It was raining today here in Florida, so I decided to try a shot at a droplet shot. I still don't have a flash for the camera and I had to use the flash that is built into my A6400. Let me know what you guys think.

Hi!šŸ˜ƒ Nice pic but the water droplet is a bit blur. I zoomed in and the focus in this photo seems on the left side of the stem, not on the center where the water droplet is.
In my experience, if I'm not using flash and want to shoot in low light, I'll use a small f stop such as f2.4- f4, iso 400 and more, 1/125s or 1/60s to gather more light.

Focus is slightly off, the camera settings look ok, working distance might be a touch close. I miss focus all the time too but I always double check my shots to see if I have hit focus. The closer you are the trickier it gets.

Thank you for the feed back.
