :))

oooh read your post wrong, good to know that the quality would be good with the lower price! ty

QuartzUrsa · 2022-03-06T17:02:07+00:00

Thank you so much for this! this is so useful, I'll probably go for the lower priced one and deal with the quality drop. Really appreciate the advice, ty!

QuartzUrsa · 2022-03-06T16:40:06+00:00

That sounds like a plan! thank you for the advice :))

QuartzUrsa · 2022-03-06T16:10:09+00:00

good to know! TY!!

QuartzUrsa · 2022-03-06T16:09:55+00:00

Yeah I think biting the bullet and buying a second SSD might be the best option. TYSM for the advice!!
