I love that you can store your signature in the program.
What do you like best? I love that you can store your signature in the program. Also much more professional look over using a pen to fill forms. What do you dislike? The extra level of security when logging in slows you down a little. Its probably actually a good thing as your forms are stored in the system. Recommendations to others considering the product: I have tried to figure out ways to fill pdfs without signing on to this system, it was a foolish waste of time. I am not the type of person that signs on to programs like this, I always felt like they were scams. I am so very happy with this program, I wish that I had signed up for this much sooner.

Questions & answers

On your camera's LCD screen or viewfinder, the f-stop looks like this: f/2.8, f/4, f/5.6, f/8, f/11, and so on. Sometimes, it will be shown without a slash in between like f2. 8, or with a capital “F” letter in the front like F2. 8, which means the exact same thing as f/2.8.
I've studied the work of hundreds of cinematographers, and the T-stop they light to most of the time is T2. 8. This corresponds to about f/2.5 or thereabouts, but you can assume it's f/2.8, for the sake of your sanity. T-Stops vs F-Stops.
Photographic cameras are normally measured in f (e.g., f/2.8, f/4) while cinema lenses are normally measured in t. Basically, the f-stop is the measurement of the opening of the lens. the t-stop is how much light makes it to the sensor.
The F number in photography means the size of the aperture or the opening in the camera lens that allows light to pass and fall on the sensor. Most consumer lenses start from F3.5 or F4.5 while many professional level lenses will have F2.8. The lower the F number the bigger is the aperture.
The “f” in f-stop stands for the focal length of the lens. While focal length itself refers to the field of view of a lens, f-stop is about how much light you allow to hit the sensor via the aperture opening.
A lower f-stop (such as f/2.8 or f/4) will result in a brighter image by letting more light through. However, when you open up the aperture like this (f/2.8 or f/4), you're going to get a much shallower depth of field. This is where you'll get that infamous bokeh you've come to know and love.
