Get a tripod. Shoot further but zoom in more. Don't use the flash to get in as much natural light. Up the exposure a bit.

You seriously need to know the meanings of aperture, ISO and shutter speed before even taking pictures with a dSLR. doh.gif

My advise is to go take pictures of landscapes and static objects before even thinking of taking pictures of a fashion show.

firstly, thanks for your advice.. but i think i already understand all of those.

i already set my arpeture to the biggest, iso already boost up to 800.. i dun wanna go to 1600 coz the image will appear very noisy. shutter speed i cannot go low, first reason coz those models dont pose there for a long time.. and secondly, my hand aint that steady anyway..

and dont tell me not to shoot at a fashion show, coz i go there to learn.. no to shoot for some magazine or anything  rclxub.gif  , by saying that.. meaning all noobs must shoot lens cap at home? cannot go out and shoot events and learn from them?  doh.gif

Let me rephrase that on a bit more technical terms. Looking at the EXIF data of your pictures, all your pictures are taken at ISO1600 and at F29. Some more the WB is way off. Do you look at the EXIFs of your own pictures?

Next time, try to use auto WB as a start and test the lighting before the show starts. Do manual WB if needed. Don't use such high aperture values. You want to make the model as the subject and you are not taking landscapes. Try some F values like 2.8, 3.2 up to 5.6 if possible. Use a focal length of about 100mm (35mm equivalent) if you are near at a nice location or use shorter focal length. ISO should not go above 400 and shutter speed should be at least 1/100s.

If you are not that familiar, do use the P mode and fix your ISO at somewhere between 200 and 400. Let the camera set the aperture and shutter speed for you.

Please learn to walk before you run.
