Maybe it’s just my eyes, but I don’t think so. I have been taking senior portraits with my kids and many shots seem soft. I was blaming the dark conditions of the forest we did a while back. Also some shots I use a 50 mm 1.8 without IS. This morning we took some in decent light. Used the canon 80D and both the 50 mm prime and 18-135 w/IS. No tripod. Still seem soft. I have used tripod, but never kept track of which were with it or without it. I used this camera all summer with no issues, but mostly with the 100-400. Maybe I need to turn on AI Servo to keep the girls in focus? Lol.
The woods shot is ISO 250 f5 1/125 0ev 64mm
The field is ISO 100 f5 0ev 1/320 56 mm
both I used aperature priority. Guess I should have tried f8 or so. I was trying for the blurred back ground they wanted.
Should I use manual to get higher shutter speed? I want ISO to stay low.
any tips? Tomorrow I will try different cameras and tripod. But any ideas on settings will help the process. I am running out of time! And she is running out of patience.
I included a recent photo with same camera and lens and focused on the bridge, but the lighting wasn’t good. I think the focus is ok.
Thank you!
