I stole this title. And I broke a rule by that.

Because it's a rule that stealing is bad. And this episode is about rules: Photography rules.And about why we want to (not) use them.

I mentioned these two videos in the episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Oqe4gwmooU

There is a law on the internet: "If you do something that exceeds five episodes, you have to change something." I did: No rant in this one but a list of things that I consider to be good photography habits and makes my photography run more smoothly and enjoyable.

I also wrap up the last episode, because I had a couple of comments considering "RAW vs. Jpeg"

The big piece of advice that we read about everywhere is: "ALWAYS shoot RAW". I don't agree. Why? This is what this episode is about.

Do I shoot RAW? Yes, a lot. But not always. There are big benefits of shooting JPEG as well.

In this fourth episode's rant I talk about copying other people's style, copying their photos and what the benefits are. I also mention how I once deliberately copied a photo and even made a video about that (https://youtu.be/sqL75ePZ9YI). And in the second part I take a closer look at sharpness.

In this second episode's rant I talk about kit lenses and why I don't think they are as bad as some people claim.

I also take a closer look at what to have in mind when getting a new lens, and last but not least I talk about the "sweet spot" of lenses.
