Another picture of my puppy. I tried some close ups tonight. I had to use flash (I know your not supposed to with pets) because If I didn't then it would come out underexposed. Does your apeture settings have effect your flash at all concerning over/under exposure?

Yes and no. Yes because the apeture is what controls the amount of light admitted to the shutter, no because your camera will have some sort of TTL (TTL=Through The Lens) flash-exposure system, whereby it will metre the flash output and the scene and control the exposure parameters.Quote:

Take a series of the same scene at different apetures with a constant shutter speed, and the same apeture with different shutter speeds (something moving is best for this). Do the same things with and without flash, and with lights in different places.
These will give you a really good idea of what the different settings will achieve with your particular camera.
Ok, Thank-you for the tips. :highfive:
Glad to help.Quote:

The problem with this particular shot though is that the flash is not hitting all of the dog's face or the back of his head evenly so the shadow parts of the photo are too dark. In this case you would need a reflector - or use the flash in a different way (bouncing perhaps) to get a more even lighting pattern.Quote:
