Dedupe5 Handy Digital Camera Tips you Should Know
Last Updated :Clicking pictures with digital cameras is lot more easier than what it was with film cameras. Though they bear a high cost, but clicking pictures is cheap. You can click as many pictures as you want, and delete all the unwanted pictures at no additional cost. Everyone today with a digital camera in hand has become a photographer. However, not all of us are well aware of the camera tips and tricks.
If you are looking for some camera tips and photography advice to improve your photography skills, you are at right place. Here are some tips from the experts who have been clicking pictures since many years. In the section below, we will cover some digital camera tips that you should know to begin with.
1. Reset cameras settings, when you mess-up
In the beginning, there will come many situations where you may feel that you messed-up with your camera settings. Or there may come a situation where you do not experiment with your camera settings so that you don't mess it up. Don't worry. In both the situations you can always reset your camera settings to get it back to what it was.2. Format don't erase:
It is always advisable that you format the memory card in your camera. Formatting makes sure that your memory card is wiped clean and is ready for rewrite. Whereas, erasing data on the memory card doesn't rewrites any pertinent camera information. So always format your cards to minimize the risk of any data corruption.3. Regular Firmware update:
Firmware refers to your in-camera software which is used for processing images. The firmware sets the whole range of parameters for controlling what features are available to you. Check your manufacturer’s website regularly to ensure your digital camera’s firmware is as up to date as possible.4. Change camera Batteries:
The camera batteries are like lifeline of your camera. Make sure they are fully charged before you out and shoot. If you use your camera extensively, make sure you carry an additional pair of batteries just in case your first pair dies or is exhausted.5. Check the image size:
You don't always need the maximum resolution for your pictures, do you? Sometimes a smaller image size might be all you need. Reducing the resolution doesn't only means more images, but also ensures a faster shooting rate, too.

PicBackMan does exactly what it's supposed to. It's quick and efficient. It runs unobtrusively in the background and has done an excellent job of uploading more than 300GB of photos to 2 different services. After having lost a lot of personal memories to a hard drive crash, it's nice to know that my photos are safe in 2 different places.

LOVE this program! Works better than ANY other program out there that I have found to upload thousands of pictures WITH SUB-FOLDERS to SmugMug!
Thank you so much for what you do! :) #happycustomer

I pointed PicBackMan at a directory structure, and next time I looked - all the photos had uploaded! Pretty cool. I use SmugMug and while I really like it, the process of creating directories in is pretty laborious when you need to make 80+ at a time. This was a breeze. Thank you!

PicBackMan was really easy to setup and has been running for 3 days now backing up all my locally saved photos to Flickr. My photos are really valuable to me so it's great to be able to have them easily backed up to a secure location.
Jim Griffin It's AWESOME!! I have tens of thousands of pictures...and they are now successfully uploaded to SmugMug, where they are safely backed up, and I can edit and organize them. If you are hesitating about using PicBackMan, hesitate no longer...try it...and you'll be glad you did!!

I started with the basic plan, went to premium and now on their platinum plan and it's more than worth the price for me. PicBackMan has saved me many tedious hours of effort moving many files between my various cloud and photo site services and my local computers.

I am very satisfied and surprised at the same time with Pic BackMan. The service is very good and useful. I used it to transfer my photos from Dropbox to my Flickr accound. I highly recomment it.

PicBackMan was an answer to many a prayer. How can I get this MASSIVE collection of photos onto a service that cripples uploading? PicBackMan. I uploaded approximately 85,000 photos in less than a month. It would have taken me close to a year to get all of those photos where they needed to go. Nothing short of brilliant.
Dary MerckensI have thousands of family photos and it's always been such a pain to upload them to various cloud services for offline storage. Well not anymore! PicBackMan makes backing everything up a complete breeze. I don't know how I ever lived without it!
Glen MartineauI was poking around the Internet looking for an easy tool to help me consolidate 15 years of my pictures from Google Photos and Flickr etc - this tool was very easy to use and was painless to setup.
