What is the best aperture and shutter-speed to get bedroom pictures like in pornography/glamour modelling? Somebody kindly answered me before but I lost the message. I have two 500w tungsten lights but no reflectors--are these necessary? I was told also to use blue filters for these types of light, but all my experiments (for skin-tone on bed) are bad and still look like polaroids. Please someine set me right. Thanks

I find it funny how similarly most British people finish their phrases. Like at the end of each sentence. Feels like I'm watching BBC news anchor haha. Very good tutorial btw, thank you.

This is true and has been discussed in other posts below and on the dslrtips . com webpage for this tutorial. You can increase the f-number for a bigger depth of field, but it will subsequently need a longer exposure - and if it goes beyond 30 seconds, most DSLRs will need an optional cable release.

Thanks! Do please send them to my site dslrtips . com though!

Thanks! You're actually ignoring the metering here because you're shooting in manual and choosing the result which looks best to you...

Hi Gordon, just curious on the subject of Aperture. While the lowest F number will let in the most light, if taking a landscape will you loose alot of sharp focus on objects in the shot? thanks.

Good stuff - I'll pass this along to all my newsletter subscribers.

Nice tips & tricks how to get a decent image quality during the night. How about the metering do I need to keep using the evaluative metering ?

If you have a tripod then I'd recommend using a low ISO and a long shutter speed for the best quality - just what I said in the video! There's more info at dslrtips . com.

i have a question coz im still a newbie in photography. do you recommend higher iso's in night photography and in low light situations? coz i often get blurry or grainy photos when i turn the ISO up. cheers:)
