I've been fiddling around with the manual settings on my camera lately, which I don't have THAT much interest in doing and am just trial and erroring my way through it... but all the cool kids are doing it so I thought I'd try.
So far the biggest advantage seems to be that Maisy less frequently comes out as a dog-shaped black blob whose pictures need a lot of post-production work to un-blob her. This is completely untouched except from cropping.
Still hard for everyone to look normal with a white dog and a black-and dog in the snow, though. That is something that will just always be a thorn in my side, I think.
Pip... no difference.
Hover-Maisy, lol. Again, un-blobby. And a bit sharper focus at a distance. And Squash was considerate enough to be half in shadow so he's not totally washed out.
This was actually taken with one of the pre-modes, but I like it SO THERE.
