[QUOTE="Eye-level, post: 46535, member: 6548"] This is where coming from a fully mechanical no battery no meter background helped me tremendously when I finally got a DSLR in my hands. I was already familiar with the light...eg. I know that in my house the light is usually F2.8 60 ISO 400...outside I always start at F16 and matching shutterspeed and ISO...with the D5000 I start at those landmarks if you will and then figure out my bearings from there. It's easy really once you get the hang of it. Think of it as sailing by the stars as opposed to sailing by GPS! hahaha And this is a thing...I say to you all challenge yourselfs..turn off all the auto stuff and shoot in manual mode...learn the fstops and speeds and isos...it will only make you a stronger photographer... Yes Stamatis show us some more examples please. Of the two motorcylce snaps the first one you posted is deluxe. The background is deluxe. The background and exposure in the second photo is deluxe. Deluxe, deluxe, deluxe because you are using your total skills instead of letting the camera do it for you... :) [/QUOTE]
