150 shots in around 9 hours (30 or 40 are usable)

Got quite a few shots that should be useful for doing 3D modelling, but I'm afraid I didn't really get all that many of people, and those I did get were pretty poor quality. The "P" mode of the camera is not the one to use for internal night shots where people are moving a lot (at least it seems that way). Mostly there isn't enough light to support a fast shutter speed, so everything winds up blurred, dark, or pixelated. Will have to work on finding something usable.
Anyway, have to be up in ~6 hours to play grams, so will call it a night. Do need to think about a better way to manage the pictures. Even manually uploading them to Vex is going to take a lot of time if I'm shooting 150/day (I won't be; I seldom go anywhere, after all, but I do intend to use it far more than I'd like to manually crop, upload and link). ZPhotoSlides is calling... but not as loud as that seductive siren bed.

Dishdrain cathedral... not sure why I like cazy pictures like that so much. The unexpected place to look. The patterns, light and shadow. <br />

Anyhow, I tend to use Tv mode for flashless indoor; i find it's all about shutter speed (and settings speed: don't have time to adjust a million settings!)... other settings can take care of themselves for the most part. Though another thing to play with is the white balance. The pictures tend to be yellow with auto white balance and long indoor exposures. Switching the mode to "tungsten" in most houses helps make the light a little more natural looking. Which sometimes is good, sometimes not.<br />

The delay is always annoying. One depends a bit on luck all the time. Pre-focus with a half-press sometimes is helpful, but in most situations where there is movement one doesn't have time for that..<br />
