Thanks to the two that told me the name of the flower.. it's a Hibiscus

canon all the way baby!! haha..

I have a 40D and a 350D.. but is more about the lenses imo.. I've spent far more money on glassware than cameras..

thanks btw

My mum doesnt even know how to work hers.
It just sits there.

So of course I feel bad for it sitting there not getting used...
*I think cameras have feelings o.O!!*

I just fiddle with it
I can adjust the shutter speed?
Its a start

aw man.. you're so lucky.. it took me 6months of saving every single cent to buy my 350D!!

the camera does have feelings.. it is sad that you haven't used it and learnt it's many abilities.. lol.. dooo it!

haha if you're adjusting shutter speed then you're 1/4 of the way to being in total control.. if you can focus that is 1/2 way if you can set the ISO you're already at 3/4 and then learning apature is the big one and that makes 4 of 4

Foomper In reply to Jer-Trow [2008-07-15 14:17:42 +0000 UTC]

Focus... check!
Shutter speed... check again!
ISO... uhh that makes pictures grainy if used incorrectly?
Half check!

And apature... double u, tee, eff?

Jer-Trow In reply to Foomper [2008-07-15 14:23:03 +0000 UTC]

rofl..

ISO is the sensitivity of the camera.. high number (like 800 or 1600) means more sensitive.. low number means less sensitive.. high numbers mean more grainy-ness

apature.. hmm.. aperture.. let's see if wiki helps? haha.. the easiest way to learn is to play.. set ur camera to AV and set the aperture value and just take some photos.. see what each does!
