@doxxy Whee!
Longer exposure and lower ISO actually works great for reducing /noise/, but increases /blur/.
@IceWolf Blur = speed must be fast photos!
@doxxy Ehhh depends on how steady your paws are! >,,>
@doxxy If you have long enough exposures, camera shake starts to become a problem.
@doxxy oh!! or d'you mean 'it's blurry so it must be a fast photo'? Oops!
@IceWolf I tried manual settings and made a fully black image! :D
@doxxy Hah! :3
(if you don't know how the different settings interact, we can help with that!)
@IceWolf I've only got basic clues right now. I'm trying to identify which thingy and how to change it right now.
I found ISO, Shutter Speed, and fstops (can't remember what fstops do)
@doxxy fstops is aperture! i.e. how wide open the light hole is.
โ ISO is the amplification of the sensor: turn it up, get brighter but noisier images.
โ Shutter speed is, well, shutter speed. If it's faster (1/higher numbers), you get a dimmer picture, but less blur, and vice versa.
โ (The photo is effectively an /overlay/ of a bunch of instantaneous captures, so moving the camera while it's taking a photo blurs the picture. Really long exposures get you things like star trails, but you better grab a tripod for that.)
โ Aperture: wider aperture โ LOWER f-stop numbers, for some reason โ gets you more light, and also more depth-of-field background/foreground blur!
@IceWolf ... ... ... Well. It's yellow! XD
@doxxy If auto white balance makes it yellow, try "daylight".
@IceWolf I'm shooting in RAW, yes. ๐ท
@doxxy :3 !
food-adjacent? definitely kinda silly
@doxxy Raw images, all the tastier! *licks fangs*
re: food-adjacent? definitely kinda silly
@IceWolf I'm sure robowoof thinks so.
re: food-adjacent? definitely kinda silly
@doxxy *beeps*
(...I mean, I just said I did? I don't really get the point >,,>)
(unless it was just to point out that I'm a robowoof, in which case *beep*)
@IceWolf I just realized I wasn't following you. I was confused when you didn't show up in my timeline but you did in my notifications.
@doxxy oopsie! I was surprised too!
@IceWolf So I did a series with different shutter speeds and got a nice one that isn't yellow! Now to see if I'm happy with the grains in RawTherapy. x3
@doxxy Nice! =^.^=
@IceWolf Whuh! Messing with white balance and the yellow is gone!
@doxxy Figured! Bet the camera's auto-white-balance just got confused. :3
@doxxy The camera's white balance setting doesn't affect the RAW data at ALL.
@IceWolf Maybe! I got no clue. x3
@doxxy Yellow? *blinks, amused whuffs* Check your white balance.
If you're shooting in RAW white balance doesn't matter for later, you can fix it in post, but still.
