How to Hold your Camera

Keep your elbows together, against your chest.
Keep your left hand under the lens, rather than on the side.
Lean slightly into camera, holding it tight against the forehead.
Keep your legs open.
Same for shooting portrait, no excuses.

Hold the camera with your left hand softly with your fingers around the lens. Keep your left elbow tucked in tightly against your body. Hold the bottom of your camera with your right hand softly and place your forefinger on the shutter release button.
If you want to start using your camera, begin by taking a few pictures. Choose a subject, like a landscape or a pet, focus your camera for a moment, and then press the shutter button. The camera should capture this image. To get the hang of using your digital camera, take a few pictures around your house.

A  white balance setting has a numerical value, (Kelvin temperature) however more commonly  white balance  presets are used which denote their ideal lighting, such as daylight, cloudy, flash, or various indoor lighting scenarios. What is the white balance setting in a camera? The  White Balance  setting you choose will change the colour  balance  in your pictures, making it warmer or cooler depending on how the sort of light you're shooting in affects things.

What is an Aperture? In the earlier blogs while discussing Rule of Thirds, or Night Photography we all have come across a few new words like Aperture, Shutter Speed, ISO. Out of these today we are going to discuss about Aperture. Aperture in very common term is a hole. As a size of hole differs so does the visibility of objects, in Optics/Photography it plays a similar role of Depth of Field. It is denoted by an f no. eg. F 1.8, 2.8, 4.5, 5.6, 7, 10, 13, 16, 22, 32 etc. smaller the number bigger the hole. The best example of an aperture is the pupil of our eye. Definition: In optics, an  aperture  is a hole or an opening through which light travels. More specifically, the  aperture  and focal length of an optical system determine the cone angle of a bundle of rays that come to a focus in the image plane. What is an F/F-Stop Number? The  f -number of an optical system such as a camera lens is the ratio of the sys...
