Obscura shooting points

Shoot with large F value Obscura 16 is very large f/22, f/45, f/90.This means that there is a wide range of focusing so there is no need to adjust the focus mechanism that you should find on ordinary lenses.It is easy to focus without needing to be focused, but there are following precautions due to high F photography.	Keep the sensor (image elements) clean. When shooting with Obscura, the camera sensor smudges (small black dots) are clearly captured when shooting with Obscura.This is not a problem for those who are concerned about it, but if you are concerned about it, please clean the sensor in advance.	High ISO sensitivity When shooting with Obscura, the amount of light entering the camera is significantly reduced.Therefore, by setting the high ISO sensitivity, it is necessary to capture the right amount of light even with less light.	Or use a tripod Those who say that the noise generated by high ISO sensitivity are unacceptable and need to slow down the shutter speed and compensate for the amount of light.In that case, please fix the camera with a tripod or other device.Also, with a handheld + slow shutter you can create a sense of motion in your photos.
