[QUOTE="WhiteLight, post: 175353, member: 9556"] Nice paintings! Well it depends on a number of factors... firstly make sure you in a controlled lighting environment & there is no light falling directly on the painting. Tripod is advisable as you certainly need ISO 100 (maybe a wee bit more if the lighting is low) Choose M mode.. The aperture value does not make any difference as you will be photographing a 'plane' - the canvas, so DOF is not in the question. Usually most lenses have their sweet spot at around f/8 The camera will tell you what the shutter speed must be for that ISO & aperture setting you've selected. Set it to that.. use a remote release so there is no camera shake. make sure that the painting is exactly parallel to the sensor on your camera so you will have an evenly focussed canvas.. [/QUOTE]
