Yes, it's another practice photo of the opera! This one turned out with more clarity in their faces than in previous photos. This time, I used complete manual only, with a low ISO. Because German audiences are amazingly appreciative and clap forever, especially the one today at the Komische Oper, I had time to play around with the settings a bit. Taken from my 11 euro "limited visibility" seat behind a pole in the second to the last row, which is only 20 rows from the stage.
I agree with the others---you have it down! Manual is so much better. Now when I take a photo in auto, I spend an hour in processing. The other way around, I've got so much less to "fix"--What a lovely set too!
love this capture - it looks so much 3d. great lighting too.
btw. in studio i (almost) always use manual mode. full control what the camera is supposed to do - consistent results. i never use full automatic but often 'A' (i select aperture, camera sets timing...) ...but it all depends on situation - not one right answer to it
