Saturday was another bone chilling day here in Minnesota, so we headed to the mall for a little play time with DD. I wanted to play with my new lens some, and just practice in different locations with her doing different activities. I am so dissapointed with how all the pictures turned out. I tried different settings and nothing seemed to help much. And it seemed to take so long to figure out what to even try to use, that the moment was usually lost before I got anything.
I know you can't really give me suggestions without seeing any of the pictures, but can you at least tell me it gets better with practice? And I just need to keep doing the same thing, right? Trying out different places, different activies, different lighting until I see what works and what looks good?
If it does help any though, I can pretty much sum up what all the shots look like. Either too dark or blurry... I think a bigger flash might be in order? Right now I am just using the one attached to the camera - nothing purchased seperately. I guess what my question really comes down to - is do I just need more practice or should I be looking at more equipment? Thanks for the replies if you've made it this far - I tend to get long winded!
