Digital Photography should not be intimidating. Anyone can pick up this hobby in a fairly short period of time. Getting Started: Step 1: Select a camera that suits your needs. Price is important, of course, but don't select a camera with less than one megapixel of resolution or your money will be wasted.  Step 2: Insert your storage media. Step 3: Select a subject (be creative). Step 4: Check your lighting and exposure, and shoot away! Step 5: Tkae your pictures back to your digital darkroom (computer) and make your touch-ups. Optional: Send your files to be printed. |
