[QUOTE="jherring002, post: 472789, member: 38994"] Are you using flash? If so, the way that I have done shoots to get the same look is to set my camera to manual. Set your shutter speed to the max shutter speed sync (mines 1/200th) ISO I leave at 100 Aperture (play with this. I like f2.8-7.1 range depending on what I'm shooting) Set your white balance to flash if you are shooting jpeg. Now set your flash to manual and take some test shots adjusting the flash power and nothing else until you get the look you want. Once you get the look you want, you may want to put some tape down to mark where you have things set up. Moving things will give you a different look. Also if you have 2 flashes, you may want to use one of them to flash the background to get that clean white look. If only one flash is available, move the flash back as far as possible as the light falloff is not as great the farther the light source is away from the subject. Some rules when using flash: Shutter doesn't control flash power, only ambient light. So if you want to include some light other than the flash slow down your shutter speed to like 1/60th. Change only one setting at a time and take a shot to see what it does. If flash is over powered and blowing out the subject, camera settings aren't what you want to change. Change your flash power or your flash distance. Hope this helps. Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
