I dunno.

To me white balance helps a lot. Especially when using Tungstan.

For instance on these pics, but then again I enhanced it in PS :b

^ 1st requires a fish eye or atleast a fish eye attachment and with 1st pic possibly a lense tube/bellows attachment. 2nd yeah, most people use photoshop, apparently some dslrs have it build in but i would trust photoshop to do a better job than the computer in a camera...

EVERYONE IN YOUR PARTY HAS DIED. MANY WAGONS FAIL TO MAKE IT ALL THE WAY TO OREGON. DO YOU WANT TO WRITE YOUR EPITAPH?
 
^ yes, anything over 1/125 maybe 1/60 if you have really steady hands you shouldn't hold the camera when you take the picture.. i.e. self-timer, tripod, cable release, etc whatever it takes for you not to be holding it and the camera to shot... and at night your going to naturally need more exposure time because of less light... so night is naturally geared toward long exposure, but check things like white balance for good turn out...

but you can do long exposures during the day with either as stated filters or what I would suggest is close down the lense as much as you can i.e. f22, f32 or smaller...

do i do something with the iso ? Sorry for being a noob lol.
This got me wondering and I'm sure one of you guys more experienced with digital cameras can answer but does reciprocity failure exist with dslrs or no?

i.e. you set it up on manual or whatever, and you meter like f5.6 @ 1/4s then it would = f11 @ 1s at some point the equal but opposite doesnt work with film I was taught its after 2s you have to double the exposure to get it correct... does it work like that with digital or no? this long exposure thing got me wondering...

So should i use iso 80 ? Also, by checking white balance, do i adjust the colors or ? .. if so how ?


for a long exposure I personally would go with 800... but it costs you nothing but time to shot so try them all and go with what you like or post a few different iso's and we'll see whats happening. an iso 80 or 100 is technically for when you have a flash or flashes/strobes in a studio because there is going to be lots of light and an iso of 80 or 100 requires alot of light for reasonable exposure.

Also trust me for like classic trailing of head or tail lights of cars you dont need that long an exposure cars move fast enough i bet like even 1/8 would be enough but try to get in between 1/2 and 2s and just bracket the shot and go with what you like in the end.

white balance on digital as far as my limited understanding of digital goes its to set it against something white in the light setting your in. i.e. if its understreet lights at night, take like white peice of paper and at set it then. if its day light then set it under daylight with the white object.. I'm sure there is menu or whatever to set the white balance. and that will give you the most accurate to what your shooting actually looks like under that light.
 
Hey,

Just shot these recently... I just received a XTi last week and took 500 photos the first night. Haha, I went crazy. Feedback for these?

Also, thanks for all the compliments. Truly appreciated. And for the person
who asked, I touch up all my photos using Photoshop. As stated
previously, I feel it's a necessary step in photography (digital or film). Post
production is very vital.
 
would you guys recoommend nikon? i mean i know canon is the brand to get but in terms of DSLRs, is nikon just as good? i want to start this up as a hobby and lookin for a camera to get

read between the lines...​
