Get your pics on!

Yeah you basicly turn it up and the more sensitive your sensor will be, so darker places will be lighter with a higher iso,
Although if you look at the sky in your photos you see the little dots everywhere, thats noise.
THat happens when you edit a photo a lot or have the ISO to high.
One last thing, if you like editing photos in PS, take photos in RAW mode.
cheers

Thanks for the tips mate, all taken into consideration !

Look it up dude! the more you increase it the more noise, or 'grain' the image gets. ISO is basically light sensitivity.

Yeah I did mate and I've been having a play with it, starting to half understand it now :P thanks

thanks QV. past the cube and tunnel, you werent missing much. kinda got boring. yeah opera house this year sucked. they know people go to vivid to take pics, and all they show is the guy and girl dancing around. so hard to take long exposure shots without jacking the iso. plus barely any colour

Yeah. I just made my white balance off so that it gets some colours. I still havent gotten a fast lens though. Noise performance just sucks on the 1Ds. Plus my sensor was dirty. Really should grab myself the 50mm, or the 40mm pancake coming out soon.

ISO? I'm still learning :P I go a bit mad with editing sometimes too :/

Hey nate, nice pictures!
Looks like you have your ISO a bit to high though, there is a bit of noise in those photos.

Lovely shots ecks! And I agree with you there. Vivid was way better last year. There were simply not enough light sculptures this time around, and the Opera House was quite boring.

Although, I did miss that light tunnel, and that cube. I only got to shoot from that screaming wall to the Opera house. Totally missed everying on the other side.

And as you can see I like my cons :P

Just to clearsomething up with some people who posted earlier, their is a difference between putting something out of focus, and bokeh, DOF with a low f stop, focused on an object will blur the background. Most people use the cheap $150 canon 50mm f1.8 to play with this.

[morganluke]

They're some awesome shots of Vivid! I'm heading there Saturday night. Hopefully the weather holds out

Thats the same lens I was using at the BBQ meet. Its the 35-135mm f4~5.6. Oldie, but still works great.

That pano is actually 6 pics stitched together in PS, and then white balance corrected in LR. The colours are basically out of camera.
