[QUOTE="Panza, post: 538382, member: 28379"] When she smiled, her eyes did not give the contrast I needed. I was frustrated with this but only because of my inadequacies as a photographer. I think a way to overcome this would've been to direct her to look my way, focus while her eyes are open, remove my finger from back button focus, tell her to smile, snap. I'll try spot metering and try to replicate best methods here in my office. I'm practicing for upcoming weddings so I'm using AF-C. For things slower paced portraiture, ideally, I should and would use AF-S. [/QUOTE]
