Moving through menus and...

    Downgrading?

    from what ive seen bridge cameras are out of my league price wise but id love one, they'd be perfect for me. Ive only got a 350d so i could only really afford what id get for that, so £150ish. I have no qualms with 2nd hand/refurbished though.

    Downgrading?

    Trouble with lighting

    I went out first time with my new dslr, and had trouble with light. Alot of the foreground was simply black on the picture, yet to my naked eye looked well lit and it ruined most of my photos. What can I do to resolve this? The inbuilt flash made the shots look terrible when I tried using that...

    Camera bag and lens covers

    Ive just got a canon 350d and am after two things for it. I already have a decent camelback bag which I use but as its not designed for a camera I just want a little bag I can keep the camera safe in when its in the camelbag. It doesnt need to look nice, just be cheap and fit a dslr and a few...
