The recommendations that follow, if observed and practiced,
will yield digital photographs that will impress others.
You may just find a way to become a professional and make
lots of money.
Here are the 10 tips:
1. Discover your camera's capabilities, options, and
shortcuts. Go through the manual, you may be blown away
by how capable your camera is. Look through the menus
and try things out.
2. Start by photographing the subject matter that appeals to you the most. Create a record of your favorite themes and then go on the net and locate inspiring examples to study from and imitate. Time spent getting ideas at the Flickr site can be very worthwhile.
3. Acquire the finest equipment you can afford after doing adequate researching. All or most of the investigation can be performed on the net.
4. Learn about Lighting. You will be able to save time and effort by first figuring out how natural light creates different outcomes than artificial light.
5. Make use of optical zoom as opposed to digital zoom -
you will get sharper pictures.
5. Acquire a tripod and keep it handy. At times a monopod, and/or a tabletop tripod are valuable, so, if you can manage it, get one of each.
6. In cases where people are in a picture, ask them to perform something besides looking at the camera. A particular fun thing to try and do is get at least one of the people in the picture to point at something. Have you observed the way in which politicians frequently point at something in photos. They are intentionally trying to make it seem as if they are the leader. This can be done in a humorous way with your photo subjects.
7. In the event you have time, take one shot with flash and one without flash. It's advisable to keep records, at least mental notes, on which come out better. Professionals almost always make use of flash.
8. Once again, as long as you have time, take shots from various ranges and with various settings.
9. Practice. Today's digital memory cards hold mass quantities
of pictures. So, there is hardly ever a need to hold back on the amount of pictures.
10. If you even vaguely think that you may go pro, begin creating a portfolio to produce your "resume".
