I really like taking photos and videos. I volunter myself to take pictures or videos if ever there would be a party or activity in our family. Can you give me some tips and suggestions in capturing a photo/taking video because I really want to learn more about Photography.

Well, I'm no pro, but I have found that some of the best shots I have ever taken have been somewhat spontaneous. It seems I can capture the best pics when the subject doesn't know I am taking them. It's just more natural this way. I have always been a "people watcher" and at family outings I usually take my camera. Once everyone has gotten settled in and are interacting with each other, that's when I get into action. Then when they realize it, my family usually says "There goes Janelle with that camera again!" LOL

While taking photographs you should first decide about the flash option.Whether it's to turn on or not.It's not advisable to keep the flash always in "on " condition.If you're a beginner in photography,it's best to keep the flash in auto mode.And then concentrate on zoom option.
