Photos taken by Pentax cameras for tech. discussion - Season II

[restigate]

this is probably becos in low light your camera will naturally choose a lower shutter speed if you're using low iso settings. this will lead to loss of sharpness if you can't hold your camera steady enough during the length of the exposure (camera shake). To reduce camera shake due to low shutter speed, you can either:

1) use flash to increase the light in the scene
2) choose higher iso so that you can use a faster shutter speed - this can be done in manual, Aperture or shutter priority modes.

Thanks for the advise stuck bro!

image stacking using the multiple exposure function is really useful!

Took some photos to brush up my skills @ the HDB Hub gallery.

I find that photo number 3 is abit blur. To be honest, i am finding it very very difficult to take a clear and sharp photo without the use of tripod. Is there any ways i can improve on this area?

What i use is the 18-55mm kit lens.

assuming bumping up ISO is not preferred...

i also find it difficult to take clear and sharp photo without a tripod...not just you... these are technical limitations, nothing to do with skill... even if someone have super steady hands, its just means he/she can handheld as steady as a tripod... a tripod is use to help steady the camera if ur hand cannot do it...

You can be the greatest photographer, but if u need a tripod, u use a tripod...simple as that...

great skills is not equal to no need tripod... unless its intentional, but of course if a great photograher takes a blur picture, it can be treated as art and ppl will still be in awe of the picture...:bsmilie:

Haha. Thank you Flowerpot bro!

Its just that for example, i see many bros here when shooting subjects, the subject is clear, focused and sharp. For me, I still cant grasp the technique.

I do agree with your point of view though.
