Lots of missing info....too much in fact fro anyone to give you an answer. First thing up though is you have to remember where that noise is generated. It is in the camera, more specifically the sensor. The sensor is an electronic device and so has energy applied at all times. this creates a certain level of heat which in turn causes spurious bursts of energy. It is latent, always there at a very low level. So when you have lots of light striking the sensor then the noise is drowned out since it resides only in the dark regions. Different sensors have differing sensitivities to light. the more sensitive they are the less noise appears because the sensor is grabbing that incoming light energy and over-riding the background levels....you pay more....much more the more sensitive your sensor is. So the sensor sets the inherent noise levels and sensitivity, noise is in the dark regions of the picture. too drop the noise in the picture you must increase the total amount of light absorbed. This means longer shutter times, wider apertures. Which in turn gives you less and less leeway against motion blur and ever decreasing DoF.s. That is a very mumbled explanation and if someone wants to jusmp in and correct or clarify please do so!

<p>I suspect what you are seeing is the TTL exposure flash (the first one). Set your flash to manual mode. Also double check that you actually have set your 2d curtain flash on the camera (not part of your problem, just a reminder to double check everything).</p>

Best portrait lens for shooting multiple people
didereaux replied to emily_stark1's topic in Canon EOS Mount
<p>The closest thing to a universal lens for portrait/group shooting is the 24-105mm lens. More successful pros use that lens than any other. read their interviews, blogs, books whatever...that is THE mandatory lens. All others can be added later.</p> -

This is a below average shot. Poor cropping, bad WB. I realize birds are not easy, I shoot a lot of bird shots so I am not being nasty here, just trying to set you on a different thought-approach when you do birds. A lot is post work, but a lot can still be done in those short time frames the birds give you. Keep at it, the fact that you seen this bird and got a clean shot is an accomplishment in itself.

<p>I may be all wrong, but I wondered the same thing. Eventually I found the 'submit for rating' selection with the 'submit for critique' one. Apparently if you submit for critique the rating is not activated, but if you submit for rating the critique is active. As I said I may be all wet on this, but no matter what it is a ridiculously convoluted way of doing things, and I think totally unnecessarally complicated.</p>
