realization
I’ve been tweaking my DSLR but not as much as needed so my skills haven’t really improved as much. I wish to study this one but it seems that I always have an excuse in doing other things. However, I’ve come to a realization that it doesn’t really matter if you have a point-and-shoot camera when you know how to adjust the settings.
Having a DSLR is a bit more complicated because you have to understand the settings according to how you can maximize the shot. However, the issue sometimes is to be able to capture that perfect shot. When you are in that perfect moment, you don’t want to screw the picture that’s why you have to make sure that the settings are in the proper place and that’s the challenge I’m still having.
That’s why when people see that I have a DSLR with me, I always inform them that I’m still studying it and I’m still a novice because I don’t want to give the impression that I’m an expert in this field.
Most people think that having a professional camera will produce good pictures. Although it’s somewhat true because the quality is really different because of having more room for tweaking, it’s still within the one who handles the camera. Right now, I still have better pictures using my old Olympus SW790 camera but that’s because I haven’t learned as much as I need to using my Nikon D80.
Just a thought.

I know what you mean…dslr is much complicated. I have one myself but I am not good at making pictures with it yet. I envy those who make such beautiful pics.
