The main problem when using an ordinary camera from such a low down position, as indicated in the picture, is you'll be including an awful lot of unwanted foreground (as was also mentioned) in the lower half of the picture, effectively wasting some three quarters or more of the sensor pixels. If you're using a 16MPxl camera on a shot where 4Mpxl's worth of resolution is more than ample in the final cropped image, this can be a very cost effective alternative to investing in a special tilt lens / swing back architectural camera. :-) Swing backs/tilt lenses won't solve the problem, I think you mean shift lenses and backs. Swing lenses + backs are to alter the focal plane so different depths are in focus across the image. Its important to know the difference as you can get dirt cheap swing lenses (lensbaby) but not shift lenses. |

Sensible to have glass so you don't have lights on all the time, You don't need anything like that much glass for that, even in that gloomy soggy little frigid island. like I do in here. Because you were stupid enough to buy a poorly designed hovel. Besides you can get warmth from the sun in winter, Not when those windows are pointed the way they are. and use blinds in summer. Much better to have decent deep eaves so the sun comes in during the winter and doesn't in the summer because the sun is much higher in the sky. Clever idea. Yeah, and trivially easy to do, very simple to calculate. Only possible on south side windows tho in your case. Apart from the sheer ugliness of the place. Glass isn't ugly. That place is, obscenely ugly. I disagree. You're wrong anyway. If you are going to have that much glass, it should be completely frameless like you see with the best of the Grand Designs. |

Great if you love cleaning windows, but yes, yuk! Lots of light in your house seems like a good idea to me, what is your problem with it? Stupid windows that size makes it too hot in Summer and too cold in Winter. Ever heard of heating and air conditioning? Stupid to have that much glass so you have to have those. Sensible to have glass so you don't have lights on all the time, You don't need anything like that much glass for that, even in that gloomy soggy little frigid island. This room does. It has what I'd call average sized windows. Not bright enough for my liking, the lights are on all day. like I do in here. Because you were stupid enough to buy a poorly designed hovel. Besides you can get warmth from the sun in winter, Not when those windows are pointed the way they are. and use blinds in summer. Much better to have decent deep eaves so the sun comes in during the winter and doesn't in the summer because the sun is much higher in the sky. Clever idea. Yeah, and trivially easy to do, very simple to calculate. Only possible on south side windows tho in your case. Apart from the sheer ugliness of the place. Glass isn't ugly. That place is, obscenely ugly. I disagree. You're wrong anyway. If you are going to have that much glass, it should be completely frameless like you see with the best of the Grand Designs. It looks better than walls. -- Little Sally came home from school with a smile on her face, and told her mother, "Frankie Brown showed me his penis today at the playground!" Before the mother could raise a concern, "Sally went on to say, "It reminded me of a peanut." Relaxing with a hidden smile, Sally's mum asked, "Really small, was it?" Sally replied, "No, salty." Mum fainted. |

The noise is no big deal IMO. No worse than a vacuum cleaner. |

You don't have to watch it - you just leave it and let it do its thing. You just come back and if it has stopped, it has done the whole window. You then put it on another window and start it going again. |
