Complaint for WITTY

[Jiddy]

Out of curiousity do you think we could have the monthly picture winner also list the camera they used to snap the shot?:wit:

 

[Witfull]

this isnt a complaint,,,,its a suggestion...lol

taken under advisement. thank you for your constructive ideas bud~

 

[Warnberg]

How bout the lens specs, F-stop and shutter speed as well.....

 

[Witfull]

its a point and shoot world baby~

best i can do is suggest it within the contest, but wont make it mandatory.

might twist the winners arm~

Even though I have a simple,inexpensive point and shoot camera, the software automatically records all the settings and I can find out what they are when viewing with the software that came with the camera. If my cheapo camera can tell me then I'm sure anyone else can find out as well fairly simply.

But I understand where you're coming from Witty, the more we ask of people the less people will be willing to enter contests.

LoL, i doubt anyone that wins will be upset about sharing camera specs.

And Witty my suggestion could of been a complaint, its just how you take it, nice addition to my suggestion Warnberg!

Cougra, you are right on the money. Almost all Digital Camera Software records lots of info about the picture. Problem is when people size the picture most of that info is stripped off so that the picture will be the correct size to upload to differant web sites.

Here is an example of some information I can get from a shot I took:

Some of the other reef sites automatically collect and display this info when you upload a picture. Might be something the tech gurus for this site can look into.
