y didnt use the onbody flash?
@voip
y use servo n not ai?

Must use Servo la... Force the camera to continuous autofocus...

The AI is trying to be smart on choosing the one shot and continuous... And usually end up stupid decision... Since we already know must need continous... why still need to use AI?

Same thing if you already has the EF85 f1.8 USM... It should always use AV for wide open... best result... Why still need to dial to potrait mode for the camera to design bigger aperture? Since we already know we need wide open...

Got the pictures?

I think i used the ai only la.

Next time do try Servo... You will see big differences there

I felt if u want to improve, consider get urself an external flashgun. I bet ur pics will looked fantastic with better lighting from ur flash.

Ur pics will looked better if the model/subject is within the middle/center of ur pic and she looking at u.

Bcoz the internal flash is nt good lo,n it use alot of the battery.

Desmond, did you snap any pictures of the hair perm show?
If yes, please add me in MSN / YM ya

maybe low light... thats why blur

ya , maybe... coz some i "steal" some flash light from others... look nice

canon is not sharp, it is one of the reason i only recommand nikon and sony

Tumpang tumpang~!!

Anyone else went there to shoot?
Just trying my luck whether I can get few picz of myself or not
