using flash? nono. Anyway congratulation on your new camera! Welcome to the dark side..(Though im neither Dark or light side... )

is flash bad? i dono where to get the light source

thanks =D

congrats on new camera bro !!!



take more photos ya

Is just my personal preferences always not to use built in flash whenever possible. No light source..then is time test your Camera Iso quality and play with shuttle speed & train ur steady hand. hehehe

congratulation on ur new D40
as for ur photo, clearly it is shot using built in flash, which according to clivengu is a nono.

therefore...POISON #1: SB-400 can bounce d light to create soft light

okay, noted. after stepping into DSLR world..
i have a bad feeling about my wallet

i dono what light is that



it took me about 15 minutes to set up
came back home and checked it was blurry, i need moar practice.
whats the best settings for night shots?

Really steady hand or use a tripod.

flower pic
1. focus issue
2. composition can be improved.

good try.

tripod's the best. but note the wind haha..... n hell, i'm not even a dslr user

it's not a matter of what user you are. it's a matter of understanding the logic of light vs camera sensor.

Yup. It's the photogs. Look for Alex Majoli. Awesome photogs who mostly shoots with his Olympus PnS!

thanks everyone

ok.


1. focus issue on which?

2. okay, noted.

shiney...
the dragon's pic...
direct flash too harsh...=)..
as u can c...
onlyt he front part is lighted...
so...
u need something to bounce or diffuse ur flash...
for the time being....y not try putting a white a4 paper in front of ur flash...
that shud soften the light while waitng for ur SB-800! hehehehe...

for the flowers...it's a wee bit underexposed to me...i think...
sorry didnt calibrate my monitor...
it's best if u juz focus the flower instead of including the leaves beside it...and also the top part of the flower....shud have cropped it out...
second flower...u also noticed...not sure where's ur focus point though...

for the silhoutte pics...if u could...
use a tripod and remote shutter or delay...will reducs the blur...

=)
pracetive makes perfect bro...
hope u dun get offended by wat i comment...

thanks bro, im still learning, i dont mind at all

owh, aiyoooo. dont say that lahhhhhh xD,
okay bro thanks.

lol, i thought the flowers are overexposed.
ok bro, thanks

ok, thank you!
