Number 4 needs to be put on every manual, box, and the camera it self. It [i]physically pains me[i] to see all these people who had just gotten a dSLR and using the on-camera pos flash not just for fill, but as the sole lighting source all over the place.

Thanks Sonny, you article finds are always amazing!!

I think #9 is one of the most important - if you want to see how good (or bad) an image really is have a lab print one for you at 16x20 or larger on semi-matte paper.

A. Make sure you buy a camera that comes with a real printed manual. Printed manuals are an endangered species.
B. Why do folks make such a big deal out of the blatantly obvious? I guess that comes from being a Geezer.
C. I can't believe the Rule of Thirds was omitted.
