Photography tips: The AV output is neat for taking self portraits.
Photo setup: I used the camera in manual mode with my external flash (both camera and flash were on tripods). I expermented with f/stops until I got to the largest f/stop that would provide adequate lighting with the flash (f/5.6). I used the AV cable to hook the camera up to my TV set so I could properly frame the picture while laying on the ground. Then I turned on the remote mode and used the RM-1 to remotely zoom in/out so I was framed properly and then to trigger the picture. FWIW, I discovered that when I was laying down on the ground I was too far away to trigger the camera, and had to sit up, trigger the camera and lay back down within the 3 seconds before the camera took the picture. Having review mode on, I was able to see what the shot looked like in the TV after it was taken. |
