Hello everyone. I was told by someone in another forum that I may get some help here. Let me introduce myself briefly. My name is Misty and I have been shooting for about a year now. I have learned a lot, but still have a whole lot more to learn.
My most current problem is with grain. I currently purchased the FA 50mm 1.4, and haven't been able to shoot with it without getting grain. Now I did some experimenting and found that when I shoot with my strobes, I'm okay. Shooting in low light situations is my problem. I bought this lens JUST to be able to shoot in low light, and it hasn't done the job I expected of it.
Also, I am getting purple crosses on my photos. I have NEVER had this happen before. Anyone know what's going on?
I have been told by some on another forum that they think I am underexposed, and the fact that I didn't CWB is a problem. Now, I don't understand how I can better expose when I was already @ f1.7. The person that made that comment didn't explain to me how I can compensate for the 2 stop underexposure. As I said, I have a lot to learn, so I just really don't understand this.
I know this is the welcome section, but I sure hope someone will help me anyway.
Thank you everyone!
Oh, btw, no flash. I am shooting some place TODAY that is low light and doesn't allow a flash. That is what I bought this lens for. I have had it for a few days now, and still can't figure out how to get rid of the grain.
