Hey,
I need some help with taking wakeboarding pics. Overall I'm so confused with the settings and the best shooting mode to use. I can't seem to get my focus right and how do I prevent blowouts with the water? I have a Nikon D70 with an older Tameron lens 70-300 lowest f/stop 4.
As far as settings, I've been using auto b/c I can't figure out where I want my aparture and shutter speed. I want a faster shutter speed, and a lower apature? What would be the best mode to start learning and fine tuning my pics. And to prevent blowouts?
For focusing, I was told to zoom all the way in and focus on the person, then switch it to manual instead of AF. The rope stays at a constant length and I don't need to refocus on the person. Is this correct?
We have a big event this weekend and I'd like to get some good pics w/o messing up. Any help is greatly appreciated.
