@mitsubishidiamante Hi, sounds cool, I hope the shots turn out great. Remember, you're indoors and there may not be too much light. In order to get the fast shutter speeds required you'll probably need to increase the ISO. You may also want to try shooting with the Center Weighted Avg. or Spot metering modes, otherwise the meter may account for the dark background and over expose the subject. Best of luck and have fun.
Thank you so much. I bought this camera to take pictures at my son's basketball games and the default sports mode was AWFUL!!!! Watching you explain it was much easier than reading the manual. I've bookmarked you and will watch all your videos.
Great Tutorials, I just bought this camera my first SLR. I have one question though, when you adjust your shutter speed to 1/500, increase ISO to 400, your shutter speed is fine at F5. When I try it on my camera, the aperture still flashes even when my settings are as yours. What effects this? Is it just th elevel of light available or is the type of lens a big part too? Sorry if this is stupid question. Thanks again your videos have helped me a lot.
Hi, It sounds like you're doing everything right, it's just a matter of not having enough light. I have 4 125W light bulbs very close to my scene. That's 500W of light. Try pointing the camera out a window and then press the shutter button half way. On a sunny day, you should be at 1/500, f5, and 100 ISO. I hope that helps. Let me know if that wasn't the problem.
