How do I clean the glass on my camera lens that got food on and has now dried? I have kids, it can happen when getting close for pictures. I probably should have a filter covering it, but just got the lens and just didn't get around to getting one yet. What is the best method for cleaning the glass without scratching it?
I have a sourdough starter that is 5 1/2 weeks old. I feed it 50g starter, 50g spring water, 25g whole wheat flour, and 25g king arthur bread flour. It has been doubling in rise and then going back down to where it started a few hours before its time to feed it the next day. Is this normal? I see other people's starters tripling and overflowing. Should mine be doing that?
When can I start baking with it? When can I put it in the fridge and feed it once a week? I realize this is a lot of sourdough starter, but it's what I was told to start with so I did.
We are planning a trip to Disney world in 2027. If we go in March, will it be too hot? We want to avoid severe heat and bad humidity. We live in Washington state so we are not used to 100 degree weather.
I am going to purchase a 35mm lens for my Canon EOS 6D Markii. It is my understanding that there are these three for me to choose from.
EF 35mm f/1.4L II
EF 35mm f/2 IS USM (the only one with image stabilization)
EF 35mm f/2
My camera does not have in-body mechanical image stabilization (IBIS). Does this mean I should use a lens that has image stabilization?
The lens will be used for me to take photos of my kids growing up and memories of my family around the house such as birthdays, Christmas morning, etc. This is really what I want the lens for - us doing life together at home.
I will also take this lens out when we go places such as the pumpkin patch and cutting down a Christmas tree. Or do you think I should get a seperate lens, like a 50mm, for doing things outside?
I don't take enough pictures of my family around the house just doing life together on holidays and birthdays. It's bothering me.
I have the mark ii. I want a lens that isnt really slow as it could cause me to miss moments my kids are having. Something that can take pictures, and maybe videos with too. Something to capture holidays, birthdays, vacations, family outings, and everything in between. I dont want a huge bulky lens to tote around. I have a 135mm f2L. There is no way I am using that to take photos Christmas morning. Nothing is worse than taking pictures on my phone, printing them, and the images are terrible.
