Centering Pictures I take pictures and keep cutting off the heads I have the subject centered inside the yellow square in the viewfinder but samething cut off the heads. I recently did a whole roll of still shots of doll babies and guess what NO HEADS! HELP I'M FRUSTRATED! 5/26/2002 1:01:11 PM |

By "yellow square in the viewfinder" I'm assuming you are not using an SLR, but a point & shoot camera. You are experiencing parallax error. The viewfinder and camera lens are physically separated by a couple inches. What you see in the viewfinder is not exactly the same scene the lens will record. There is very little difference when your subject is 10+ feet away, but as you found there is a big difference in close-up shots of your dolls. Your viewfinder may have parallax error lines that you should use to frame a close subject rather than filling the entire viewfinder. See 5/28/2002 2:16:38 PM |
