Old man & the Tricycle

jsbn · 21st December 2004

Taken with Canon EOS 300D, 1/13, f/8, ISO100, 18mm focal length

Honestly, I was banging my head when this appeared, cos it could have been a beautiful shot. But my EF-S 18-55mm lens was too slow, fast changing lighting and of cos, I was in such a hurry to take it that I juz fired without noticing the shutter speed and thus, presenting to u guyz, a wasted shot.

it may be evidently a hurried shot, but the content is good. the picture of the old man riding on a child's tricycle looks cute.

maybe it's a cloudy day...to play safe...up your iso to 400 or 800 if you want to...no harm in trying.

Noted.

But on my 300D, I hesitate at bumping the ISO up to 400, even more so at 800.

be not afraid...only be afraid if your cam is not working...he he he

noise will not be a great issue if you dont mind (which i dont mind at all)...frankly...be flexible, cos you are not using film to shoot...shoot at 1600 indoors if you want...no harm, simply no harm

and also try the multiple burst if you want to...or maybe switch the dial to sports (the ISO will be default to 400 which you cant change)...and your lense will AF like mad on your subject (but will drain your batt ya)

have fun shooting
