metro Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 metro you might want to invest in a hand held light meter, like a good sekonic (358 or 558 are very good, i own the 358) you can get attachments like spot meter cones to go on it to allow you to get very precise exposure information for you scene, thus letting you set your cameras settings to get the shot right the first time in camera without requiring much post processing. I find when shooting people with a nikon i tend to have to over expose 0.3 - 0.7 to get skin tones right, but its different for each shot.... If you meter with a handheld you'll get much better first time shots. I have been looking into a hand held light meter. The Sekonics have caught my eye but I am trying to get some nice glass first. I am looking into getting either the new 24-70 f/2.8 or the 70-200 f/2.8 VR and then perhaps another small toy. My plan is to have both of those lenses and then a new D300. Once that is set, I'll probably be sending in my D70s to have it converted to a dedicated infrared camera which means I need the 18-70 because the camera will be calibrated to it. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Montage Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 OK, I am NOT a photographer, but my mum just bought a nice new camera. She has it on "auto" mode all the time, but I tried messing with it a bit. You may all laugh at my noobishness! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gigapixels Veteran Posted November 22, 2007 Veteran Share Posted November 22, 2007 So I had to take a picture from a different vantage point for my photo class... And this is what I came up with: I did no post-processing whatsoever. Just a crop. It's a ceiling fan in my house. I'm actually using it as my wallpaper right now.
