Krishan 0 #1 December 13, 2003 But I'm curious as to what settings you all shoot with. Shutter speeds, Aperture settings, modes, etc? I'm assuming you're using the Manual modes as you can only shoot RAW pics with those. Anyway, any input you can give as to what works and what doesnt would be most appreciated.

ltdiver 3 #2 December 13, 2003 Same settings you normally have used on your 35mm camera with 200 iso selected. This is my preference and the pictures are coming out AWESOME! ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krishan 0 #3 December 13, 2003 What if I told you that the Digi Rebel is the first camera I have ever had that you can adjust settings on? ;-) Dont f#%k up...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GraficO 0 #4 December 19, 2003 Krishan... First thing to do is buy the bible of photography... "The Joy of Photography" That book alone will take away a ton of questions. GraficOGraficO "A Mind is a terrible thing to taste." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krishan 0 #5 December 19, 2003 I already tried that with "Photography for Dummies" and didnt get that much out of it. besides I dont read books so well I you use Manual Focus and you're 1 foot further from or closer to your target than you set the focus for on the ground, then your shot will come out blurry right? Anyway I guess I'll just do some experimenting in the air this weekend and see what the camera can do. Dont f#%k up...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vdschoor 0 #6 December 19, 2003 QuoteAnyway I guess I'll just do some experimenting in the air this weekend and see what the camera can do. I would recommend shooting with the camera around the house before sticking it on your head. What good is it going to do if your pictures don't come out? They don't have to be perfect of course, but I would recommend playing with it, read the manual (and these forums) and take lots of pictures and see how they come out. Just my 2 cts.. I think I took close to 200 pics with it before putting it on my helmet, even though I used to shoot film before that. You want to know your equipment before taking it up there.

Krishan 0 #7 December 19, 2003 yeah, that's what i have been doing. clicking away like crazy, testing different settings, etc. Gone through the manual several times, but just havent taken many pictures in light conditions that are similar to those in the sky. Thanks. Dont f#%k up...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
