Expert Profile: Akshay Singh Jamwal

Expertise:  I can answer questions questions relating to SLRs (35mm or DSLRs) and general photographic technique. I have a good knowledge and understanding of the principles involved in photography (film or digital) and photographic lighting. Questions about studio lighting, studio flashes, and flashguns are also welcome. Questions about theory (e.g. colour theory, the rules and guidelines behind composition etc.) are welcome as well. Digital photography also involves some amount of post-processing using an image editing application such as Adobe Photoshop; a program that I am proficient with. I cannot answer typical generic questions, viz. "Which is the best camera?," as the short and sweet answer to questions such as those is "There is no such thing." Furthermore, there is a lot of literature available on the web pertaining to those sorts of questions. Please be as specific as you can with your questions.

Experience in the area
I'm a professional commercial photographer and have been passionately taking photographs since I was 13 years old. In totality, I've been involved in photography in one way or another for over a decade. I've used equipment from various manufacturers, including but not limited to Minolta/Konica Minolta, Nikon, Canon, and Mamiya.

Education/Credentials
High school degree.
