fotografr Posted March 9, 2009 Share #2 Posted March 9, 2009 Where are you seeing the letters? What is the context? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joppepop Posted March 9, 2009 Share #4 Posted March 9, 2009 Auto Exposure & Focus, maybe.... Hard to tell without knowing in what context you found this abbreviation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moreorlessica Posted March 10, 2009 Author Share #6 Posted March 10, 2009 Hey thanks Buddies. I did that wiki too! I am about to start working with a Mamiya RZ67 and it's a setting on it - I was just noodling around learning about the camera and it said this on Wiki P 'RZ67 is able to operate in AEF mode with a measuring viewfinder, which transmits exposure information directly to the body, and in RBL compatibility mode' All of which is goobidlyguook (another question - how does one spell goballdeeguk?) to me, as I am an 'arts' photographer and not so good with technical stuff. eep, am I about to be ostracized?

Overgaard Posted March 10, 2009 Share #8 Posted March 10, 2009 AEF is still not defined - and I guess they factory just made it up to put some sort of "advanced text" on there (probably stands for Auto Exposure with F-lenses) Anyhow. How many of you have ever looked through all your camera (buttons and menus) and cleared up the things you didn't fully understand? I often do this with cars, cameras, software programs, etc. (you'll find the most interesting features like dimming the light, disabling the brakes, how to create 15 degree vertical typefaces in a graphic program, etc) The icons on small cameras are the worst. Whenever I have a photo seminar, it's a sure winner that the WB symbol seemed to surreal to all users that they never found it worthwhile to find out what it stands for. Hence, they newer used White Balance - which is the next most important thing in digital photography to get right (light metering is no 1). Year, I know. I just get so mad whenever some "engineers" try to make things advanced by creating complexities. Nah. The M4, that's a camera. A piece of metal with four buttons or so and no battery. Genius piece of engineering with complexities all over the inside, made simple onthe outside. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lct Posted March 10, 2009 Share #11 Posted March 10, 2009 .. The M4, that's a camera. A piece of metal with four buttons or so and no battery... But with some plastic parts as well. All resistance is futile, the M3 is unbeatable my friend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moreorlessica Posted March 10, 2009 Author Share #12 Posted March 10, 2009 oh but The M1 is superb! Thanks for all ye help. I still find so much stuff that sounds like jargon in photography, and with the added inconvenience of having a not-very-adhesive-brain, well, all these codes get confusing without the actual camera and functions being played about with. Mamiya ja ja ja. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wmyowell Posted March 10, 2009 Share #13 Posted March 10, 2009 Thank you for the new term: "not-very-adhesive-brain". If I may I am going to use it. It is so very self descriptive. Bill Yowell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
