[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Geoff, The photo was made as part of a brief evaluation of my ability to manually focus a legacy lens without benefit of a "chipped" lens adapter. The ISO was 800 and the shutter speed was 1/30. The light source was a single incandescent fixture in an entry hallway. While the capture was in RAW, so I could improve it somewhat, I made no concious effort to make it technically perfect. It served its purpose, and I filed it away. Hell, the noise, which I can't see, probably improved my appearance. Let it go.
