Lately with the colder weather coming in I have been immensely enjoying reading through the previous posts and learning from the content within. I have noticed that frequently in the evaluation on one type of camera compared to another a fe w of you have stated that having "zeroing detents" to be important. As a true be ginner I am having trouble understanding why this is so important. When I am out shooting I am constantly experimenting (and enjoying) using tilts to alter the "depth of focus" as well as rise and fall to alter perspective. I am quite sure that I'm not doing everything by the book or perhaps for the correct reason but I have yet to discover a need to zero out my camera before shooting. As a habit ( and perhaps because I have read it here frequently) I do as a matter of course zero my camera when I change locations. I then happily go on my way to make any adjustments I feel would help my composition according to my perceived shot. S my question is ... Why should I be concerned about zeroing out my camera when I arrive on a scene ? Thanks in advance for your contributions and there is nothin g I enjoy better than being shown why I am incorrect and can now apply this know ledge to my next photo opportunity.
