To capture beautiful photos with digital cameras, the challenges posed are not even great for the experts. However, you need to keep in mind the following 10 common mistakes to prevent "basic" risks.
1. Camera does not have enough features or resolution
Before buying a digital camera, consider your use goals - present and future. In case you want to print more than 8x10 images, do not buy low resolution cameras. Similarly, if you want to "add" a flash, the camera must have support features such as controls and expansion slots.
2. Set low resolution mode
The solution to "stuff" a lot of images in memory is to set a lower resolution than the magnification the converter can provide. This option sometimes "kills" great opportunities-the moments you want to capture with images.
3. The camera is shooting naturally ... out of battery
Digital cameras need a lot of energy. Nothing is more depressing after looking carefully and pressing the shutter button ... nothing happens. Make sure the battery is fully charged before you want to get plenty of shots.
4. There is not enough storage space
Most digital cameras support a memory expansion card. Here, you have to recalculate your needs - especially before important events. If you have a "financially" problem, remove the prints that you have printed or do not need to archive before each "attendant" event.
5. Exercise caution before removing the memory card
Taking a photo activates a sequence of events in the digital camera, which results in an image being recorded on the memory card. This process may take a few seconds - maybe longer if you take multiple photos. Therefore, make sure the time is right before you remove the memory card. Most digital cameras have flashing lights while recording images, wait for the lights to turn off, or be sure to turn off the computer before removing the card.
6. Can not predict and correct camera lag when shooting
The good news is that more and more digital cameras are as sensitive as the mechanical ones - enabling the imaging process right after you press the button. However, in the market is still many machines only perform "capture" a few seconds after you press the button. To overcome this, learn how to anticipate an event's evolution so that it can record "worthwhile" images.
7. Capture fast-moving images in single-shot mode.
By default, your digital camera is set to a single-shot mode. Snapshot is saved before another image is shot. This mode does not matter, but it does cause problems when you take a series of moving pictures at a fast speed - for example, a sport such as ping pong. So again, check the camera settings to match the shooting objective at each specific event.
8. Learn to be an expert
Knowing the shooting skill is one thing, you also have to "memorize" the process of image processing from the time until the "up" to the machine, categorize, backup to CD etc. These can be as easy as "eating candy"; However, follow the process to minimize the nuisance that can cost you time and energy.
9. Depends too much on photo editing software
Graphical software can help remove backlight effects, red eye, increase contrast, etc. However, it is not possible to "completely change" the quality of digital photos. Specifically, if you take pictures in low resolution, hardly any software can "save the situation." Or, yes, you will have to spend a lot of money or time to redraw the whole thing that belongs to the "capture" section of the camera.
10. Save override original image
You are going to apply some of the editing of the photos taken with the graphics software. Inspired by his "level", press Ctrl + S to save changes - accidentally inserted override the original image. Problems arise when you change your preferences or want to implement other actions with the original image taken. Tip: save the original image, preferably to a CD.
