Newbie needs tips on taking good nightshots
I have a basic 3 mp digicam (SD200 or IXUS 30). When I take pictures
of the skyline at night, it's blurry and sometimes it has fuzzy dots. After reading the manual, I understand I have 3 choices in fixing my problem. Turn on the 'long shutter' option, but the manual states that it would add noise to the picture. The next option is the ISO speed. I understand that the higher the ISO speed, the more image noise it creates. The third option is 'exposure compensation', I'm not sure if this applies. I think I would need a tripod for night shots don't I? Then turn on the 'long shutter' mode then move the ISO speed to the slowest speed as possible. Is this all I could do for now? Thanks for the help. |
