I took the dslr out for its 1st outing, never used one before so I'm learning along the way. Been reading the manual and a good book I got for xmas most of the time - trying to learn what everything does

I have a feeling it because I have the quality set on the one of the highest on the camera so when it gets scaled down on here it looks poor quality I have now set it to a lower setting.......see if that makes a difference.

get used to it Gib just take pics of everything on M mode until the image looks good LOL.

The body can only be as good as the glass in front!

was looking at getting a new lense in a few week, don't know either to go for a wide angle or just a better 'all rounder'

thoes pics were took on the P mode, where you set the ISO yourself.

 

[mas]

use m mode, its easy!! LOL

If i were you i'd go for something like a 24-105mm L.... you would never need to take it off, fast focus too

 

[Gib#244]

The M mode is fully manual isn't it! you have to set everything yourself? oh I don't know about that....lol

How much we talking for a lense
