How do you guys photograph tests?

MrsMay · Mar 3rd, 2010, 22:16 PM

Yesterday I took a test with FMU, and there was a faint line, but it was still there (DH saw it too!), Today I took a test FMU and a very very faint line came up. I wanted to take pics to post here for your guys oppinions, but everytime i took a picture the flash would glare and ruin the pic, and if I turned the flash off you couldn't see anything on the test window.

Sorry that this is kind of a stupid question, I just see you guys posting extremely clear pictures and mine look crappy

Try going outside to take the pic. Natural lighting can help pick it up.

Or stand in your bathroom (if the lights are bright) or underneath a lamp, turn off your flash and try it.

I'm not sure what kind of camera you are using but some offer the ability to adjust your flash level. Mess with the settings or look up your camera's tutorial online to see if you can figure it out.

Either way, congrats on your lines!!!

If you use the macro setting on your camera, it should help show up those lines x

The macro/close up setting is the one shown by a flower, I laid my tests on loo roll to prevent glare.

Yes like the other ladies had said use your macro setting and you should have better photos.

And bright lights around without a flash I found best.
