Glad you like it and hope that you will visit more often.
![]() I too use a Kodak Easyshare and it is a pretty nice, inexpensive camera. The key as you mentioned is to take hundreds of photos using different settings; find the setting that works best and then take another hundred to get 10 decent pictures to turn out. ![]() Scott Z. |

How technical do you want it????
A tripod helps yes, but here are some things to remember Shutter speed is the key for stopping movement! ANything above 1/60 should be enough to stop a swimming fish. Also the "program" mode of your camera tends to over expose by about 1/2 to 1 stop. And here is the best secret, if you underexpose a picture, even by as much as 2 stops you can bring the highlights back using Photoshop. The worst thing that we can do to a digital picture is OVEREXPOSE since once the highlights are gone they are gone forever!! If your camera has a manual setting option, play around with it, using 1/60 as a starting place. |
