Beginning Photography
Calling me an amateur photographer would be nice. Absolute n00b is probably more appropriate. But, I'm smart and with some time I can learn the ropes. So, today I finally received my Nikon D7000. Talk about intimidating, there are 20 parts. The manual (English only version) is over 300 pages long.
I start reading the manual and discover there are buttons on buttons on this camera. There are hidden buttons. There are dials because there are TOO MANY buttons. There are inputs. There are dual card inputs. There are outputs. Man...there are OUTPUTS.
Anyway, started reading the manual. Now I realize I'm in over my head. Time to the INTERNETZ! First, what the heck is FV Lock Indicator?
Ah a good find. http://nikonclspracticalguide.blogspot.com/2008/01/4-so-what-is-flash-value-lock.html. So, FV is Flash Value, and lock indicator shows whether or not the lock is set, to keep the flash brightness locked to the current level.
Sweet, one term down. Like 2,000 more to go.
