My old TG2 is still chugging away. Once in a while when its steamy I use the I Auto setting which will eliminate the back scatter. The camera, when flash is disabled, will then calculate its own settings to cope with the available light. Technically they wont be brilliant but I like the soft focus that occurs which can be interesting for portrait type studies. The camera will ramp up the ISO as well as open the aperture usually to f2. It will also give a slow shutter speed so the camera and subject must be static for a short while. My photos are hand held so can be a bit hit and miss.
f2, 1/15 sec, 800 ISO
f2, 1/8 sec , 800 ISO
f2, 1/10 sec, 800 ISO
The Frozen Deep.
f2 1/8 sec, ISO 1250
If the colours look too curious you could apply colour correction on Photoshop or render the image in black and white.
I was happy with the colour image but this is the black and white version. Upper Frozen Deep with a range here of nearly 30 metres to the back wall so very hard to light normally.
F2 , 1/10 sec, 1,000 ISO.
For the time it takes its worth banging off several shots remembering to hold the camera very still. Better to use some sort of support obviously. Simple camera, simple set up. Can pretty much be done on the move.
