gnasher16 31,602 Posted August 27, 2011 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 Anyone know of a website or book available that will teach the basics of cameras and photography ? Ive just come back off a very interesting trip where i took a load of pics only to see they have all come out like a 7 year old took them !.....I often look at the pics on this site some of yous lads take,well you cant all be professionals.........where can i learn in a simple to understand,not too technical way,how to take a decent picture ?

Ossie n Arch 1,683 Posted August 27, 2011 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 Same here. Some of the lads i go hill walking with take really good pics, i take the photo from the same place and they are rubbish. One good thing about the digital era is you can take as many as you like and delete the crap ones, or in my case most of them. Just learn as you go on i would say, or ask photo taking mates.

gnasher16 31,602 Posted August 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 Same here. Some of the lads i go hill walking with take really good pics, i take the photo from the same place and they are rubbish. One good thing about the digital era is you can take as many as you like and delete the crap ones, or in my case most of them. Thats it.....i took 250 pictures and a grand total of 5 are average/good........most are either blurry,too dark, too far away or i plain missed .....could anyone recommend a simple to use but good quality camera ?....preferably that will fit in your pocket and not one with them massive great lenses..........im not after professional pictures,just decent quality and easy to use.
