DSLR Camera Settings Part 1
Greeting,
Being ever on the lookout to improve my craft
here is a tally of current camera settings for my aging
but still faithful
Canon EOS D60 (to be replaced on active service in a matter of months) ...
Id like to encourage your collective input on what might be changed
or left alone
to better realize the dual aims of improved : - (a) serious DSLR photography in general; and (b) aviation
photography in particular. Since your combined experience f-a-r exceeds mine
Im open to any and all constructive suggestions. This is a multi-message thing.
Heres my current setup:
Quality Selection: - Large/Fine
one less than RAW.
Recording Size: - 3072 x 2048.
Recording Method: - JPEG.
Compression Ratio: - Low.
Size of One Image: - 2.5 MB.
ISO Speed: - 200 (sometimes more when light conditions fade).
Processing Parameters (Contrast/Sharpness/Saturation/Color Tone): - Standard.
AF Mode: - One-Shot.
AF Point Selection: - Auto.
Metering Mode: - Evaluative
Partial
Center-Weighted.
[This is what I need to perfect
what mode to use consistently
plus when
and how
to compensate for situations where AE photography just falls short.]
[more to come]
