Better
pictures

Taking
pictures is fun. Play around with the camera and learn how it works
so that you become familiar with it. Digital cameras give you the
picture right on the screen so you can see the result and improve
where and when.
Camera Options
Digital
cameras have taken over the market for compact camera. The quality is
now so good on compact cameras that most people are betting on this
rather than mirror-reflex camera that is heavier and bigger. Compact
cameras on the market are of different quality. Read, therefore,
carefully tests on the compact camera before you buy so you can blink
out the best purchases regardless of what the stores would rather
sell you.
Storage of images
Remember to
save your images in several places and not only on chip: An external
HD is fine for this. Burn the backup to DVD or CD: A good tip is to
rent a safety deposit box for backup in case of fire. The photos are
valuable, and the more valuable they become in time, especially
family photos.
Keep quiet
or use the camera tripod
Digital
cameras are small and easy to put in your pocket. Therefore, there
are several opportunities to use the camera. But "in the
move" it is easy to make "haste images" - images that
are often blurred because you do not hold the camera calmly. In poor
lighting snapping it is more important than ever to keep the camera
steady. Support will be happy against a pole or wall if you can. Do
you have a tripod the images are often sharper.
Go hands-on
- Portrait photo
A
classic mistake by person shooting is to take a step backwards for
the image to be taken. Go closer. Give instructions. Like to see in a
particular direction, do something or to stand in a certain angle.
Often, this can also resolve the situation so that the image will not
be so placed - and the subject person will have something else to be
concerned about than the camera.
Locations
and depth effect
Landscape
photography is often better if you find a foreground. There may be a
figure, a tree or something else that gives the two-dimensional image
a three dimensional effect. Like a number of telephone poles along a
road. Trees along the river where you can see that the trees are
getting smaller the farther away they are in the picture. Foreground
can also be so that the image is affected in the example. Like two
trees with the landscape to depict between them. Fog can also give
such a depth effect in the picture.
Light
against the lens
Light
against the lens can provide many interesting effects in the picture
- whether you're taking portrait or landscape pictures. Be sure to
turn off the flash so you take maximum advantage of these effects
fully. Or use the flash to compensate for shadows that are too dark
near the camera.
Flash Use
Digital
cameras have flash that automatically turns on in low light.
Sometimes it may be an idea to turn off the flash, especially in
landscape photography. Without flash, it is more natural light in the
picture and you will not have annoying shadows. Red eye, you can
avoid with a setting function of the camera, but if you are unlucky
and get red eyes of a person, most image processing applications on
Microsoft Vista fix it in the hand. In many situations, the flash is
the only option. Try an extra flash that blinks at the same time with
the flash on the camera: It provides valuable additional light.
Sections and
editing on PC
Digital
cameras allow you to go directly to the PC and edit the image once
it is made. This is educational and fun. For here you can try out
with different crop and colour shades.

Family Photography:
No one has
ever complained about too many pictures of the children when they
were young. No one has ever complained about too many pictures of
grandparents who have passed away. No one has ever complained about
too many pictures from the trip to Paris, London etc. Photos are a
valuable treasure of memory that all appreciate. Like an important
documentation of the time that has passed. Like a source to enjoyment
and contemplation. Take rather too many than too few pictures.
Digital Camera provides generous opportunities to take many photos
without large costs.

What
story?
Think
through what story you want to tell in the picture. Is it a walk in
the woods? A story about a child's first day at school?
A portrait
of a baker?
Then it
might be a good idea to have more than the face of the person. Like
the baker with his cap and a loaf of bread. Like the first school day
in the classroom or with the teacher.
The
possibilities are many.
Good
planning can give you good ideas. But do not forget to be alert: The
ultimate motive may suddenly be there

Depth Effects
Depth
Effects in the picture gives the two-dimensional image a three
dimensional effect.
Rows of
trees or telephone poles along the road can give depth effect:
Picture quality with an exciting result.
