Hobby so far apart from a few bits of work here and there. Once I've got my degree I will be.

These lenses also have lighting fast auto focus, when used with a camera with an effective auto focus system like the Nikon D3, the subject can be focussed and tracked pretty easily.

If you want to freeze movement, without blurring etc, you must use higher shutter speeds of atleast 500th or faster, if you can't afford a f/2.8 zoom, then you are going to have to deal with the grain of higher ISO's to balance the higher shutter speed in low light.

Hope this helps, it's kinda complex and hard to explain.

yea, i figured i needed a lens with lower f stop. I was using a 70-300 f/4-5.6 lens, so it didnt really allow much light in. Oh well, it wasnt supposed to be professional, it was jus for fun.

My brother just got a new camera so I took some pics with it. When he sends them to me i'll upload them.
He got a Canon Rebel XS T1i. I like it alot more than the one he had before. The Canon Rebel E05 XS. Which one do you think would be better for a starter? I like both of them but the new one takes a lot better pictures but is like $500 more.

none are really that good. they are really out of focus and such. And there is no canon rebel xs t1i. There is a Canon Rebel XS and a Canon Rebel T1i, but they are two different cameras.

Oh well he has the second one then. They might not be great but anything is good for me right now. I hate my shitty point n shoot.

You mean the one with the lights? I know it's not great i really didn't know what the fuck i was doing but i somehow got the camera to get a long exposure. I had the settings on A-DEP with the ISO at 400 i might have had the aperature at -1 but im not sure. I might have had the white balance on auto but i'm not sure. THe reason that the pic is so bright is because that street is very bright. There's store all around it and lights everywhere.

I have a photography book that has some really interesting information in there. It's helped me quite a bit but I can't practice anything because I don't have an SLR yet.

**kmcdon3960** · 09-20-2009 10:15 PM

Don't use a-dep. It's a waste of time.

**PERVERTO** · 09-20-2009 10:21 PM

The fuck is ADEP?

i have that camera. I like it.

Whats the best setting to shoot when doing like 5-30 second exposures? by setting i mean f-stop, iso, etc.

**PERVERTO** · 09-20-2009 10:55 PM

depends on what your after, for the best picture quality, shoot at the lowest ISO you can, 100 or similar, and f stop depends on what your after also, for long light stars and shit like that use a small fstop but for sharper images with more in focus use higher f stops like 5.6 or 11.

**noxi** · 09-20-2009 11:30 PM

alright fasho. Its freakin hard focusing well at night. I came back with so many blurry ass pictures.
