More manual on the EOS 300
So I’m trying to learn to meter more intuitively and how to use the manual controls of my cameras better. To that end I’ve started shooting more in manual mode and trying out different metering systems/schools/thoughts.
Getting more clouds
I have tried to meter for the sky and get better definition in the clouds.
Better shadows
I tried a bit to meter for the shadows, “Expose for the shadows” - will put more effort in to this in the future.
Bonus shots
I am thinking that I need to overexpose HP5+ a bit, at least in the EOS 300 - thinking about running ISO 320 next roll.
It is not a UFO, it’s just a car (=
The new camera - Pentax K1000
Bought a new camera, a Pentax K1000, in real bad shape. I really like the feel, size and controls - it’s a keeper but needs some work.
It takes beautiful pictures but the shutter curtains lag and go out of sync on faster speeds, so I’ve sent it off to get some TLC - can’t wait to get it back!
