Lessons from the Zoo

December 14, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

Lesson 1:  Be sure and save you WP draft on your Iphone before leaving WP  (Maybe I went to music in the middle to change albums, who know… but I lost the entire blog I wrote.)

Lesson 2: Rainy days are the best times to go to Zoo’s.  That’s where I went on Saturday.  On a rare San Diego rainy day.  The crowds were gone, the animals were active, and the photos were plentiful.

Lesson 3: Better use a higher ISO if the light is lower than normal and you want to use a long lens.  The increase in speed (and steady shots) is worth the small amount of noise.

Lesson 4: DxO Pro as a Raw processor, is the way to go if you have some noise.  It took 3 hours for DxO to run… way slow.  But the results were worth it.  There was a real reduction in noise, with no loss in sharpness.
