Dpi is the printer resolution, ppi is the file resolution. Ppi is what you alter to change the print size and should always be equal to or less than the dpi. You then send the file to the printer which will print it at the print size you set at the dpi resolution, which for most commercial...

Light Room is a very good Raw converter and cataloguing system and is totally loss-less, it treats every file as a Raw file even Tiff and Jpeg.It's designed for rapid work-flow and pre processing your shoot ready for Photoshop. More tools are being added, but it will never be as deep as...

Photoshop, then several years to learn how to use all of it. Chris

Get the photographic knowledge at college, the equipment you need will be obvious to you then. Talking of knowledge, don't forget the business side of things, boring I know, but more photographers go bankrupt from lack of business acumen than do because they are bad photographers. If you can...

Best and cheapest, I think you'll find that's an oxymoron. Chris

There is only one level of light on the film/sensor that is correct, but there are several combinations of shutter speed and aperture that will give you the correct amount of light. In your example f8 @ 1/60th gives a correct exposure, if you change to f5.6 then 1/120th would give the same...

For 90% of my pictures I use Aperture Priority (Av) set the aperture for the depth of field I want and the camera will select the appropriate shutter speed, just check that it doesn't get too slow for hand holding in dim light. To guarantee a perfect exposure every-time use the menus to enable...

No camera will take no light shots, however all DSLR will work in very, very low light given a long enough shutter speed as there's no reciprocity failure that film has. (Film responds less and less to light the longer it's exposed). As an experiment I have shots of the middle of a field on a...

Trying to book learn photography is the hard way to go, there must be courses available near you or Photography Clubs. There's nothing better than having the teacher right there with you. Chris

Don't ask us we neither know or, in all honesty, care - Ask Her !! Be careful you may not like the answer. Chris

I use the Metz 58AF and they will do everything the Nikon flash will do, and are easy to use even with TTL metering. The USB update feature is not so important with Nikon, with Canon it's a real plus as it gets around the built in redundancy of Canon. There are already 4 updates for Canon on the...

If you shoot Jpeg you are using sRGB as does your monitor unless you have a very expensive one. The older CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) monitors will be sRGB, most LCD monitors have a norrower colour gamut, but they are improving all the time. Some of the more up to date R series Epson printers can...
