Thanks a lot. :)
I use a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3, nothing fancy. For that shot, I darkened the room (I think it was at night, so I simply turned off the lights) and used a desk lamp shining from below. It's already been two years since I took that pic, but the image properties tell me it had an ISO of 100, and a shutter speed of 1/8 second.
I don't know a lot about the technical aspects of photography, but I usually have my ISO on auto, and vary the shutter speed (my camera only has 4 options, 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 and 1 second) until I get the result I want, and depending on the light I'm using.
Hope this was helpful. :)

Thanks for the info. I give it a try. When i make a cool pic i will post it in here...
 
I found how to do my manual settings on my camera finally.

Can you anyone share some simple settings I can try to take pics in.

I am in a basement so no ambient light. Only some overhead lightbulbs so light is there but a little faint. Pics on auto come out grainy and somewhat dark. Using the flash kills all the detail and gives my hot spots. :(
 
I was playing with my camera, and took these. Please bear in mind that these were takin with my Iphone 3GS :lol, but I like the creepy vibe some of them have

Wait. You can adjust shutter speed on a Lumix?!



[Edit: Just checked mine. I had no idea I could bump it up to 1 second! :hi5: This might come in handy!]
 
A couple of my fave shots:

If you are going for 'low key' shots then I recommend buying some cheap LCD lights, even a LCD torch will do, light the figure from the sides and top, that way no light will light up your black backdrop, if going for a slow shutter speed then remember to use a tripod or something else stable to avoid camera shake :clap

Thanks. I have been trying to get some help on this for a bit, I appreciate it. I wish I knew more about the settings.
