View Full Version : Failure at photography...

So I decided to head downtown for some skyline shots and try a few things.

I am not a photographer nor do I have any kind of good equipment or knowledge. I was just taking advice from my father in law (award winning photographer) and some friends.

Results.

These were shot with ISO 50 (I have NO idea what ISO does on a digital camera... there is no film)

and here is where I switched to ISO 400 and they all started to look grainy as hell.

So 98 pictures out of 109 are completely worthless. I will atempt again at a later date... possibly with some good equipment borrowed from my father in law.

OHHHH.... now I remember why I don't post pictures here. Word filter. Great.

Fill in the **** with a slang term for a woman who sleeps around if you want to see.

I kinda like the 3rd,6th and 7th shots.They remind me of the original ad photos for the Marauder and look like a Marauder version of Christine slinking through the night stalking her next victims.

You really want to shoot a higher ISO in low light.

ISO is sensitivity to light. It is very usefull in digital cameras when shooting without a flash in low light.

ISO 50 is used on SUNNY days. Very low sensitivity.

A high end DSLR will shoot ISO 6400 handheld at dusk and the image will appear pre-dusk.

Noise (grain) in your images indicate that you shot a high ISO on a camera that doesn't do well over 800 or so. Either that, or you blew up the low mega-pixel image and there is lost data. :dunno:

This is the advice I got from my father in law... and it made all my pictures grainy. So with my camera... it needs to be the lowest F-stop, and just experiment with the exposure time... lowest ISO setting.

DAMN! It worked for me too.... let's see what else it will filter.

**** **** **** **** my mastercard
**** **** **** **** my visa
***** *** ****** my amex
