Blown Exposure


Every time I use this camera in the bright snow, the resulting image is always over exposed. This keeps on happening in TV mode. When I put the camera in manual mode, realized the reason. The maximum aperture on this camera is f8. The lens for my DSLR's have a maximum aperture of f22. So, the moral of the story is, increase the shutter speed. I did exaggerate the contact in this photo.

  1. I like how it's difficult to tell if the image is a macro or a standard shot. It looks like a landscape of some distant planet.

    Good info on the aperture and shutter speed. I've got a few pics to upload a little later today, from my trip to Atlanta this past week. I'm already wanting one of those cords, to allow me to utilize the flash off-camera. My 430ex didn't come with a cord.
