Dope coverage B. Your uncle let you drive that beast?

Adjustments would help soften the exposure, at least thats what I was told. Also was recommended to use a polarizer. Im sure the pros will chime in on this.

 

in simple terms it would help your outside pics, look like your inside pics.

filters = your friend.

 

That stingray is beyond sick :drool:

 

But what would be different...less exposure to the background? What filters should I get?

Werd. And no, I didn't get to drive it. But he said it scared the shit out of him....he also has a ZR-1. o:

 

Something like 1/800 would be reserved for subjects that are moving. Since your subjects are stationary, you don't need the shutter to open and close THAT fast.

Going from film to digital, I've noticed that LCD's on the back of the camera, lie to you. What looks like flashing, blown highlights on the LCD on your camera may be perfect if you're sending your prints to a lab for print. What looks perfect, may be under exposed.

 

I didn't use the LCD at all. It displays my settings and that's it. I used the meter in the viewfinder.

 

I figured you used the viewfinder, but thought maybe you confirmed the exposure via the LCD. I feel that a lot of digital SLR users rely on the LCD and never really understand what they're doing.

You're on the right track.

Using settings instead of the LCD screen is like learning to ski w/out your poles. You just get-it from a better place.

 

I used to use my LCD with my old point n shoot because I had to use it to change exposure settings and such, and it didn't have a meter in the viewfinder. Now I'm trying to learn the right way.

 

fyi, that's not how you park them. You can sit on the door sill and see behind just find. That's how the factory does it anyways.

 

Seriously
