Not bad, what ISO did you use? Try a lower one next time.

Was finding it really hard to get decent pictures under there as it was so bright

Ouch Unlucky! Why did it take you so long?

They're not bad pal.. underground car parks aren't ideal locations to start out taking photos!

It looks like you're using auto mode still, looking at the exif data? It's hard to comment really as there seems to be quite a spread of settings over the various photos!

I'd say as a general rule try and stay within f/5 to f/15, with a tripod and a slow shutter speed, with the ISO not any higher than 800. That way you're most likely to stay within lenses sharpest apertures and keep the noise down. I'm a bit out of my depth, as I've never tried these shots..

Seriously though I wouldn't be disheartened by them, you've got low light and multiple light sources to contend with.. aint gonna be easy! I love the second from last shot btw! :approve:

Got a tripod? That helps loads, also practice with it on manual. Higher F stop creates a star like effect on lights

Was just playing around really using Shutter Priority and Appeture..Think i should stick to auto Hahah

Thanks for the tips guys

 

[Ian]

Well you're half way there then lol, don't stick it back on Auto! Are you going to the meet at weekend? I'm hoping to get a few shots with the new camera there, so can have an experiment then if you like?

 

[Riad]

Dont Think i am mate, Depends on my bro if he wants to go if wel do hel make me pay for petrol haha!

Ive jsut had a look on the camera and most pictures were took with ISO on 1600 and 800 so this is the reason they came out like that?

What new camera did you get?

 

[R1XPH]

The pics are good but not a fan of the funny / angles.

Whose is the 197?

 

[Ian]

Ahh you should come (assuming I'll be there, wouldn't be surprised if I end up missing it due to various circumstances!). Tell Naith not to be so tight

Yeah ISO 800 and 1600 will definitely add to the grain. Depends on the camera and it's capabilities, but I don't tend to go above 400 unless I have to. Tripod is definitely a good way to go for low light shots as well. I really need a full size one.

I've got the Canon 450d pal, same one I took the nature reserve photos with, but I only got it at Christmas so not taken any CS photos with it yet.
