I am REALLY looking for advice and tips.
This example is straight out of the camera, with the exception of being re-sized to fit in the post.
My camera is a D3100 and the lens is a 35mm 1:18G Nikon.
The area I was in is very shaded and I figured the 35 would be good for the lower light. The shot was taken with the following settings:
Quality: Fine
WB: Sun light (though flash did operate on some)
ISO: 100
AF-SCenter Area AF
Active D-Lighting: On
Those are the settings as found on the screen. I chose ISO100 because I thought the colors would be brighter. The rest of the settings were chosen because of assumed logic.
I'd like to know what I could have done for more vibrant pictures. Additional detail would have also been great. So, any tips would be appreciated. I took a couple hundred photos, and this just chosen at random to be representative.
Thanks.
