Hello, i am new at this forum as i have liked what i've seen in here
Well, i have bought a 50mm 1.8 AF-S some time ago and i have some questions about taking portrait pictures, as i come from the landscape world.
My camera, Nikon D40X (yeah, not a pro one... ) has only 3 focus points. So when i want to take a shot of a face i usually choose one focusing at one of their eyes and then i move a bit the camera to get the frame i like.
Ok, but you know, i like to take it with 1.4 of aperture and a simple hand move can make their eyes to be unfocused.
What should i do?
Take the shoot in manual mode? If i do like it, how do i know that their eyes are well focused?
I am sure this can be some stupid questions but well, if you could help me with them...
Thanks.
