Also found out about this site too http://www.geofflawrence.com/ (directed there by a flikr member) which is a great resource too. I also have the XSi book for dummies. I am determined like you to master this thing. I have just received a 50mm lens (cheap but better than the kit lens). Good luck (wish me luck too) :)<br />ChristieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233955033219125564.post-16075758281451662622011-01-10T12:52:19.195-05:002011-01-10T12:52:19.195-05:00Sounds like a good way to spend some time.

I took a brief lesson at the camera store but it was just about the basics. I walked out of the store and forgot everything he said. So I use the dvd for the camera and I've been learning slowly. I have graduated from keeping it on auto to using "P" setting which is only a mini step from auto. I don't understand how I never had blurred pictures with my elf but now I have lots of blurred pictures even on auto! I need to make an appt with my eye dr!<br />You are probably quite frustrated with your injury but you really seem to be making a very speedy recovery. Time will fly and pretty soon you will be back to normal. As always, I wish you the very best.Blooming Rose Musingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06927029523022093567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233955033219125564.post-54118198939002417072011-01-10T09:05:35.012-05:002011-01-10T09:05:35.012-05:00Don't feel bad Penny!

I use my Nikon DSLR on auto most of the time and I don't worry about all those overwhelming settings. <br />I sis buy "Nikon for Dummmies" and I took a photography class to help me try using manual settings, but I know I need more lessons to get good at that as there is a lot to learn.<br /><br />Good luck!
