Photography links

After having taken a couple of photos with my new Sony DSC-F828 digital cam I soon became aware of my huge lack of knowledge about photography. To use the complete potential of a camera you need a high amount of background information.

please, do me a favour
and mail me in case a certain link isn't available any more or you should find "unexpected information" on the page.

I do not overtake any responsibility for the linked pages.
