sujoy: flash power is controlled by f stop not the shutter speed.

Use the manual focus mode. and pre focus on the plane where the drop falls. check You tube videos for the this type of setup.

ooh really f-stop effects flash....I never knew that...I will check that practically

I am already doing manual mode and prefocussing

when do we use flash compensation??

 

[toofan]

Flash compensation is when you don't want to change the f-stop and need to do a little adjustments quickly and without changing the other settings.

Thanks Sujoy and Abhinav for the feedback.

guys 1 question keep on comming in my mind...Is 18-55mm a zoom lens or its called something else??
Coz what I have seen 18mm is very wide but its far away from normal eye view and zooming to 55mm just make it like 1:1 or what we actually see.

zoom means making a far away object near I suppose

so a 18-200mm or 18-105 are actually zoom lens??

am I messing up

 

[INS-ANI]

Thanks sujoyp

 

[rhitwick]

Why can't I see Toofan's photos ?

 

[toofan]

Is flick blocked in your browser ritwik.

Anything that has a zoom ling and varied focal lengths in a same lens are called zooms.

10-22 is also a zoom lens.

Recently I had shot some images at 2x Magnification. Please critique for improvements. Thanks
