ps:vI dont know how to post up a flickr video here

Question, how come the photos look like bouncing again?

Did you set your focus to manual?

direct flash?

does this setting can be applied to d3100?

try experimenting, everybody's preferences are different, for my D3100 i prefer vivid

Yeap, direct flash. Nothing for me to bounce, nobody to hold my flash either LOL~

hahaha may i know how long have you had your D700? ><

so I noticed your pics from the Genting thread.. your using Vivid with or without some post processing ?
the colors are so vibrant



d3100 have Picture Control too right ? so yeah, it should be.

lol that was cameron, not genting >< yeah that time i was using vivid, i adjusted the saturation in vivid up 1 stop(i guess i can use the word stop >< )... i didn't pp saturation on those photos I love using vivid for nature shots

I got it recently, during KLIMS10. December 2010.

This is what happens when body is weather sealed, flash is weather sealed, but the lens isn't .

Hey celciuz, what do u mean bounce? I set the focus to continuous single. Im not sure how to use the lock focus. Mind to teach me?

Hmm, like in the video right... can see your photo some shifted a bit.. not smooth cause if you're on a tripod composition is fixed right?

I think your camera refocus somehow. Next time you do this, try focusing then set to manual focus. See if it still happens or not.

ok, thanks bro

what is your setting for vivid ?

yea i guess it is trying to hunt for focus as the scene changes everytime and it will go blank on the roof of the opera house in some scenes. Will try to shoot again next week! So what u mean is once i get the focus, straight away change to manual focus so that it will be consistent at all picture rite? I rmb there is a usage of aelock something like that. Not sure how to use it though. Yea i mounted it on my tripod and im still waiting for the timer remote control to arrive. Once it arrived it is all set to go! Cheers!

AD= Actual Day. Drag down the shutter means use a low ss.

As for the aperture, depends on what you want. Like if yam seng part you want.wide shot and get the guests into the context then you need to use smaller aperture to have sharper focus, else larger aperture if you want to bokeh out the background and single out the subject matter.

Yeah, what I would do is to focus then set to manual focus to ensure lens does not try to focus anymore. Then again, this is landscape your subject doesn't move (should not ).

Gaodem your morning session already?

I had used automatic ISO setting. Lowest SS at 1/80 and highest ISO at 1600. Flash set to i-TTL and flash sync 1/250. Flash aimed straight up and sometime one step towards the front. I tried shooting at aperture 5.6 and 8 also getting the background (further part) of the ballroom darkened as if there's no light

What's this flash sync at 1/250?

Just done. Took me some effort to tune my brain to wedding mode again since I've last shot 3 months ago and has been shooting a lot of portraiture lately
