Hi All,
I've spent the last few days trying to work on my pics, I read the article from Gerry Rhoades and even read (most) of the users manual as he suggested.
Here's where my setting landed based on my trial/error and reading:
I am using a photo tent and have 2 100 watt lights. Aperture is at 4.0 with shutter speed of 1/400. I used the metered white balance setting and also used my flash on low to try and get a nice shine line - as the article suggested. Camera is in macro mode.
I'm trying to attach my photos instead of posting in the text area, hopefully this is how you do them as thumbnails...
My main problem is I don't seem to be getting great focus on these pics. I edit them with Photo Shop and use the feature to remove digital camera noise - this is the result.
Any idea how to get these to come out a bit better? They don't seem to have quite the "crispness" I'm looking for.
Thanks!
