TreeWalker Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 This was the sight I was blessed with on my way to work the other morning......fog had settled in the valleys as the sun was just peaking up, made for some beautiful colors and a landscape that almost didn't seem earthly.....

[/ QUOTE ] Yes it was....and I'm still trying to figure out all of the features of my newer Kodak...DX6490.....still ending up with some blurry images, but i think I've got some of it figured out.....mostly focus issues when in manual mode.....toys, toys, toys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreeWalker Posted June 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 Re: Foggy Morning Scenery I suppose I need to really watch my movement with the zoom on this camera then ?? I haven't used a tripod yet, cause it's just to much of a pain to lug around allof the time.......I suppose it would be worth it to take the extra time...

Shutter Posted June 17, 2005 Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 Re: Foggy Morning Scenery well, I totally agree a tripod is a very big inconvenience. A monopod helps, but can still be a big inconvenience.. Here is the thing to look for.. when you half press the shutter, you should be able to see your aperature and shutter speed (eg, f2 1/125s) or something similiar to that in your LCD/view finder IF your shutter speed is reading less than 1/100s (mine only displays 100, but that represents 1/100s), then there is a good chance that you will blur the shot due to hand shake. It is just too hard for someone to hand hold a shot that slow.. It can be done, and there are a couple of tricks for shooting from the hip, but you are taking a gamble. This really only applies for low light situations (including indoor shots). That's why the camera is slowing down the shutter speed so much, so it can gather enough light to properly expose the photograph. If you find yourself shooting with a shutter less than 1/100s, you will have to either bump up the ISO, force the camera to shoot at 1/100s via shutter priority (may cause your photo to be a little underexposed, but its better than a blurred shot), and or you can stop down your aperature (field of view) if you still have room to adjust(around f2).. I didnt intend for this to be a technical document on photography.. but I REALLY know how frustrating it can be to get blurred shots and I deal with it to some degree everytime I shoot early morning or late evening wildlife. do you know how to view the exif data on your existing (blurred) files? That will indicate what your shutter speed was when you captured the shot.. to view the exif on a jpeg file, right click on the file, go to properties, click on summary, click on advanced, and presto, you have the technical details of that photograph. fire away if you have any questions..

TreeWalker Posted June 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 Re: Foggy Morning Scenery My Camera is a Kodak DX6490 and I am only getting the hang of it.....I just started messing with f-stops and shutter speeds....I am quite a novice, and this is quite a step up from our ol. CX7300 series..... But it sure is fun to use......can't wait to do some video with it......I may be buggin ya in PM's from time to time, LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
