Hi,
Olympus c4000Z
I must say I'm very pleased with my Olympus, it does the jobs I like it
to do but on one occasion .... picture this: performance of a heavy rock
group on a stage with lot's of light-spots, backgroud in very large red
and white stripes.
Well, whatever configuratuion I try I never get good pictures of them.
I know these spots are confusing lightmetering so I try to avoid them in
the vieuwfinder, and I know these guys are always moving ( they are
rockers !! ).
The exposures are always with too dark and there's a ver bad red collor
over them coming from the red colored fabric of the backgrouns I
presume). Not to mention the pics aren't sharp, not only because of the
moving of the objects ( very inspired rockers ) but also by the lack of
focus.
I now wonder if there are some settings I have to keep in mind to make
this kind of pictures. I just tought of using the "sports" settings ...
but I didn't try it till now.
All tips welcome.
Sorry for my bad English ...
