I can't handhold much below 125. Keep in mind that shutter speed should be at or above you focal length length bless on a tripod. So if your zoomed out to 300mm your shutter speed should be around 1/500th. Any less and I would plan on camera shake being your culprit.. my 3 cents.

I like both for different reasons. I tend to crop in the viewfinder (bad habit) I know. Us old school guys tend to do that... I liked both the eye and the earring as focal points. My eye is still drawn to her eye, and the veins in her head are part of her so I dont mind them. I see what everyone is talking about in the cropped version and I like it as well, but I still like the original better.. By the way I had to work a little just to get a piece of her left eye!!! Thou shalt not take a one eyed portrait!!! My rule... Thanks to all for your comments..

Better?

My lovely wife on the phone... Love the overall softness and sharp eye!! Comments welcome......

I don't have the latest on1 updates, so I don't think I can adjust temp? I got sick of paying for them. I'll try your suggestions tomorrow, but my gut tells me I'll be throwing other things off. Thanks for the ideas...

White balance daylight. I like the warmth it gives me with the gels and incandescent's. I have only Lightroom and on1 softwares. Do you know of an editing software that may help me? Thanks in advance

We purchased a new pre-lit tree and garlands this year. Their lit with "Bright White LED's" Problem is when photographed they show up really green almost like fluorescent lights. They are also flocked which turns all the snow white green around the lights. If I paint in lightroom using about 2780 kelvin I can turn them white, however it makes everything else blue as you might expect. I guess I could go thru and fix each light by itself, but it will be until next year before i'm done. It's not just the tree, but several garlands, etc all lit the same way. Im also have some incandescent lights on in the room, a fireplace running and some hidden speedlights with warming gels. Any ideas to fix the darn LED's???????????

Sure..

Thanks for the kind words!!

I stand corrected.. focus indicator does seem to work!!! Still looks soft.😕
