Waterdrop drop shots

Very nice

Would you mind posting your camera details? (lens,f/stop,ISO and shutter speed)

Quote from Blunkka

Setup:

Micro-Nikkor 60mm, 1/250 (max sync speed), varying between f20-f30, ISO 100

External flash with an A4 paper strapped with a rubberband around it to diffuse the light

I'm amazed you could get such fast speeds with ISO100

And great idea with the flash, I might try that sometime

really nice pictures

What? He is using an external flash, and when doing so, you always put it at ISO 100 because of the available light coming from the flash...

Have you actually tried photographing water droplets in mid-air? Even with a lot of available light you need a very quick shutter timer.

Yes, I know. But that has nothing to do with an ISO, especially when using more than available light.

Classic, but good! Nice stuff : )

DVS you mistaked ISO for shutterspeed

Not really, faster shutter speed = less light = higher iso or aperture required.

yes but higher ISO does not control speed like u stated is all. I know you know this, heh. The comment just sounded like ISO controls shutter speed.

And my point was that the ISO should always be put to 100 when using external flash.
