No ISO 100?

I just spend the last hour trying to figure out why my camera was not able to go to ISO 100 or 6400.. I tried all that I could figure out, nothing helped. It came to a point where I was putting on other lenses to see if there was a malfunction in the hardware. I reset the camera and that did not help either.

The thing that worried me the most was that I yesterday shot pictures at ISO 100, this I can see in the meta data on the files, and when I came home I put the camera down on my table and did not use it further. Hmm…

After some figiding around I remembered that I just before putting the camera down was messing around in some sub menu. Found a “Highlight tone priority” control. I put it in enable thinking that you should always prioritize tones. The tone priority also rendered my flash unable to control the light that made me burn out all the images. Lucky enough I was doing a photo shoot with my cup of tea at the time.

The picture above is the test shot I ended up with after figuring it all out. I hope i’ll be ready with the COP15 pictures for my site in the next few weeks. Please all stand by for them they are worth the wait.

The new year has started

Looks like the new year came in the best possible way. This year I had the joy of spending it with some of the best people around me. We had the best party ever and some great food that I had the pleasure of preparing for them.

I’m looking forward to a great year that I’m sure will bring lots of new adventures to my life. My brother and his wife are looking forward to a family expansion and with my father illness that have come to and end, already there is a lot to start out with.

I’m looking forward to posting lots of beautiful pictures, getting better at what  I love doing the most, and hopefully get on that road trip that was planned for 2009 but never happened.

Above is me on my couch looking at the first picture that I got printed, and just my luck it was a front page.
