Hey all,
I haven't updated my website in over a year for several reasons. The main one
being that my digital camera is a dinosaur that has really frustrated me with
its inablity to take pictures that I feel are usable. It's an Olympus D-360L
from the Cretaceous era! I went to my local camera shop today and the clerk
marveled at the size of the case, since most digital cameras now could pass for
credit cards. I was hoping I could find a suitable replacement for around $200.
Wishful thinking!
Here's a link to my camera's specifications, hope I formatted it correctly!
<<http://www.dcresource.com/reviews/cameraDetail.php?cam=200>>
Here's my situation:
-Lego room with direct north-facing window that gets no direct sunlight.
-Two 500w 120v tungsten lamps
-Tablecloth in Sea Foam-type color for neutral background
-Tripod
The only settings on the camera I can use are:
-White Balance: Camera is now set to Tungsten, was using Auto (D'OH!)
-ISO choices: Auto, 125, 250 or 500? Using 250 now.
-Spot Metering or ESP? I don't quite grok either of these terms completely.
Thanks for any advice you'd care to provide!
Dave S.
