The short answer to that is no. I havent used them before, but I have been reading up about it and asking questions of other photographers that I know, I guess I was thinking once I know what set up would be good, I could learn how to use that equipment. I'm realising I probably sound really...

I want to try my hand at childrens portraits. I own a nursery and so instead of hiring a photographer, which had disastrous effects last year, I would like to give it a try myself. I have a Canon 450D, so think its up to the job. But I would need to hire a backdrop, and lights. Whats a good...

Really enjoyed looking at this thread. Your shots are great, my favourites so far have been the slow motion street shot and the silohette shot (cant spell sorry). I'll definately be checking back here again - Good job MM

Hey guys those are fantastic and I can really work with those - thanks so much!! one very happy me.

I'm afraid i dont, the pictures have been taken from social networking sites, two most recent pictures I can find. I know it wont look great but they are the best I can find. If nothing can be done then I guess I'll leave it but thought it was worth the ask, lol. MM

Hi I bought the book understanding Exposure on recomendation of some Talk photography members. It is a good book and has helped me understand more of what my camera does. I only have a bridge camera (fuji s8000 fd) but refuse to use the auto anymore and really want to get into using the...

I agree that people ignore them, if they feel they dont like it or hard to give a constructive comment. I'm just learning and only just getting into photography and I have posted a few pictures on here, which rarely get any sort of response and usually just fall of the pages. I think its...

Hi I have a Fuji Finepix S8000fd camera, which I am really enjoying. Particularly the manual mode because its a bit like an DSLR. (Good learning curve me thinks) Anyway I noticed that there are such things as additional lenses for brindge cameras which surprised me, so I ordered a set from...

There are many tutorial videos on this on youtube, I watched one this morning that was very helpful as showed two methods, one simple, one not so simple. I'd have a browse around there and see what you find. MM:)

Ok Sorry, didnt see the thread. Will look now. MM

Hi I'm a beginner, and would love some recommendations of books that would be useful and of course interesting in helping me come to grips with all I need to know. I was given a book called starting photography for Christmas, its like a textbook and sets little challenges at the end of...
