Anybody knows how to adjust settings on the sony T1 digicam to get better quality pictures under dim light/indoors? thanks.
I cant get photos to come up
My Nikon 4500 will routinely flash me if there's low light, and I just as routinely ignore it. Do not use a flash. Hold the camera very steady. Do not move it even after you fire the shutter. If it's like my Nikon, it will keep the shutter open long enough to get the picture. Motion will, of course, cause blurring.
The T1 has the weakest flash of any digital camera. It is only rated for 4.9 feet coverage. So it is natural to want to try some low light techniques. But the T1 is also a point-and-shoot camera, with some scene modes. That means you have little control over low light situations. Under low light situations, it is best to use a tripod. But the T1 does not have a tripod socket. You want to set the shutter speed to a very low speed, the aperture to wide open and set the ISO to its highest setting. But the T1 will not let you control those adjustments. You can try the "Twilight" or "Twilight Portait" scene modes, and also set the Exposure Compensation to +2. Also set the flash to "off". Cross your fingers and fire away, even if the camera warns you there is not enough light. A dark picture is better than no picture. Sometimes you can "pump" it up with software.
