Fun in the Garden!
Hey all,

Re: Fun in the Garden!
I told my rabbit nobody was bothered about him and cried.
A lot. |

Re: Fun in the Garden!
I took a million damn bee shots that day and not one of them came out good
 What are the ideal settings for macro?? |

Re: Fun in the Garden!
f/8 and a fast shutter speed, or a wider aperture if you want
 , basically isolate the subject, and try to get light to be in a good place to both illuminate but not blow out the subject (cos we can all control the sun right?) Cute wabbit |

Re: Fun in the Garden!
No actually I don't. Some may find that odd, but I never have for my flower shots, I just optimise to get the fastest shutter speed I can, and then hold my breath
I find a tripod restricting, (plus mine's total £$%&  ), so I don't. Don't use flash either, except fill for some bird shots (of which I don't take many). |

Re: Fun in the Garden!
Yeah I couldn't keep up with flies etc using the tripod so just went hand held - i'd deffo use my benbo for flowers though because it's so damn flexible
Btw I took your advice and got a 70-300 APO! |
