Hey everyone.
I'm still very new so bear with me. I'm going to a big tattoo festival tomorrow at a convention center (indoor). I'll be walking around all day taking shots at random. So I'm hoping you can help me configure my camera's settings as optimally as possible. Here is what I'm taking:
Canon t4i
Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM
Canon 430-EX II Speedlite
As usual I'm (probably needlessly) obsessing over every little setting so if someone with more knowledge than me can answer these questions based on all of the above and your most educated opinion, I would seriously appreciate it
Mode: I'm thinking manual won't work because too much will change from one area of the venue to another so maybe Av?
Flash: Should I just leave it on full ETTL/Auto? Not use it at all?
White balance: Auto or should I use the fluorescent light setting?
ISO: Always gets me. Auto or should I leave it at 100?
Metering: Evaluative?
These few things will give me a good start. Thanks in advance!
