My DSLR is a Canon 7D, but I have a Sony Cybershot P&S, and I use the camera on my iPhone a lot.

I adore my Canon SX 30 IS. I have always taken photos of nature and have been lucky with the lighting. I recently started taking pictures of my grandchildren and I am having difficulty with lighting. I have used the flash, and the result is a very bright child. I have tried turning on other lights and the result is a yellowish tint. Any suggestions?

That's a HIGH END point and shoot.....can you turn Auto off?

My dinosaur Sony point and shoot, allowed me to activate the red eye sensor with a half click, this sent some internal signal to the camera brain (for lack of technical verbage) and the lighting came out perfectly (with or with out flash) however, it was an ALL auto camera. Is this any help?

Somewhere in the menus you'll find a function that controls the intensity of the onboard flash...possibly cobble together a diffusing filter for the flash too - I've used a cigarette paper before. You also possibly need to play with your white balance in accordance to the type of artificial lighting you're using.



ETA. I'm a Nikon chap all the way. The consumer level Nikon glass is best IMO. In the pro glass market the brands are much of a muchness.

[QUOTE=Incubus;454927]snip - I've used a cigarette paper before.

I've used them too. Some of my best *work* was done when I was using them.


sorry, I couldn't resist

NO. I would not..... lol........

My question would be why do you want a DSLR? I sold more photos with my point and shoot, just by being in the right place right time than my very expensive set up!
