Posted March 16, 200519 yr comment_452604 I have no idea where to put this thread :confused Well I am going to a Marlins ST game at night and I want to bring my sisters camera but she says it doesnt work at night. I was thinking :headscratch with all those lights at a stadium would it be okay? My digital camera doesnt work at night but at a stadium it does. Do you think that low light film may help alittle? Thanks in Advance Link to comment https://www.marlinsbaseball.com/topic/26104-camera-help-please/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
March 16, 200519 yr comment_452605 Well, my digi cam has a night feature, but it sucks because you have to be real steady for it not to come out blurry. I have a landscape feature that is used more for subjects at a far distance. It takes the pictures real bright but if you're not careful, they come out blurry. Landscape uses no flash, btw. Examples: Here's a picture taken using Landscape without movement: Landscape w/ movement Night Try a low light film. If you want to bring your digi cam, test all the different settings, if you have any, and see which one works better.

March 16, 200519 yr comment_452614 Keep it steady. Balance it on a seat in front of you, get one of those mini-tripods or figure out a way to balance the sucker. Test out the different modes it has before you actually want to take a pic to make sure you get what you want when you need it.

March 16, 200519 yr comment_452617 Tip: Less light means more time for the shutter to be open. You also need film for low light conditions. The packaging usually has a candle or moon on it or something to that effect.

March 17, 200519 yr comment_452622 It is small, so I am not sure if the camera has it, but it should either be on the dial or on the digital display if your camera is not on automatic. However, it is better to keep the camera on automatic.

March 17, 200519 yr comment_452623 Use 800 film. And keep the camera as still as possible (a tripod helps). Link to comment https://www.marlinsbaseball.com/topic/26104-camera-help-please/?&do=findComment&comment=452623 Share on other sites More sharing options...
