Neon Goby, Say Cheese

I’ve been trying to capture one decent picture of this Neon Goby for sometime. My shutter speed tops out at 60th of a second when I’m in TTL mode. This guy stood till and said cheese.

Shutter speed: 1/64.00

F-stop: 19.0

ISO speed: 100

Focal length: 89.0000

Light source: Single SB 104

Marc,

What camera are you using? You should be able to get better than 1/60th unless you are using a Nikonos or something I would think.

Hi James,

I’m still using my Fuji S2 Pro in aperture priority mode.

Marc

Ah, that's cool.

Set the camera to M and set your aperture to whatever you desire and your shutterspeed to 1/125th.

In A, the camera sets the speed depending on available light - so naturally at f22, it will choose the slowest speed - which is limited to a slowest speed 1/60th with flash connected. The fastest you can sync is 1/125th.

I hope that helps you get some of the shots you were missing.

Cheers

James

Your right, I’ll give it a try next dive.

Thanks,

Marc
