Reciprocity failure

Well, now I'm thinking of poor Newton when things are really small and really fast.

I certainly agree with that, but I have to say that it made me chuckle as it reminds me of an engineer I worked with many many years ago who always referred to Ohm's Law as Ohm's Opinion.

AC circuits with capacitive or inductive reactance, the "resistances" will depend on frequency.

Newton and Napier got us to the moon, and more importantly, got us back to earth.

No. Resistance has no reactive component, and thus is invariant with frequency.

The parameter you're thinking of is 'impedance', which does include a reactive component.

I know. Hence the quotation marks, I was trying to keep it simple.

Reciprocity failure My wife says i have it and dont know it..... You really can get an education on photography on LF. Kind of the wiki of opinions about photography... Entertaining also. I dont mind seeing questions like this... but who am i... but you could get more information and fact if you would google this subject.... Google really is a miracle of the internet... searching millions of web pages .. think about ... all that info and porn at your finger tips... My imagination just is not quite big enough to grasp all the info and porn you can find with google....

Wait a minute. Are you saying we can look at porn on our computers? Seriously?!?

I should go out a shoot some film, and not waste my time with you lot.

Wise words... if you heed them you'll save a lot of valuable time and energy.

If you can manage to stick around here long enough you'll come to realize that this place is never short on assholes. You'll also come to realize that a large proportion of the photographers that hang around places like this dont accually make photographs, they just like to talk as though they do.

The short cut to learning photography is from reading and studying good books and making photographs. A forum is the very last place you should be looking for information especially if your still working on getting the basics down.

Wow, Kev... strong opinions!

If the forum is so useless... Why are you here?

I like a bit of S&M now and then...
