Ah okay, thanks. So ... ( 3 weeks ago by Smeggypoo)
Ah okay, thanks. So I should always use a small f-number when I shoot at night? But then I won't get lots of focus (like you showed in one of your other vids).
You've got it - a ... ( 3 weeks ago by cameralabs)
You've got it - a small f-number means a large aperture and the maximum light coming through the lens, but also a small depth of field. A large f-number means a small aperture and more in focus, but less light gets in. You can use large f-numbers for night photography for a bigger depth of field, but you'll need longer shutter speeds to compensate for the small aperture, and if they go beyond 30 seconds, you'll need to use Bulb mode with a cable release. Ultimately it's all about experimenting!

good video, i am a beginner...did you need to use flash for night photography?
You can use a flash ... ( 3 weeks ago by cameralabs)
You can use a flash if you'd like to illuminate a person close to the camera - but it'll only be effective for a few meters, so if the subject is further way, don't bother.

hi. I use a Nikon D300 and D700, and I noticed noise at higher ISO in the night for these two cameras changes with the amount of light available. Lesser light, more noise. Is this normal?
The greatest and ... ( 2 weeks ago by Luisao69)
The greatest and the most versatil is Canon EOS 400D or 450D.. I have 400D and 40D and I prefeer the first.. less weight, and more or less the same quality. And if you combine that with an 18-200 you have camera for all kind of situations I think.. Im just a rockie in photography.. but its a great hobbie!
Great video! Thanks! from Spain.
Yep, the less light ... ( 2 weeks ago by cameralabs)
Yep, the less light there is, the more you will notice noise.

sorry, i'm a beginner and may i know whats noise people are talking about in photography?
Noise is the ... ( 1 week ago by cameralabs)
Noise is the texture and random specks you see in shadows or on flat areas of colour (like a blue sky) on a photo. As the ISO increases, so does the noise. PS - Don't forget to check the actual dslrtips . com site for more tips, and also the dslrtips section on the cameralabs forums if you have any questions...

is there any tips when trying to get a picture with a human subject while trying to get a good exposure of the background. Is it going to be a problem since its hard to get the person completely still.
It's surprisingly ... ( 5 days ago by cameralabs)
It's surprisingly easy! Just follow the tutorial at dslrtips . com and force your flash to fire. The flash will illumionate the person and any movement will be mostly invisible - but ask them to stay as still as possible anyway!

thanks alot! but do u have anyway where i can take night picture (human) with the shutter speed/aperture being low and not have blur picture since human tends to move alot?

Someone just asked this two posts comments down! Just follow the night tutorial at dslrtips . com but force your flash to fire. The flash will illuminate the person and any movement will be mostly invisible - but ask them to stay as still as possible anyway!

but is there anyway doing so without having to use the flash? it tends to create shadow which irritates me alot.
Keep your subject ... ( 1 day ago by xtysonboswellx)
Keep your subject in the dark and pick a bright background then use a slow shutter sync, or second curtain shutter setting on your flash, this will give your background extra time to expose before the flash fires exposing the subject.
