[QUOTE="DraganDL, post: 253038, member: 18251"] [COLOR=#333333]Depends on what you mean by "starter settings". If it is "camera menu settings", then these are my basic tips to you: -picture control: raise sharpness for 1 notch (one step above "factory default" value) -use "fine" (less compressed) if you're shooting jpg -noise reduction "low" -you don't really have to restrict yourself on using ISO 100 (only). Feel free to go up to 1600 anytime (especially if/when you're shooting landscapes handheld, at dawn, cloudy/rainy weather, early hours of morning etc.). Get yourself 3 most important filters: SkyLight, circular polarizer and graduated neutral (to compensate for excessive difference in brightness between the sky and the ground etc.). Learn how to use the later two (there are thousands of tutorials out there).[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
