Hi Benji,

So, if I understand you correctly, when you shoot in your camera room it's actually quite light ?

For a home living-room shooter, would it be a good idea then to dim the room lights, and then set the exposure, and then turn the room lights back on ?

I've been getting very wide iris's, as I have the room reasonably dim, but I will try this next time !!

Thanks for another great tip,

Austen.
