Must have been in a dark corner somewhere to force you to 1/100th at f/8 and 800 ISO. I was shooting something else when he "dropped" in on me. I forgot to set the ISO and the shutter speed appropriately. I snapped on the flash and pointed that at the ceiling (I was standing on a chair to shoot him). Set the lens to 1:1 (macro) and focused by swaying. He was quite uncooperative and it was impossible to get his head in the shot. I should have dialed that to f/16 @ 1/250 and ISO 160. -- "Civilization is the limitless multiplication of unnecessary necessities." -Samuel Clemens. |
