None of the answers address the ops question - why the star on 1/20 seconds shot and not on 1/13.

Yes the image is overexposed.

The star effect can be caused by the narrow aperture - yours seems to be 6.9...a bit of a strange number for aperature..can you check that?

so you are using the ordinal definition of meals (breakfast first, lunch second, etc) rather than the time-centric definition (breakfast morning, lunch noon). In my book you just had dinner :)

I wonder how legal it was for them to use volume licenses on your home computers.

check to see if your bios/os can handle 3TB...most capped out at about 2. + and needed special drivers for more than that.

Old computer I assume...

Difraction shows up several ways - the fuzziness of super stopped down photos (as shown above); star bursts (as shown above).

the rainbow on the pink floyd cover is dispersion

There is also chromatic aberration, a form of diffraction, which can be seen when you have a bright light (sky) and a sharp edge of an object (dark), you see (often) purple fringe lines at the transition (on the dark side of the edge). This can often be corrected for with s/w

Diffraction happens when light "bends" around a sharp corner. Dispersion is the due to different velocities of different wavelengths as light passes through a medium (rainbow)

how into the weeds do you want to get? what do you want to do? wordpress is pretty effective and lots of plugins, but pretty straightforward to use. wix is very very simple. dreamweaver is a few steps up in complexity

i got a note 7, part of the fixed wave but now being recalled.

I was excited about the google pixel, but 1) its not waterproof, 2) no wireless charging. So going to get a samsung s7 ($100 cheaper than the note for me)

Sorry to break the news to you, these conditions are absolutely horrible for the following reasons:

1. Worst possible location for light - weird shadows, poor contrast, totally unflattering light.
2. Fluorescent lights have a frequency of 60 hz, and will flicker. Using a shutter speed that is shorter than 1/125 sec will expose you to taking images during an "off" cycle - resulting in strange color and uneven exposure, even across the frame.
3. But the action is fast, and you would want a shutter speed of at least 1/500 or shorter. So you have a no-win situation.

Unless you can get your own lighting or a camera that has an anti-flicker feature, all I can say is take a lot of exposures, and be prepared to toss half of them.

I think the 7dmkii has the anti flicker feature. when i first read it i did not appreciate how useful it can be in this venue.

So i read the 3rd edition..and found it very good. Its inexpensive, but does a thorough job of explaining the effect of aperture, speed and iso on the picture. Has lots of examples.

Simplistic, perhaps. But is it a thorough read.

So the OP asked "how to determine exposure"? Exposure is determined by shutter, f stop and iso.

How to determine the "right" exposure? thats up to the photographer (you). Once you figure out the exposure value that YOU want to get the effect you are looking for, then you can play with the 3 points of the triangle to add other effects.

Read my reply again. I've bolded the portion which shows that there's more to an exposure than 3 values.


bold did not come through on your original post
