Question about your approach here (and I'm only asking because I have a lot to learn) - could you help me understand the reasoning behind the really faster shutter speed while using ISO 400? Again - I'm still very much in the learning stage. I know next to nothing about light metering, and I'm just curious how the picture changes with the higher ISO and super fast shutter speed. vs an ISO of 100 and a slower shutter speed.
A shutter speed of 1/200s really isn't what most would describe as super fast. I normally shoot at between 1/60s and 1/125s. However, going with a faster shutter speed will
pretty much guarantee better color rendition and retention. Going with a higher ISO as 400 will assure me that an adequate amount of light will be present in order to properly
expose the subject/s. This place where I mostly shoot presents quite a challenge for proper exposure in that they have glass ceilings that allow for harsh sunlight along with
fluorescent lighting, which again creates quite a challenge. A slower shutter speed as you suggest, would have resulted in a seriously overexposed image. The slower the
shutter speed, the more light enters your gear. Hope this helps. Thanks a million for your comment and question.
