As mentioned in my previous post, we bought a SLR in order to take better pictures of A in action. It’s been quite a learning experience, graduating from the convenience of a compact point & shoot to the complexity of having to take full control of the camera settings!
S has been reading all sorts of articles on exposure metering, white balance and depth of field, most of which unfortunately goes right over the top of my head! I’ll readily admit there are times when I wished getting a better camera would magically lead to nicer photos and all I had to do was press the shutter release. However as the saying goes, reality bites. So while we’re slowly exploring all the manual controls available on the camera, we still resort to the programmed modes like the Aperture-priority and sports modes for those occasions where time is of the essence. Below are some examples from our recent, not-so-disastrous efforts!
