- If I may say: digital cameras, when use in poor lighting conditions, tend to automatically go to equivalent ISO400 or ISO800 settings, where they apparently turn off some filtering of the CCD output. The result is noise on the picture. In order to avoid this (I think I made a reasonably good job on the photos on Verona), one has to use a tripod and lock the camera in equivalent ISO100 sensitivity. In a church, this may mean poses of 1/3 or 1/2 second; in a crypt such as this one, probably longer — but with a tripod and no visitors, this is not a problem. Many places ban large tripods, but you can often use a small "table tripod" over a bench, table, shelf, etc. David.Monniaux 20:40, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- This hint is not really helpful because the image was taken with a analog camera. And yes, I used a tripod and there is no problem with sharpness at the original slide. It might be connected to the scan or it even might be some JPEG artifacts. Andreas Tille 11:24, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)

- Weak support I like such "dark" scenes, but is this crypt special? David.Monniaux 20:38, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- What do you mean with special? In a historic sense? It is the place were the first German emperor is buried and it is used in German WikiPedia. In a featured image sense? I only took part in one single photo contest at all and it got second place. Andreas Tille 11:18, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- I was asking whether the crypt had any kind of architectural peculiarities, for instance. David.Monniaux 11:15, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- I'll ask my wife, because she is more kind of an expert than me. But the reason for the upload was that this place has an historical importance. Andreas Tille 15:02, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
