Shooting in manual with a Sony A58

How do you know that you have a correct exposure when shooting in manual on a Sony a58?

When you use the M (manual) mode, at the bottom of the screen or the viewfinder, it will appear the selected speen to shutter and the opening on the left, ISO selected on the right and a scale at the Center. This scale will show how far the exposure is that the camera would choose. You can ignore it and take the picture, or you can set the shutter speed, Aperture, and/or ISO until the scale indicates that the image is properly exposed.

  • Slow shooting in manual mode.

    Hello world

    I noticed that on the set of continuous, manual shoots at only half the speed of the sport mode on my 1100D (Rebel T3). I disabled all the features of treatment such as the correction of iso noise high and optimizer of lighting, etc..  I can't find anything in the manual to this topic or if im wondering if it is possible to reach the full speed of shooting in manual or weather it's just a feature of the camera.

    EDIT: I turn also in jpeg and don't help change quality.

    When you are in manual, you using the same focus and development of mode, the way of "sport"?  I'm pretty sure tha the T3 uses all points of focus when you put it in the modes "basic", which should include the "sport" mode  Also, I am certain that the 'sport' mode does not use the 'One Shot Focus'

    If you only use the center point, your camera might be little slower to lock focus, compared to when it makes use of all the points of discussion.  Take a photo in 'sport' mode and playback of shooting with all the shooting information displayed, do note the focus mode setting and the focus adjustment.  Carefully compare the settings of the sport mode for what you have set when you use the manual mode.

  • Use Camera RAW with the Sony Nex-3

    Hey guys!

    I want to get more details on my photos.

    I'm using Adobe Photoshop CS5

    Sony NEX - 3 camera Compact (listed in the camera raw compatibility list)

    First, I changed the photo cameras to jpg in RAW format and made some photos.

    At home I tried to open the files with Camera Raw. Does not work. The sony camera recorded images as ARW file.

    So I downloaded Adobe DNG Converter. I've converted the ARW in a RAW file and opened it with camera raw.

    So far so good! I opened the FIRST photo with Photoshop. Just to test with 8 & 16-bit also. My camera supports 16-bit?

    I compared the RAW file with the jpg created again.

    Normally the quality of the raw file should be much better than the jpg compressed, I think.

    I took a quick glance at some other pictures of jpg (I shot in JPG Mode) and compared with the FIRST Images (RAW Mode).

    I have seen absolutely no difference between RAW and JPG.

    I also tried an exact correction of the tonal value at the two images.

    Even with the other image corrections. More details, noise, sharpness... even.

    With the Sony NEX-3 there was also a program included RAW that opens the ARW files.

    I do not see too many differences between RAW and jpg here.

    What I a m d INGO evil ?

    I must say that I am a beginner camera's gross. I tried for the first time. I thought it would be easier!

    The screenshot below see you an image on the left and a 16-bit DNG on the right.

    I have not found any difference!

    I would greatly appreciate your help and some good advice.

    Best regards Andi

    You have a lot of questions, and you will get countless different answers.

    Firstly, raw images are generally images 12 or 14 bits.  Your camera doesn't have to support that, because it's one of the benefits of shooting in raw.  Camera Raw opens the images in a 16-bit workspace.  Due to the additional bits and other factors as well, you're able to do a lot more with images.  If you have deep and strong or extremely brilliant shadows highlights overexposed, you will find that you can recover a lot more detail in these troubled when areas you work with raw image data.  The fact is that if you have perfectly exposed image and you're not overexposed areas or mitigate the shadows, it will be difficult to see the difference.

    If you really are not a bad thing.  You must do some experiments more and some studies to better understand yourself the advantage for the filming of raw images.  If you're like most people who contribute here, once you realize you has all the benefits of shooting raw images, you will probably stop shooting JPEG in total.

  • intend to buy second-hand minolta 70-200mm for sony A58

    I plan to buy opportunity Minolta 70-200mm lens for my Sony A58.how can I buy it... What are all the factors consider to buy a lens... what purchases online (IE amazon.com) are suitable for me... pls tell what are the procedure to buy...

    Probably the best source for used lenses in the United States is KEH. They specialize in used gear and thus have a better choice than conventional retailers who sell used gear as an offshoot of their main activity. Amazon and eBay are also good choices, but you must be more careful with them.

    Purchase of a used lens is not as full of dangers, as many people believe, but there are some things you should pay attention to.

    1. Clean the lens, if it isn't already and look closely at the optics at both ends. There should not be any misalignment of the indicidual (indication of damage) lenses, and should not be cracked or engraving on any of the lenses (indication of damage of mushroom).
    2. The aperture blades should all be present, anf, they must be clean and dull. If one of the blades is brilliant, the lubricant turned to sticky goo (an indication that the lens has been exposed to high temperatures) which will slow down or even adversely affect their operation.
    3. Make sure that the zoom and setting rings to the point (and ring opening, if she a) work smoothly through their full range.
    4. Check that the lens perfectly fits your camera.
    5. Check that the lens autofocuses quickly, quietly (but not necessarily in silent mode) and invariably, when alternating between close and distant subjects.
    6. Take a few pictures with very large openings (numerically small numbers) and some with very small apertures (numerically large numbers) and make sure that they are all properly exposed. (If photos taken with very small openings are brighter than they should be, the aperture blades could be sticky, as I mentioned in #2.)

    If you see something that doesn't look good, it box, send it and make sure you get a refund.

    A great resource when looking for used lenses is Dyxum.com.

    One thing you must remember, when looking at the Minolta lenses used, is that digital image sensors are brilliant, much more that of 35mm film, which can cause the light to reflect back light to the lens. Objectives for the film cameras don't have the coatings on the rear lens elements that prevent the light to reflect to the probe, as objectives for digital cameras. This can produce ghosts and flare with compositions that are very bright images.

    Good luck. There are countless lenses that perform well on the body of Sony A-Mount and can be made for a fraction of what the new lenses sell for, and there are countless lenses that are not yet available of the current offerings of Sony.

  • Difficulty in getting the updates manually with Windows 7

    I'm having a problem with getting the updates manually with my windows 7 upgrade from vista. I tried all the solutions provided and seem to be chasing a 8007000 error. A little help please.

    KB3125574 is not available as via Windows Update.

    As to not install updates - more correct option, except KB3161608. The most important - important is always recommended. :)

    Do KB3020369 and KB3161608 yesterday made the difference today.  Audit brought into the important updates (security those more Windows Defender and malware tool;) I disabled the "recommended updates" option) in a little less than five minutes. Throughout, all done. Don't bother with KB3125574, I will keep this one in mind for any future reference. The other two (made in that order) are a must.

  • What I have to buy a new version of photoshop, so that he will take in charge the raw files from my Sony A58? Camera Raw will not open my files. Help!

    I have thus upgraded to a Sony A58 camera and did a photoshoot. When I downloaded my files Adobe Bridge, just showed me the file type icon and wouldn't listen to samples. So I sent them to photoshop where I got the error message "Could not complete your request because the file appears to be a model of camera that is not taken in charge by the installed Version of Camera Raw." I also read up here in the forum that CS5 only upgrades Camera Raw plugins to date. I need at least 7.4 to open files. So this means that I have to buy a new version of photoshop to work on these files? Or is there a cheaper solution? Please help, it's my income and I can't be delayed too long on these images to give a customer.

    If you have CS5, there goes that Adobe Camera Raw 6.7 and you need to 7.4.

    There is a free way out. Convert the raws in DNG format to be able to open them in 6.7

    First download and install the DNG Converter.

    Hi Joas,

    Sony A7R II files are not supported in Lightroom 5.

    You need at least version 6.1.1 or CC2015.1.1 to access these files: supported by Adobe Camera Raw devices

    You can upgrade your program of Lightroom or Adobe DNG Converter allows you to convert raw files to DNG and import them into Lightroom.
