Post your good Digital Pics - Settings and Histograms

[Michael Georges]

I get mixed results from my digital camera. I have a Canon D10. I take pretty good shots of my subjects. My shots of paints have been, thus far, iffy with this camera.

I was wondering if folks might be willing to talk about settings and maybe we could come to a couple of good reference points by analyzing some histogram and camera setting info from your shots.

Now, I think that most digitals will give that info. I get mine from a software file viewing utility tool that came with my camera.

I am interested in common settings that folks use to get consistent results.

I will post one of my favorite shots along with its histogram and details next.

Here is one of my favorites. Shot at night with my tungstein light at a raking angle.

Here are the stats and the histogram:
