I am going to attempt to write a few posts about how to get out of the AUTO setting on your camera. There's a lot to think about when taking a picture. I read a blog called My 3 boybarians. I read the first three posts all in the same night. I even hauled out my camera and did the "homework" assignments so I could work along! I was amazed at what I learned! The thing I liked the most were her analogies. She did a great job explaining each part of the camera so it was easy to understand. That is what I am going to attempt to do!
Here it goes...
First, your lens is everything! The actual camera is really just a light box. Yes, it does things that will make your pictures good but learning to use your camera in a mode besides AUTO will make your pictures great! I'm not saying go out and buy a new lens. I'm just saying know what you have and what it will do! For example the lens that came with my camera is a 18-55mm f4.6. I have a 35mm f1.8 that I use all the time.
Play around with your lens.
This blog post was all about getting familiar with your camera. Read the manual!
Try reading this post from the blog I mentioned above it explains the shutter speed.
