Daniel The Cool

so I was using Incandescent the past few months alot. Do I need to laid that off and try something different or stick with it?

how about Cloudy White Balanced Mode for the underground shots?

Try Indoor, Dusk/Dawn, Sunset and Museum. Still try other scenes too other than the ones I listed.

ok. I'll try more of those scenes Thursday.

what other scenes are good for underground train shots?

Is this the camera you're talking about? If so, then you are able to set your ISO manually (your camera has ISO settings from 64 to 1600). When you take pictures underground, be sure to set the ISO to at least 400, or higher if needed. Hold the camera still, and hold the camera straight as well. This will improve how your pictures come out. If you look at your camera there will be a setting on Image Resolution. Always set this to at least 5M (2592x1944), or to a higher resolution. A higher resolution means that your camera can capture more detail in the photos. For white balance, set it to Flourescent or Incandescent depending on what kind of light there is in the station (usually Flourescent). I find that for Night mode, you have to keep the camera really still, especially since you're not using Flash.

 

But MOST IMPORTANTLY, your photo quality depends on what you take photos of. No matter how good your photo quality is it's not going to make a picture of the middle of the train, or a rollsign, any better.

wrong about setting ISO Manually. That camera ISO range cannot be set manually. It says lowest ISO Sensitivity which is 64 and highest Sensitivity which is 1600. That means that it auto ISO.

Depends on if your taking photos underground or overground.

I'm asking for like underground shots by using scenes meaning whats the good scenes to used for underground shots?

The thing with a lot of point and shoot cameras is that you can't customize setting. I'm not familiar with the one you have, but the factors causing blurry pictures are: shutter speeds and exposure in the most part. Can you manually change those?

I can change Exposure Compensation.

BTW what are the best scenes to set your camera on when your taking pics? I have portrait, Landscape, Sports, Night portrait, Party/Indoor, Beach/Snow, Sunset, Dusk Dawn, Night Landscape, Close Up. Museum, Copy, Backlight, Panorama assist.

Which one out of those are the best for taking subway pics?

I've been trying to find ways how to improve my pics quality on my Nikon L18 and they either come out blurry, too light or too dark. Does anyone know anything like settings, tips or any suggestions how to take pics with really good quality? I can't set my own ISO range. But was wondering if anyone can help me.

Here's my top 2

Daniel

even though this thread is old I just saw this thread and was wondering can you post more of the tips please?

when did you get Vista?

I'm getting a new camera later this month or early July and I need your guys opinion on what camera model should I get. The camera I want is Sony Cybershot W220 cause It has has manual settings and you can record High Deffinition Videos. What do you guys think?

guys check out 2 of my latest photos thread for cooler and better option on photos

ok does anyone else have suggestions.

I've found a new setting on camera on White Balanced for underground shooting photos which is Incandescent, Fluorescent and for above ground daylight. So are those the cool settings I've found and I need to know if those settings are good?

The second question is that should I try doing the IRT 7th Avenue Lines or the BMT Broadway Lines all the way downtown or the IND 8th Avenue Line stations which is 14th Street , Canal Street or World Trade Center

digital image stabilization is really useless it just bumps up the ISO

you want optical image stabilization, which actually shifts the lens along with your hand shakes to balance it out

 

for me its manual settings lol in my opinion get a camera with manual settings and your good

the Sony W220 Has manual ISO settings.

But one time over a year ago you posted some pics with a Nikon D40.

that wasn't me

That doesn't mean all Fujifilms are bad, it just means that particular model is bad. You need to shop for cameras by features, not just brands. For example, if you're going to take mainly subway pictures, you would need a camera with a digital image stabilization mode, High ISO mode, fast shutter speed, etc. BTW, I thought you had a Nikon D40?

no In said if I won the photo contest I'll buy the Nikon D40

Why don't you want Fujifilm or Hp? If they make good cameras the brand doesn't matter.

my friend had Fujifilm but he said it took bad pics and remember Error said don't buy an Hp photosmart because there are bad, thats y I won't buy those cameras

Even though my birthday past my uncle is buying me a birthday present and I'm trying to figure out what camera model should I get for my present. I'm thinking of the Nikon L11, the Sony W220 or the Canon A590IS. What other model should I get guys and the max is $200.00.

Note: This is propose option of getting a new camera and it's unknown If I want something else for present and I don't want Fujifilm or Hp Photosmart.

other wishlist camera is Sony Cyber-shot W220 Digital Camera 12.1Megapixels

Well, for a 12.1 Megapixel Cam with Memory Stick Pro -Duo at 180 bucks sharp. This one looks like a deal to me! So, go ahead and spoil yourself and get it, !

 

Although, I still recommend cameras that accept AA batteries with SD Cards since that is more popular combo.

oh didn't know the camera dosn't hold Double AA

guys thats interesting cameras that you want

It's good, but you can get the older (and cheaper) versions of it, like the W80 or W120, etc. and still get similar quality in your pictures.

I'm just asking this so If have the extra Money, I'll save up for it

I was looking around at cameras and was just wondering if the Cyber-shot W220 Digital Camera any good? And how bout the Sony DSC-S950 Cyber-shot Digital Camera
