Settings for Canon Rebel XT

I have a Canon Rebel XT with a Canon EF - 5 18-55mm lens, and I need help on how to configure the camera for taking quality photos of small objects for resale on the internet.  I have a light box and 2 lights tungston, but I'm having a hard time getting a clear image with a white background.  Right now I'm taking pictures of pens to ball. Any help would be really appreciated.  Thank you

If you're having trouble getting sharp images, you might have problems DOF or depth of field, which describes the distance range of the camera subjects are made the point clear.  Take photos of 'products', such as pens, begins to cross the line in macro photography, which is the art of photographing the very small.

Remember, smaller apertures will give you a greater DOF, but may require more light.  You will get sharper photos with the lowest ISO setting, which may also require more light.  Finally, it's good to take a long exposure of stationary objects.  Your camera must be able to do it for you in Av mode, constant aperture, with ISO set to 100.

If you have a part of the photo album must be stretched forward if you are using a tripod, but if you need help editing / cutting / filling a canvas etc is a great & very depends on the software you own or need to buy.

  • Export best settings for Canon XF100 to SD

    Hi guys, my first post - please be gentle!

    Recently, I came across from FCP to Premiere Pro CS6. I also acquired a camera Canon XF100 (the output being MXF files) and were shooting to test HD sequences which is 1920 x 1080. However, the project that I will be shooting must be exported as a PAL SD. MOV file, as it should be used for broadcasting by a non-Community HD station.

    I tried several different sequences and export of settings to create the SD card. MOV file, but in almost all of them I keep blurring the lines on the screen. I now do not know if I should shooting in SD or HD... I thought I could shoot in HD for a better image before rendering on a permanent export of SD. (I used to do in FCP)

    Please excuse my inexperience... but I'm pulling my hair out and I had little first left... If someone could help with the sequence and export of settings, I would be grateful!

    Thanks, Luke.

    PAL is 25 frames per second, so it reduces auto. You can put your images in a sequence of pal dv and see how it will work.

  • Best settings for Canon HFS21

    Steve's book is excellent and has a very informative, but I don't know yet. If possible, I want to choose a combination, if possible, and stay with her, one that works very well for all high quality with my HFS21 projects that wind up on DVD and youtube so projects. What is the best combination? Wouldn't be HD AVCHD 1080 30 and pull with 60i or?

    Another thing that I find confusing is that youtube seems to prefer not interlaced. I am not particularf I shoot in 24f, I believe that it is only available on this unit p frame rate, and the possibilities on Elements 9 are 30.

    30 images produced 60i interlaced, nicholas, then Yes, you must use the AVCHD 1920 x 1080 stereo.

    And you should only shoot FXP or MXP mode if you plan to edit in Premiere Elements.

    You can buy a USB memory card reader very little expense. TO
    Amazon.com, they begin to 1.46 USD.

    I always prefer using such a reader, rather than connect the camera.
    The drive uses no battery in the camera and it's quick and easy to
    use.

    I have two of these drives. An I keep on my desk, one in my
    Bag for laptop to use when traveling.

  • Canon Rebel SL1 do not download Images for Macbook Air

    My Canon Rebel SL1 won't download pictures on my Macbook Air. I downloaded the pictures happens countless times, but recently, whenever I connect my camera to my computer the following:

    iPhoto opens and it shows that my device is recognized and import the button is grayed out. The images never appear on the screen, and I am not able to do something with my photos. I have a Macbook Air, so I don't have a disk drive. I don't have a card reader.

    Please help me with this.

    Thank you

    -Hayley

    Get a card reader - they sold abut $10 - and see if that helps. Or connect to another computer - a friend even. See if that helps.

    If it is not: what version of iPhoto? What version of the operating system?

  • What Flash Speedlite will work with my Canon Rebel EOS T3 1100 D?

    Hi, I'm new to the era of digital and older than 55 years.  My husband bought me a Canon Rebel EOS T3 1100 D in July.   (I fought the "technological" upgrade until my old film camera Canon quit on me).  I took pictures since 1966, so I'm not new to photograph, just for our technological advances.

    I would be very grateful if someone could help me with which Flash Speedlite will work with my Canon Rebel T3 D 1100 camera specific.

    I thank very you much for your time.

    I just got my 430EX II that I bought for use with my Rebel T2i. The main reason I bought the Canon product was... using Canon products, I have never had a failure or a bad experience of 60 years. I use the LL 430EX for a few days and I'm very happy with the results. Much, much better than the built-in flash. It is on sale now with free shipping of Fed X. It is hard to beat.

    Good luck with your new camera.

  • Using a Canon Rebel T3 to record video

    So I bought a Canon Rebel T3 like 5 years ago and never really used. I was think to post video of music or video for YouTube and myself.

    What all do I need (in addition to skills)

    What of the hardware and software required?

    I saw a YouTube video, saying: you need a lens wide angle (he said they were pretty good markets)

    Do I need software or even Canon for this load on my PC?

    You will probably need editing at one point software, but you are good enough to go right now. What lens do you have? the 18-55 kit lens is probably wide enough until proof to the contrary.

  • Canon Rebel T3 busy

    I have a Canon Rebel T3 two years, with the two kit objectives accompanying.  Suddenly today, after I take one or two shots in a row he said busy for a second or two and continues to delay the shooting, saying busy.  The battery said full, but I put in a full in all cases.  The card is class 10, 32 gb San disk Ultra.  Online, I saw someone advised to try a different lens, and it's the same problem with either lens.  He also said wipe contacts of the lens with a soft cloth, I did.  This is what lends on manual, sunny day, no unusual conditions.

    Is there any other problems and REMEDIES I can do?  I saw a reference to replace the main Board - gee, don't want to go there!

    Thank you!

    Do you too low level format? You need to do it sometimes.

  • How can I activate the infrared remote on my Canon Rebel T5 trigger

    My awesome wife bought me a starter kit complete with a Canon Rebel T5 (not a T5i) for my birthday... I'm so happy! In the starter kit is an infrared remote that looks like this.

    It is said that I just need to set my camera to accept a remote trigger in order to use this remote control. But I can't for the life of me find! I tried searching google but whenever I type anything remotely (no pun intended) with Canon Rebel, I get pages and pages of places to buy an and not a lot of information on how to use one.

    Thanks for your time!

    Well Yes, no IR sorry
