Photography Question

[Satans_Chariot]

Anyone know what I should set my appeture to in order to get some shots of all the damn tuna swimming around outside rite now? Its to damn dark out apparently.
If I shoot with the flash on, I know it will bleach out everything. However, if I knew how much I should dial in the camera, it would prolly look pretty sweet. 200lbs crashing flyers as far as you can see. I know people wont believe me unless I post some pictures, so gimme some ideas...


Anyone? Pino?

Just click away Alex! I'll believe you. That Camera of yours is amazing. I'm sure you'll figure it out. Better yet hang one of those slobs and take a picture of it on the deck!

What kind of camera do you have? set the camera to shoot as many frames as possible, put it in Manual mode, then turn the aper wheel and the shutter speed till you get the bars in the center. Shoot a few pics and dial it in. I shoot a nikon D70. It tkes a few shots to get it right, you may also want to increase you iso to 400.
I hope this helps.

Alex I with Banshee here, I think it is a speed change you need. In very low light you can go up to 1000 in speed...

I love tunas ...they don't care how they land back in the water and sometimes all they do is juggle the bait on thier nose. wish I could send ya a well full of ballyhoos ....

I don't believe it for a second. There's nothing swimming around your rig...nope, nothing happening...by the way, how can I get on the chopper next time?
