Comments & input for the new sticky here :)

[alcina]

You may have noticed a new sticky at the top of this forum. The goal is to make it a timely one-stop place for common questions such as which cameras to consider, basic settings, WB and RAW information and other things that we find come up routinely.

Comments, ideas and input from you all are invaluable - so please let us know what you think about it here in this thread and/or PM me directly with anything you'd like to see in there.

I think this is going to be a great resource not only for those who are just getting into uw photo but for those who want to change systems and for those "old timers" who might just see something to try or think about!

I really like what you've done, Alcina. Lots of good ideas for starters. Answers a lot of the questions that get asked over and over, and sends people to the right places to get the rest taken care of. Great idea (and thanks for the plug).

Great idea on the thread Alcina, looking forward to your section on Manual white balance.

I think that it's really important and is one thing that i've found made a huge difference in the look of my pictures.

I wish that I had started doing so from the get go, I think it's almost a most if you're just shooting with the camera and housing .
