I took some lightning photos around midnight in Kansas on May 29th... pretty nice anvil crawlers. My exposure came out okay, but I was a bit disapointed in how blurry they were. I used a tripod and cable release and it wasn't windy so the camera could not have shaken. My guess is that I didn't focus good enough. I tried to do an automatic focus with the cable release but the camera didn't allow me to take pics (which I find weird?), so I had to do manual focus... does anyone know how to focus in pitch dark and get sharper lightning images?
I'm using the Canon rebel with the kit lens. Perhaps not the best lens, but I can't afford to get a better one at the moment.
Thanks in advance for any tips and tricks....
