Discusson Group Notes April 10, 2009
We had 5 members attend the discussion and enjoy the dinner at Denny's this Friday evening.
Terri was very excited as she showed us her new Canon D40 she received for her birthday as a present from Lee. While Lyle being a Nikon man himself, he still couldn't resist looking over the new Canon.
Bonnie still complained (the group said I had to print this) about my Canon D50 still throwing out the error with the card issue.
Lyle talked about his Nikon D3 being able to use 2 cards at the same time.
Hmm, do I detect a little competition amongst photographers. (grin)
John and Terri had another discussion about their phone cameras and the megapixels.
Lyle spoke to us about HDR.
We spoke briefly about flash and how to use in different settings. Lyle talked to us about lighting setups.
We missed Glenn as moderator so we decided to moderate ourselves. Please excuse the brief notes, Glenn does a much better job, I was busy eating and enjoying the conversation...sorry folks. Come join us!!! Bonnie

Matthews-Franke finds the club to be very beneficial to her. The interaction with other members, being able to ask questions, the workshops and the knowledge that I take away from the club is phenomenal.
She believes the meetings, workshops and field trips are very beneficial, specially to the new members. Her favorites were the Fall Color Trips; Mono Lake Trips and the workshops were she had her camera and could play along.
She love landscapes. She just finished a vacation trip to Oregon where she photographed lighthouses, old barns and covered bridges. The older the structure the better
.She also loves portraits, and shooting in her own studio.
Matthews-Franke has more than a few Canon's, a Canon 7D, a Canon 5D MKII and a few more with a variety of lenses and accessories. Her favorite lens is a 28-135mm ,70-200mm. & 100mm.
Matthews-Franke was our secretary of the club for a few years and helped made many changes to help us grow.
