Fed Up!

[breezer]

God im so annoyed :censor: Iv gota whole bunch of neons, and my digital camera is a pile of flamin poo in the dark! Dont say use flash, coz guess what, it totally blocks out the neon and lux normal!!

Anyone ne recommendations for a camera that isnt too expensive, perhaps on eBay?

[dannyb999]

go for the sony cybershot U-30, top little compact camera, 2 megapixel and the pictures are brilliant, and the night photos are excellent!!

idea for nights out too where u dont want to have to carry a big camera everywhere!

Dont use the flash..

Make sure the shutter speed is quick or/and put it on a tripod.

[breezer]

Hmmm! I mentioned cheap.......right?

[vmail]

normal digi cam make sure the object is 1-1.2metres away, with neons ite 2metres

[breezer]

iv tried that v

[cokg2]

personally i would have the shutter on slow

keeps it open for longer allowing the low light to come in

its what i use when taking photos of lunar eclipses etc

yes i am a photographer b4 u start hounding me

[Robie]

But im sure the problem would be his hand shaking and therefore the colours kinda running as it takes longer for the camera to take the picture and moves more???

[breezer]

Nah nah!m Its totally crap!!!!

I took pix at around 9ish

and it was still quite light but startin to get dark, and the pix r pitch black wit red and blue glows and it looks crap!!! you cant see anything else but the glows!

[cokg2]

of course, but the easy way around that is to sit the camera on a solid surface. wall, table, some one elses car bonnet

use a tripod if available

[breezer]

I trhink its jus coz my cams crap!! Coz did uz c the pix that dude took of all the blue lights on in his car, that was amazin!!! well, lets say his was 100% clear

mines around 1%

thats how bad it is, lyin it on flat service, or usin a tripod wnt make that much difference. The cams 1.3megapixels. goodmans GDC 1308 TFT
