john_robinson2 0 Posted July 7, 2003 Any helpful hints or tips on getting detail in the feathers would be appreciated. I just cant do it. (Fuji NPS, Eos 3, 300mm IS. L at f5.6) Flash? Reflectors? What? HELP !! Link to comment
joe_hodge 271 Posted July 7, 2003 I'm guessing this was a flash exposure with the flash as the primary light? In some ways it reminds me of P&S shots in a dark room with blown out highlights and blacked out backgrounds. I'm not a flash expert, but I think you need to dial it back a bit and get more ambient light involved. Link to comment
wogears 186 Posted July 8, 2003 No flash here, I think? No specular highlights, no catchlights... Link to comment
john_robinson2 0 Posted July 8, 2003 Ah ! [http://www.outsight.com/hyperfocal.html#nearfar] Plug in the numbers (300mm, 96 inches away, f5.6 and you get a DoF<1 inch !) Which is probably why its not as sharp as I would like! Thanks all for your comments! Link to comment
