dallycat 0 #1 April 18, 2008 I just picked the EOS REBEL XSi and have been playing with it for only a little while. Can anyone help me out with some setting recommendations for the best picture quality in the air? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seriously every setting has its place in skydiving photography, it is up to you to figure out the combo of settings that will give you the desired effect. I'd start out by reading some photographic books like Understanding Exposure. That will will really help you understand your camera is more then just a point and shoot and will help you get good results by understanding what is occuring on the camera.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
velocityphoto 0 #3 April 18, 2008 Your camera manual that comes with it will explain everything to you in pretty simple terminology. To get more in depth a good photography book like eric said. Its digital so charge your batteries and play. Have fun ! :) A friend will bail you out of jail , a REAL friend will be sitting next to you in the cell slapping your hand saying "DUDE THAT WAS AWSUM " ................

jtval 0 #4 April 18, 2008 Just in case you didn't do a search I did a quick on for ya. I KNOW the XSI is a new model but camera settings have been the same since the flintstones were using a parrot to chisel the image into stone. This helped me a lot when I got new lenses that I wasn't familiar with. I'm not pro but I can usually get the shot I am looking for...if the jumpers would just get in their fucking slots.
