Low Iso speed I would say.


Ok, so after my relative success with Scareglow, and having just recieved my SDCC Lightning Fury Raiden, I thought I would take some happy snaps.

Turns out that the few paint apps on Scareglow make all the difference. The abundance of murky white on Raiden makes it incredibly hard to get the sculpting details on him.




I even tried with a dark background, but had little success.



Luckily he looks pretty frikkin awesome without the lights on.






But with the only light source coming from him, the details are still too hard to capture. Afterwards I thought about a far softer lighting and gave it a quick try.



Which is OK for larger bits, but then the kanji on his sleeve and facial sculpting is still hard to caprture, although better with softer/less light.



Any ideas on how to get some reasonable details from this situation. Hmm, I have just noticed though, even to the naked eye, it's a bit hard to see the various bits and pieces details.
