Hello Nikonites,
I a new member to this forum. Photography is a hobby, and more particularly fitness / sports photography. I am trying to improve my skills so I have been “covering”local fitness open days.
As I mostly shoot in sports halls and dance studios where there is artificial lighting such as fluorescent or incandescent lights, I would like to know if you would advise me to stick with auto white balance (and let my D3100 decide) or to use a manual preset. I have done some basic tests and have found that the auto setting seemsto give better results but then I am no expert and perhaps I am missing some vital tips and tricks.
I just wanted to say that I usually do not use flash (I have bought a flashgun but I have just started to learn how to use it). Thank you in advance for any help.
