[Beef-Mc]

[dick]

nothing my mobile couldnt do tbh/

 

[Alan]

Did you piss in that Hooli..

Don't be a dick, dick

What speed were you running for the water pics? If you can get away with it ISO1600 is always good for that as you can see the droplets of water, but depends if your sensor gets too grainy when you do it.

 

[Djw John]

Just an iso of 80, camera only goes to 800 iirc.

I like getting the look of the water running hence the low iso but I'll certainly try raising it up Mike, cheers.

Al, na not today

 

[Jonaldinho]

Nice pics sir! See your getting fond of my area. lol

 

[McBunny]

first few are all under exposed as its meetering wrong due to the bright water


iso wont affect you seeing the droplets of water really its just down to shutter speed

not completely true.... iso is the film speed... meaning that less light is required to take the image.... you wouldnt shoot a 40iso for a sports game etc... so by raising the iso it will adjust the metering bumping the shutterspeed up...

so bumping up the iso would in effect make the camera meter different meaning you need a faster shutterspeed thus freezing the droplets.

and by the looks of things it was spot metered which is why the water is overexposed compared to the rest...

 

[McBunny]

yes true but its not the way to do it is it faster glass is ! thats the best way to increase the amount of light getting in


the thing that controls freezing of motion is shutter speed you may need to up the iso to increase you ability to stop action but its not whats responsible for it

 

[Brown.]

Keep iso the same......dont increase iso. dont go higher then 800 anyway. this will give noisy images, just take a pic at 250ths to get water droplets.!!! ......lower the apature size, get it on a tripod, 1 second shutter and get your milk on!!!......

 

[Djw John]

How do I lower apeture size on a wee point and shoot without an instruction manual though?! Canon IXUS60 btw!

 

[dick]

you probably cant.

get shopping

 

[Brown.]

B setting, there will be a setting trust me, might only let you go up to 3 seconds though.

or stop being tight and get a decent featured camera

 

[Andy.]

Nice shots & stunning location.

 

[Djw John]

Really want a DSLR but all my cash seems to be finding its way onto the car atm!

 

[JJ!]

Ixus 60 will not allow you to manually change shutter or aperture. Great pics for a p@s.... get a D40... cheap as chips for an SLR!

 

[Djw John]

It would need to literally be as cheap as chips for me to buy it just now!
