A lesson on taking pictures...

[Nochowderforyou]

hey all,

One too many threads do I see bad pictures, with blurry buds, so I'm going to tell you how to take a picture.

It's called the Macro setting. It is a little flower icon that comes up on your digi camera screen. For taking a close up of buds, use this setting.

If your camera doesn't have this setting or you can't figure it out, don't bother posting the picture. It looks awful and doesn't show the true beauty of the bud.

When the background is in focus and the bud isn't, you have it on the wrong setting, so use the macro.

That is all. Thanks you.

Also make sure you have the right lighting because without it the bud doesn't really look as well either. I don't know about any one else but sometimes changing the "White Balance" helps me get better pics along with better light.

its also nice to have something like a lighter or a ruler to compare the size

Very nice! :thumbsup: Background is blurry, bud isn't. A perfect example.

Try moving the camera farther away. Avoid going closer than 6 inches from the lens to the thing you're taking a picture of.

My cam. requires that you have to be far away, but use the digital zooms to get a close up. Avoid taking the picture from close up, on the macro setting. Try further away, then zoom in.

When I get too close with the lesn, it comes out blurry anyways.

Some cams require a 100% steady hand too. If you're hand is shaking, it can produce a blurry shot too.
