Motion

One of the hardest things to try and compensate for and work around for me is motion. One way to try and combat it is to use a faster shutter speed, but sometimes it isn't worth it for what you give up in light. I took this shot in the evening. Light was just starting to fade, so I couldn't really go to too high a shutter speed. first one turned out like this.


This was at 1/25 shutter speed, ISO 100 and he was strumming, so I knew i had to do two things. First raise the shutter speed, then wait for a slower part of the song or a slight break in the playing to get a clearer shot. I also decided after I cranked the SS to 1/50 to bump the ISO up to 200. When I got the lull in the song this is what the final image turned out like.
