Default Focal Length

How about --

What does focal length mean in relation to the lens you are going to purchase.

Talking Model Release

I am still pretty confused about model releases. I guess to err on the side of caution it is best to get them at every shoot I do. However, to be honest - I am not sure how to approach the subject about the model release. I am also not sure if that should be discussed BEFORE we shoot? Or at the time they are reviewing the proofs? Or when it should be asked? Some help would be great. Thanks.

Eric, here is a great book I just finished reading. It's The Tao of Photography. Seeing Beyond Seeing. It has helped me break out of some creative ruts I have been going through lately. I will say though, if anyone is expecting a step by step, paint by numbers approach, then this is not the book for you. I found it very insightful though.
