Better Photo Camera Tips – Starting Digital

By Ryanita

Photo Digital CamerasDigital media and digital cameras have definitely changed how the world views the world. Super megapixel cameras under $200.00 puts the power of creativity into the hands of more people than ever before. There are certain photo tips unique to the world of digital photography that most people just have to learn with time.

First photo tip for digital cameras is:  most camera manufacturers do not make their own memory cards. Getting a 9 megapixel camera with a 16mb or 32mb memory card is almost insulting. I currently have two 4gigabyte cards.

Second photo tip for digital cameras is: not all memory cards are the same. The first time I got a digital camera, I went out to shoot a soccer game. The response time in most cases, is almost as fast as my traditional 35mm when shooting photos.

Third photo tip for digital cameras is, bigger is NOT always better. Most, beginning digital photographers want photos 8×10 or smaller in size. I’m going to go out on a limb here and state, at that size most people could NOT tell if you shot it at 9 mega pixels or at 5 mega pixels. Remember that nice large 4 gigabyte card you got?

Fourth photo tip for digital cameras is; don’t always use the LCD screen. If you like changing batteries two or three times during one event, by all means use it all the time. Most LCD screens are not always the same proportion as the photos you shoot. Plus, if you need another reason LCD screens are not as always easy to see in bright light.

Fifth photo tip for digital cameras is; don’t let mega pixels make you lazy. Don’t shoot 20 feet away, when the shot you want is 3 feet away. If you want better quality images, then start by shooting better quality to begin with.

Take Spectacular Nighttime Photos with your Digital Camera

Night photographs express a special something that cannot be seen in normal daytime photography. There are some tricks, though, to taking spectacular nighttime photos with your digital camera, tricks that can be explained yet only completely learned through practice.

This first part of a three-part series on nighttime photography will cover tricks not necessarily related to digital camera settings, but tricks nonetheless that can result in better photographs or a more pleasing photo-taking experience.

* Although more expensive digital cameras do not necessarily result in better photos, realize that the cheapest cameras may not be capable of taking great photographs at night. It requires more work, both on your’s and the camera’s part, to take spectacular shots in very low-light situations.

* Especially if you are not completely familiar with your camera’s settings to enhance nighttime photography, consider first taking some photographs around dusk, when the sun has not yet completely left the sky.

* Be prepared for the environment. Check the weather before you go and wear a poncho or coat if necessary. You’re taking photos at night to have fun and create spectacular results.

Timing is crucial, especially when taking pictures in the brief time between dusk and total darkness. And, the environment and weather can play havoc with your plans. By purchasing the correct equipment, studying the subject area before nighttime falls, and dealing with unexpected situations with the correct nighttime gear, you can be better prepared to take amazing nighttime photos.
