Hi everyone,
Being a newbie to SLRs, I need some advice from the experts here. Pls dun flame me if I get anthing wrong. :embrass:
I've been playing around with my G2 and 420EX flash for a while. Being interested in slides and negatives, I got myself a EOS30 and 28-105mm f3.5-4.5 lens.
As i have been arrowed by a fren to help him take some photos during a function at a hotel, I have been thinking of using Press 800. To get the feel of the kind of meter reading I would get from my camera, I tried it at home first (night time in my room with the fluorescent light switched on). I set up my EOS30 with 420EX flash on and iso to 800. I set the camera to AV mode with f-value to 3.5 at 28mm. The shutter speed I was getting was around 1/10 to 1/30. It quite low to handheld the camera at this kind of shutter speed.
Is there any workaround solution to this? Thank you!!!
