[QUOTE="Lakeside Annie, post: 152169, member: 14240"] What sort of Zoom do I have? You mean my zoom lens? It's a [URL="http://nikonites.com/products/showentry.php?e=53"]AF-S DX NIKKOR 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR[/URL] It really is not fast enough for this type of indoor lighting. AND because the lighting varies so much within a show ring, I set my camera to Sports Mode, Continuous Shutter Release and click away, hoping for something good to come of it. ;) Of the shots I've posted in the above posts, the iso varies between 2200 and 3200 (automatically determined by the camera on Sports Mode.) I have played with White Balance. But mostly I like to bump up the brightness and add some clarity, sharpening, etc. If I ~know~ what type of lights we're under, I'll see if I have a setting for it in Lightroom. i.e. if I ~know~ I'm under fluorescent lighting, I'll change it to that. Or if it's a cloudy day (for outdoors) I'll change it to that and see if the colors look similar to the way my eye saw it. [/QUOTE]
