So @miseria challenged me to trying out the in camera HDR mode..... I found the relevant pages in the manual and had a bit of a read - must admit there were bits where I was *huh?* The weather had been grey and dull so I waited to give it a try. While waiting for the ferry heading into the city I thought "s#it get pushed! So I go to menu and find the HDR - hmmm - can't do with current camera settings - remembered you couldn't do RAW and remembered with multiple exposure you couldn't use live view - fixed that - still a no go hahaha - googled on my phone and also needed to be M A or S settings - fixed that - yay! I can now go to HDR mode. I could remember nothing of what I read about other things to do or change so it was HDR mode series of images strength on AUTO.
Now we all know I don't cart around a tripod - and I am now on the ferry - which - surprisingly - moves hahaha - but what the heck let's give it a go!
Need a tripod much - or at least not be on a ferry swinging out of the wharf!
Yikes, my eyes too. HDR's not too tough. Use Aperture Priority (very important), set HDR setting on your camera to +2, 0 and -2 if possible, hold camera still (not on a ferry!!) and push shutter button. Camera will do the rest. Processing simple in LR and/or PS, if if you get into HDR Photomatix Pro or Aurora. Yeah, probably best with a tripod but I can never be bothered so just use hand-held.
@golftragic ah maybe I have glanced past that - thanks - will check my manual - there was talk of other things that went in one eye and out the other hahhahahaha
This is a fun shot - not what you wanted but a fun shot none the less! i like the surprise surreal look to it - it made me look twice which I do like.
So glad you are having fun with your new toy!
it just looks 3D to me - my eyes must be already shot lol
So glad you are having fun with your new toy!
