thanks alot! but do u have anyway where i can take night picture (human) with the shutter speed/aperture being low and not have blur picture since human tends to move alot?

Someone just asked this two posts comments down! Just follow the night tutorial at dslrtips . com but force your flash to fire. The flash will illuminate the person and any movement will be mostly invisible - but ask them to stay as still as possible anyway!

but is there anyway doing so without having to use the flash? it tends to create shadow which irritates me alot.

If you want to avoid the flash and a slow shutter speed, but still record night lights, then your only hope is to use the maximum ISO with the lens aperture at its smallest f-number. If you have any more Qs, feel free to post in the dslrtips section of the cameralabs . com forums...

Thanks for al the quality vids. I've recently bought a Canon 450D ad was starting to get a little overwhelmed with the different settings.

is there any tips when trying to get a picture with a human subject while trying to get a good exposure of the background. Is it going to be a problem since its hard to get the person completely still.
