My daughter - my reluctant subject

[sury]

One of the first shots with 24-70. My daughter knew that I was like kid in candy store and
rather reluctantly or more like indulgently posed for the shot. I guess I was interrupting her chat on the laptop.

This is a crop. I had my iso on auto with 200-1600 range, and did not realize this is a iso1000 image. You can see some
noise on her neck with light reflected from her laptop (bluish light).

Pretty good for ISO 1000! And she doesn't look too disgruntled to be photographed - she has a lovely smile

Pat,
Thank you. I will let her know about the smile. May be that would "encourage" her to
model for me more. .

With best regards,

That's a really nice portrait shot Sury

Good photo of your daughter! Isn't it part of your job to occasionally annoy your children?

I am glad you are having the chance to enjoy using your new lens.

A very kind face with a very positive aura.
Sury, try to expose a bit to the right (+0.6 or so).

[sury]

Thank you Andy, Henry and Doc. She sure gets her looks from Mom, not Dad.
Is the image under exposed Doc? Since the camera was on P mode,
I am curious to know if it is underexposed and if so, is it because of the lens.

With best regards,
Sury

I have noticed that Sony cameras need a bit of overexposure. Anyway try to bracket your shots for a while to see the performance of your camera and pick the right choice.

Aah!!! thank you. I usually do manual and what I get is I attribute to my error in judgment.
With these lenses, I have been doing more P mode shooting to get a feel for them. I will
keep that in mind when in P/A/S mode.

With best regards,
Sury
