Any Pro photograghers here???

I like your thinking man, experiment with manual and it opens up a whole new world, I started years ago (1979) with an old Pentax SLR and a couple of cheap lenses and auto settings were for rocketships

This could be helpfull to you guys starting out

Plants are difficult to. always leave one area out of focus!! Anybody with any tricks or tips would be great.. i use a Canon EOS 30d Rating: 5

I've tried experimenting taking pics in the old garden using manual. A tripod Is a must for close-ups and working with slow shutter speeds. I just managed to hold the camera steady enough to catch my closest (most zoomed in) bud pic to date here i'm impressed but not satisfied. Still need a lot of practice I think, and I'm not keen on the grainy textures.. Might go back to film and darkroom ops. Bookmarked the link! Sorted psychocat

I'm no pro either, and my own digital camera got stolen, but I used to take the hell out of pictures. Every so often I get to borrow someone else's camera, and I take pretty decent pictures for having absolutely no idea what I'm doing. Not trying to jack your thread, but here are a few of my favorite pics I've taken recently

I actually take wild flower photos for a living, you do want to use a tripod , and a small aperature, which is actually the biggest number on your lens, this gives you most depth of field that is the area that will be in focus, try to make sure your camera is parralell to your subject, another key element is to shoot in soft light, i take my photos in early morning the soft light brings out more detail

Im quite into photography myself. I used to have a Canon D30 (not a 30D) a few years back, with a 70-200f4 L and a 50 1.8.

Things were going prety good.. i got a few shots in magazines.. almost bought a 1D.. but then i had a bit of a financial crunch and had to sell it all.. two years later, and im getting back into things. i'v picked up a 17-40 f4L and am looking for a 20 or 30D right now.

here's my old site. I appologize for the typos in advance. http://www.mikelaphotography.com
