The stage was very dark, so shot at ISO 1600 and 2500, hand-held, mid-way back in the auditorium . . . let's think of these as more "impressionistic" than realistic . . . still good fun!!
I'll be back to shooting the watches soon, and appreciate the great advice!!

: Looking good Jeff!
: Just use auto, infinity for real depth of field and Macro when
: being creative. 60mm Macro is a brilliant lens, I use it...
: don't get too close... you don't need to... set size at over
: 2000k and quality to best below RAW. I used to use AC/DC for pic
: sizing but over teh years even though I am good with Photoshop I
: found that the Nikon Photo Studio software is very good. Adobe
: best for setting colours if a bit off..... Of course use tripod
: and auto timer which will give you the best results as you will
: know... one lst tip set the focus to centre point.
: At the moment it is on full frame that is why you got full focus on
: bottom part of case and the dial is slightly out on 2nd pic. I
: agree with you re cameras... I used a Coolpix for probably 5,000
: pics and it was amazing value for money but I have found that my
: Nikon D50 is probably the single best value for money thing I
: have ever... ever spent money on....
: I just took this pic... in my garden... on a tripod, auto-infinity,
: no flash (never use it)
: Good luck with it... any probs let me know but check out the Nikon
: software it really is very good..
: Regards
