LOL.. I suppose I'll snap some flowers or birds or something to get some real info on how to take pictures with this thing. Honestly, I want to get better at snapping pics of lights seeing as how my whole business is based on pictures. Marketing ploy or not, I need to figure this thing out.

i suppose if this is for product picture, you might wanna consider a light box

the light outside the window tends to be distracting.

Tomorrow i'm going to look around for a site on some basic SLR configurations, but can anyone refer me to some good reads? I honestly posted in this section because I've always loved to check out what you guys do over here. Some REALLY great photos are posted here!!

I'm borrowing the camera from a friend, so no tripod. Just wanted to get a good feel for what he calls a "basic set up". Canon rebel XTi. I'll have to go through the manual and see how to change the shutter speed. Thanks for the advise!
