Thanks to all who replied. I'll bracket around 1/30 - 1/60 (Special thanks to Don who gave such a great reply*. Unfortunately in this case I don't think I can use a masking technique - if it works out you'll see why.) Cheers, Simon

If the image on the screen is moving, you don't want it TOO much slower, so maybe 1/60 or 1/30. If it's a still image, anything slower than 1/60 should work just fine. I tend to wind on the film in my cameras by taking pictures of my computer desk, so I have quite a few CRT pictures kicking around :-) -Mat Simon King wrote: > Hi All, > This is only semi OT, as it's about an photograph I've been thinking about > for the December PUG. > Does anyone have any shutter speed/exposure tips for photographing an image > that includes a CRT monitor (75Hz refresh rate) > Cheers, > Simon
