Hello,
I’m in the middle of doing a short photography course and this week is all about action. We are currently working in shutter priority mode. I went out and took some pics but I’m not happy with the results.
They seemed to look ok on my camera screen but as soon as I get home they are dark and blurry on the laptop / iPad. There was no sunshine whatsoever (was around 4pm) and it was dark and rainy. I used servo with servo+face tracking. I focused on his face from far away, half presssed the shutter then followed him, then clicked the shutter when he was in the puddle.
I set my shutter speed to 800 then set the iso to 3200. The camera chose f/2. Should I have increased the iso even more? I was worried about grain. Should I not have focused on him and just waitied until he was in front of me? should I have slowed the shutter speed to allow more light in? If I had done that would I have frozen the moment?
How do you know of you’ve got a ‘sharp’ image when out shooting? I feel like my camera screen is deceptive?
I was using a Canon M50 and a 22mm pancake. I have attached a screen shot of one of the images as it wouldn’t let me upload the larger file.
Thanks.
