what are some good tips for photography?

Q. I am doing a project for photography class and I need some tips to put in my presentation. Anything helps. The presentation is for people who have experience with photography but would like to improve their skills.

A. Hello Sarah Elizabeth:

As with most skills, photography starts with the fundamentals. A good photographer starts with the basics, practices and masters those basics, and then continually practices those basics while looking to improve.

Off the top of my head, here's what every photographer needs to learn first:

1) How to use their camera by studying their camera's manual (what a concept) to learn what every control does...
2) Learn composition--how to arrange your subject and other elements within your viewvinder before pressing you shutter release...
3) The nature of light, and how to work with it....
4) How to use flash--either the built in one that comes with most cameras these days, or a "shoe mounted" flash; if the camera can use one....

Now, as for your presentation... It's best to followed the "K.I.S.S." principle, which stands for "keep it siimple stupid."

Depending on how long your presentation has to be, I would take pictures that illustrate each of these four photography basics, and then mount them (via spray mount or other adhesive) onto either sheets of paper, or colored board for your presentation.

If you want to get a little more fancy and "modern" with your presentation... If you have Microsoft PowerPoint, or access to in; AND a computer connected to a video monitor or--better yet--an LCD projector, you can created a really simple (but effective) using that.

Hope this helps, and good luck with your project.


What kind of camera should I look at buying?
Q. Hi everyone, I'm getting quite a bit into photography and I'm really wanting to upgrade to a better quality camera. At the moment I just have a small digital camera by Canon, which does the job but I am a bit limited as to what I can do with it because it's a camera more for somebody who just wanted something to snap some shots for memory's sake. So anyway I wanted to know which is better - Nikon or Canon, and generally what kind of a camera would be versatile, good quality, reasonable price and suitable for a beginner.

A. I will choose Canon.
