Originally posted by MSL Here are a couple of quick and dirty modifications. You may not like either of them. Both have lowered highlights, the second one has less saturation. They are "dirty" tweaks because everything I did was applied across the entire image, whereas you probably want to selectively lower some of the highlights on the brides face. Note there will be a bit of loss in overall quality because I saved as somewhat lower quality JPG to save a bit of space.
Awesome. Very useful. Thanks!
Originally posted by asp1880 The metering still works in M mode, it controls the +/- scale in the viewfinder and nothing else. That scale shows you how your manually chosen exposure compares to the meter.
I just noticed the bar after u mentioned this. Can you explain to me how this scale works? I tried playing with different settings but it always shows about 2-3 bars on the negative side. Do I need that scale to be on 0?
Thanks for helping me find the flash compensation menu. So, if I had to redo this shot, what settings would you have chosen in terms of exposure compensation and flash compensation? Should I change these settings for every shoot I do?
Again, sorry for the noob question
