I mean when you shoot, u need to get the exposure right first, I don think ur camera metering gives this kind of exposure?

histogram.
spot metering.

Agito666 - your shots are under-exposed. so let's not go into the OVER / UNDER exposed thing first. let's just go for getting the exposure right.

now my question to you would be ........

a) what's your D70's LCD brightness setting at?
b) how's your computer's LCD brightness setting at?

Why no go and trial and error? =)

Shoot ur friends, things , get used to it.

Anyway good luck

is it demb flip-it? while some people praise it, I didn't like the output with it.

so with your demb, you can try a few ways la

a) the usual setup - diffusers on front with the big white pieces on 45 angle. (whatever you see on the product photo la)
b) just using the white piece alone.

you'll be surprised how option B, meaning a really wide white bounce card for diffusion could turn out better. if not then just the the cheap cheap stofen, RM 20 type.

oh i forget see histogram
i just see the meter in viewfinder ...adjust it to exact middle then shoot ><

D70s LCD is 0, monitor is err... duno... office monitor got problem with black and white saturation so i not really can see the 8 levels of white if you show the chart of whiteness. ><

anyway i just discover the flickr got Piknik edit feature maybe try edit from there again see...

i usually do option B, n i put it vertically straight
this acts like built in bounce card which cant b used in portrait orientation, very good substitution

(although im using fake 1 la )

hehe. yeah cannot use in portrait orientation. this is where taufufah and stofen shines at. taufufah actually give very nice output.

i don't use histogram. i use evaluative metering.

another thing you can do is to get used to the LCD la. for me i adjust my camera LCD brightness to match my work machine LCD. so with that, I don't get misled by my camera LCD.

basically just take 1 image and put into your CF. load it on your camera, and load it on your computer. see how much difference are they.

some people adjust full brightness on their camera LCD - later come back see their photos are actually dull.

Anyone here use lee gnd filter before?

i roughly compared my both lcd, office and home LCD, office one of course sucks because i go to http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/white.php i saw "200" only meanwhile my personal can see 8 levels of white saturation.

now back to the camera LCD, found out the colour is a bit contrast/ saturation compare to my monitor. so should i adjust my camera LCD to -2? default is 0.

LOL, my office one can only see 200 clearly and 244 barely noticeable ._. Wonder how my home unit would fare though.

up to you - just adjust to make sure it doesn't mislead you kau kau.

hmm...my home one can see up to 252.

wah - that's bad.

I'm using Dell 2007WFP - S-IPS panel and calibrated with Spyder3Express - even at 254 can see very slight shade difference.

monitor helps the output a lot.

I remember back when I was doing web site maintenance for a particular college. I tell you, vomit blood. I adjust picture nicely already they come say too dark la this la that la. I go over and see their monitor. their WHITE was GRAY!!!! so you can imagine la their maroon, dark blue and dark brown are all practically black.

Haha! Well that's why my pics looks like less detail on my office computer . Its those cheapo monitor to be honest. But my home one then again not a good one.. but at least more details.

Speaking about the Spyder3Express, it is worth grabbing one? I'm thinking to get one to calibrate my monitors at home.

ya i got same situation before, because i using desktop in ex-company then my boss complain the photo i edit got noise then ya, his pc is laptop so of course the colour is better than my monitor.

next time interview wan request geng geng monitor if do designing work.
