Re: newbie here

thanks for the info... good points. something strange though - i just
got back the first role i've shot with the camera. some of the pictures
are quite grainy. what's that all about? it was a pretty old role of
kodak 400.

i have the canon eos rebel digital... i bought a book called "Canon EOS
Digital Rebel Digital Field Guide" and learned TONS of information... the
instructions they give out with the camera are good but barely skim the
surface as to what that camera's setting are good for...

i would suggest before buying books about what different shots and angles
and whatnot, buy a book specifically for your camera... i read that book
twice and still refer back to the notes i've taken from it...
