A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Last year we shot my daughter with Santa at F2/800iso/1-125 with my 56mm and 23mm. Since then I've gotten a 17-70mm 2.8 that I thought might be easier, but the 2.8 I'm thinking might not let in enough light. I don't think I can go slower on the shutter and upping iso might not be optimal. Thoughts?

Looking at the lens line up, you’ve got a modern mirrorless camera. The drama starts at ISO 3200 or 6400 depending what you find acceptable. Even better, shoot wide open, shutter speed 1/125th and auto iso.

I generally do use auto iso but may need to adjust a bit. Thanks!
