Description


.::FULL VIEW PLEASE FOR FULL DETAILS::. Hello To All I will be short as posible!! On this SHOT i used the new Rebel XTi 400D with approx 10.5MP And i mentioned that i don't know what i did wrong with the settings! Well.. Just to let you all know, that i always break the shooting rules and techniques!! And never faced any problem like this before in my life! I did the last test on 5 of my Cameras now! 1- Canon EOS Rebel 400D Xti 2- Canon EOS 20D-A for Astrophotography 3- Canon EOS 30D 4- Canon EOS 5D 5- Canon EOS 1Ds Mark II I used the same settings on that link i just attached! Also tried over 20 Different Canon EF-S and EF Lenses on all of them!! Still the same results!!! From No. 2 to No. 5 Are PREFECT!! (SAME SETTINGS SAME LENSES AND ATTACHED EQUIPMENTS) But the first one is totally wrong!! I will post the results/tests one by one so you can compare.. At the main time, I decided to send that Camera to the CANON Canadian Factory for checkup and to change the whole thing and transform it into IR CAMERA!! "Sensor Change"! Decided finally to get the new NIKON D2Xs. Sigh! Hope you will enjoy NATTARIOUS[C] COLOURS and as always, comments/reviews are most welcome Thank you and regards, JOE Used Camera And Settings For The Above Shot: Camera: Camera #2 Canon EOS 20Da [XOOM PRODUCTIONS COMMERCIAL FIRMWARE] Lens: Canon EF 100MM Macro - f/2.8 Lens: Tamron 2X Magnifying extension - Attached to camera Lens: 4X Magnifying filter - Attached to the lens Bit Depth: 24Bit Creation Software: Adobe Photoshop CS2 ME 9.3 Colour Representation: UnCalibrated for my COPYRIGHTS Shutter Speed: 1/45 Sec Lens Aperture: F/2.8 Flash: None Tripode: None Focal Length: 100MM Super Macro ISO Speed: ISO-100 Metering Mode: Pattern MANULA FOCUSING Exposure Program: Normal Warm Colours: 6800K Extra Camera Settings: Sharpnedd +1 - Tones +2 - Contrast -1 - Saturations +2 Note: SHOT AS IS!!Those setting were used about 2:15PM yesterday!

Fantastic photo!! Lighting, details, POV...it all comes together! Suggestion...take one camera, take one exposure at the largest f-stop, then another stop smaller, and so on to the smallest aperture, at 1/60th, and the right exposure will be in there! The trick is to get the subject to cooperate!
