Before the Shoot
------------------------
- Charge battery in the camera, spare in the bag
- Empty memory card in the camera, spare in the bag
- Camera set to shoot raw
- Picture size to large
- Picture control to your preference (neutral is mine)
- ISO set to desired value, usually 100
- Camera in right mode (aperture priority or manual)
- Shutter release set to your preference (single or mirror up)
During the Shoot
------------------------
- Once composition is set, lock down tripod legs, ballhead, and camera plate
- Check focus and depth of field
- Before each shot inspect lens and filters for dust or water drops
- After each shot review your histogram and highlight warning, adjust exposure or bracket if necessary
- Check the corners and edges of each shot for distracting elements or important elements that are cut off
- Check for lens flare
- Bracket a few shots for white balance
- If shoot moving objects, try different shutter speeds
After the Shoot
----------------------
Celebrate your kick ass shot!
