Hi,
Disclaimer: I am a newbie with a new camera and a realize I have lots to learn. In fact, I am attending a two day Nikon school this weekend, which I believe will be a tremendous help.
As some of you know, I shoot mainly horses in motion and at this time of year it's usually in an indoor arena with floursecent and/or tungsten lighting. I do not use a flash (although I could if I wanted to, I just choose not to). I use a Nikkor f/2.8 80-200mm - an amazing lens for low light and fast action. I also use an expodisc to check and recheck my WB in the arena prior to shooting.
I cannot find a consistent setting for my camera and leaving it there. I'm having issues with the Manual Mode and I'm looking forward to someone helping me this weekend. Neither her nor there, I need to make sure shutter speed and ISO settings are all working together to get the least amount of noise as possible. I shoot in L Fine RAW - my camera body is a Nikon D700.
I can't post photos from my laptop (no idea why) but when I get to my desktop I could add a really noisy photo - maybe for some suggestions? I'm frustrated but I know some of that is simply lack of knowledge.
So I guess I am just looking for someone to talk noise with me - if you are out there.
Thanks!
