[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 69118, member: 3903"] Part of your question mentions experience. One thing that is true of all experiences is that they have to be lived by the one experiencing them. Photography is like any field you want to learn. Other people can't do the learning for you. There are no secrets but practice, readings and more practice. I could give you different settings, f-stops (apertures), shutter speeds, isos as much as you'd want and you would not learn from it. The best place to start is to read your owner's manual for the particular camera you have. They usually include hints for beginners that you'll learn and remember. Then you'll have to practice. Other people can't do the practice for you. Part of the fun is the learning experience and to see how your photos will get better as you progress. Just be realistic and don't expect professional results as your first couple of shots. I hope I didn't sound too harsh, but there is something called "reality check". Enjoy your Nikon! [/QUOTE]
