Just keep playing around.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01216580106264628759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927879186210536238.post-60133995817436502362010-01-09T10:20:59.569-08:002010-01-09T10:20:59.569-08:00I feel the same way.

I think my issue though is that since I've started following all of these photography blogs, I feel that my pictures are very sub-par to everyone else's. LOL So, basically I just feel like I have a pos camera. It's my exucse to purchase a new one :)Carihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00081450531451538045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927879186210536238.post-47468104041611096282010-01-09T08:54:23.547-08:002010-01-09T08:54:23.547-08:00I was messing with the ISO a while ago!

I've browsed the manual once or twice, but I guess if I want to get better I should go through it in a bit more detail huh? Thanks! :Dgardenofsimplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06102015484332879862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927879186210536238.post-1366761889456660292010-01-09T08:45:36.266-08:002010-01-09T08:45:36.266-08:00Probably your ISO is too high.

Generally speaking, you want your ISO to be as low as possible for the available light. You probably have your camera set to auto right now, which is fine, but it's going to give you the settings it thinks you need, which may not be the actual best settings. <br /><br />I'm not familiar with your camera, but your manual should have a brief section on ISO and how to change it. There might even be a button right on your camera that says ISO, or it might be in your menu. Try changing it and see what happens.AmyBeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04457545689345657277noreply@blogger.com
