Sounds like your over bright pictures may be caused by reflected light from the ocean. Too bad you or someone else were not also shooting with a different camera. Changing the EV is a good temporary solution. If this continues on overcast days or inland, you will need to change the camera settings. You might also try using a filter on the lense.
2. I use C continuous autofocus with 9 pt Dynamic area with no problems. My wife used 21 pt and often gets back focusing. I set the AF-area selector to single spot, metering selector to Dynamic, and use the AF-ON button to lock focus. "You get what you see thru the viewfinder". |
Hi Roger,
many thanks for your advice.
The pictures where not as bad but I think they where, sometimes, .. just a litte bit overexposed ... but that's only my feeling.
I will keep trying and changing my settings where possible.
Normaly I dont want to shoot about ISO 200 (if possible) ..
Well, thanks again and will keep trying ;-)
Thanks to you,
Claudia
