[QUOTE="Pretzel, post: 299191, member: 12257"] Day 115 - blah... Short on time, saw an oddly colored bug hangin' out by the porchlight. Shot it with the kit lens. [ATTACH type="full"]85876._xfImport[/ATTACH] Day 116 - My son's recital day. Found a new way to screw up photos, too. Will see if it shows in the exif info. 1st, my boy with his mom and granny, quick shot before we ran inside. [ATTACH type="full"]85877._xfImport[/ATTACH] Then, a shot of him tickling the ivories. Can't decide if I like it more in color or B&W, although I'm leaning toward B&W... [ATTACH type="full"]85874._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]85875._xfImport[/ATTACH] Yup, it shows in the exif... had to doctor each of these photos by increasing the exposure PP. In manual mode, to adjust the shutter speed, you just spin the dial. To adjust aperture, you hold a button by the shutter release and spin the dial. Well, apparently, there another button up there that I've never used before, but if you hold it and spin the dial, it adjusts in-camera exposure compensation. Noticed my camera metering was WAY off, so kept trying to find a good fit, thought I had a repair issue coming up. *sigh* At least I know, now, what it was and have corrected the issue, although it was after a night of shooting. Will there EVER be a day when I will have sorted out all the dumb mistakes and don't make them any more?? [/QUOTE]
