I have a Fuji Finepix S4000 "Bridge Camera". I love the camera and it takes great pictures, except when I try to take pictures of the sun. Maybe someone can tell me what I am doing wrong here. Every picture, the sun is distorted with a weird glow around it, as in this picture. The setting I used was in aperature priority, f/5.9, SS 1/2000 and ISO 100. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
Try not shooting directly into the sun.
Folks will say oh it's overexposed and it is but guess what the sun will always be "overexposed" cuz its the source of light.
Put the sun off the side or meter off the sky around the sun but not including the sun - BRACKET - maybe 5 shots.......and watch till the sun is gone
