Do you get dizzy looking at this? I can't figure out if it has a neat effect, or if I'm just getting dizzy looking at it.


I need help with both day and night settings on my XT. I have never really had a camera that I could adjust settings, and I know a ton of people either have the XT or XTI that could maybe hook me up with some starting points on settings with the XT. Anyone wanna help me out?

Play with the settings, learn.

what lens were you using? looking at the data, you were shooting with a f7.1 and a shutter of .8" you could have also brought the ISO to 1600, and adjusted the f stop so you could get a faster shutter speed. But I think ultimately you either needed a faster lens or a tripid for that

Yeah I definitely need a tripod. Went out for helo ops today, they let me take pictures while underway, so I have about 120 pictures of us training, and with the helo about 10 feet above us. Making a new thread for it though.
