SLR/P&S owners- Have a question for you...
Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?
I was taking pictures of friends and family last night, and I don't know what I'm doing wrong/how to improve.
We were in my friend's finished basement, and when I turned the flash on, faces were really bright (while background was dark), but when I had the flash off, the pictures taken were blurry.
In situations like these, what could I be doing to avoid these pictures? I feel like I can never take a good picture unless we're outdoors in natural sunlight. (I was taking with my Canon P&S.)
fwiw, I had a Canon P&S, but we also do own a Nikon D60.
Re: SLR/P&S owners- Have a question for you...
Any speedlite you'd recommend for my Nikon D60? Are they worth it?
I did see the Sb400 on Amazon- thanks for the rec! I'm assuming this would work for my D60 too?
What is the main difference b/w SB 400 and SB 700? fwiw, I mostly do photography with friends/portraits and food...
ETA: How can I get better pictures by using my Canon P&S?
I have a Canon P&S and a Rebel. The Rebel is MUCH better in low-light situations like you're describing, but I think you can make it work with the P&S if you back as far away as possible from the subjects when using the flash, so the faces won't be washed out w/ a black background. You'll just have to zoom in more to compensate.
I find using my P&S indoors w/o a flash always yields crappy pictures.
