Thanks, Bob. Five years, even, has made a huge difference, I think. I had been brought along on this assignment by a woman who took one of my classes... she was supposed to shoot the event, but wanted some coaching. (She has been a film photographer for 18 years, and recently acquired her brother's old Nikon D200, but that's another story...) Anywho, the D200 maxes out at 3200 ISO, which made it all but impossible for her to get a good exposure. On the other hand, she was happy to see what she got when we pushed the images a bit in post.. after all, 800 ISO had been her previous max. :) -c > Regards, Bob S. > > On Tue, Nov 15, 2011 at 12:12 PM, Christine Nielsen <[email protected]> > wrote: >> My k-5 got its first real low-light workout last night.
