To add to that I recommend a tripod and then start in AV mode until you get a basic handle on things. Learn the triangle and how each setting affects the other. Them you can get an idea of which way each setting needs to go.

Thank you guys. My budget is maxed out after the light box so I'll have to wait a couple weeks to get a tripod. Excuse my ignorance, but what is the purpose of AV mode?

I do have a question... what technique/equipment do you guys use to get a 'thru the scope' shot?

Yep the lower the number the shallower the depth of field(in focus) area is, it requires less light but then everything isn't crisp. The higher the aperture is the more light is required. You can then in turn turn up your Iso but the higher that number is the more grainy looking your shot will be. It's a balancing act between everything.

I'm playing around with it right now and it's getting much better after switching to AV mode and adjusting the ISO, exposure, and the aperture size. As of now the best result has been from F18(I'm assuming this is aperture size), ISO 800, and exposure +1.67. Is there any way to avoid focusing on one point? It focuses on one point and everything except that point is just blurry enough that you can hardly make out the letters and numbers.

I don't recall if it's mentioned here, but a decent resource is the book Understanding Exposure. I read it years ago and really need to revisit it (but it appears to have gone missing!).

Having a degree in photography, I always get the question "what should I have my settings on?" Well much like the building of a rifle it all depends on what your wanting to do. the thing I tell people is photography is nothing more than the understanding and mastery of light. Learn how light works and you'll get there. Subject matter is king though 😁

Haha yep sure am. As far as "that guy" I'm not sure what you mean as it could be a number of things, I'll assume you mean dashingly good looking in which case I'm your guy. I had a job in video production and photography and it kinda ruined my passion for it. Yeah it was much better money than law enforcement but I wasn't fulfilled with what I was doing. Having always been called to the mil/Leo world I just jumped in and never looked back. It's never been about the money for me. I know I'm a fool

He discovered his love of law enforcement after his bootleg porn business was visited by them.
