Sydney Opera House - Feb 2007

Canon 350D (RebelXT) with Tokina 12-24 (F4) (18-36mm EQ 35 ))Lens.

ISO 400, 1/30 @ F4, Focal lengh =12mm (18mm equivalent). Hand Held.

 

Why.

12-24 Lens it is a good city walk around lens - where you want to capture the scene. Also is not too intrusive.

 

ISO = 400 - Reasonable qiality in lowish light setting that also allow hand holding.

 

Speed = 1/30 - Lowest I felt that would overcome camera shake.

 

Aperture = F4 I Felt it would give me enough depth of field (sharpness between forground and background) with the current ISO.

 

Focal Length = 12mm - I like the POV it gave me

 

Hand held - because I was a tourist in my own with family and friends (non photographers)

 

Pic was PP in CS2 to lighten up the foreground.
