The Good, Bad and Ugly. Taking Digital Pictures Effectively.

This entry will list some key points - check out her web notes (www.lesliefisher.com) to get all the exciting ideas.

1) Remember the difference between an amateur and a professional is the number of pictures you take, but more importantly the number of pictures you show (or don't show.) Take, take and take but be prepared to throw away.

2) Become friendly with your Manual, it has the details you will want to know about your specific camera.

3) Look at picture or viewfinder from edge to edge. Decide what is really important and let the picture be the storyteller.


4) To save those picture from a blasting flash: set a timer; use a tripod and use night mode.

5) Your camera has an optical and digital zoom. Optical zoom uses the mechanical movement of the lens. Digital zoom is the camera adjustment within the viewfinder. Check to make sure you aren't taking pictures with digital zoom.


The Good, the Bad, the Ugly by Leslie can be googled as a way of furthering your knowledge.
