Finally got myself a camera!
I haven't held a camera in years so this is gonna take a while to get used to.
Good or bad I'll post the best out of whatever set I've taken at the time I can track my progress :)

Oh almost forgot.
Tips/tricks/advice ect.. are welcome! I know I'm not good lol I'm learning so anything will help :)

3. Little display at my grandparents house. (I shouldn't have centered the focus so much)

Congrats on the new camera!

I think all of the pictures here are pretty noisy (grainy). I would try changing the ISO setting to a lower number and see what you get. Other than that, the focusing is good! Pictures are like my first pictures with my dslr, :lol: You just wanna take pictures of everything and anything to try it out ^_^

I'm assuming Auto cause I haven't changed that.
I still have to read the manual and such cause I was wondering about that.

From here on out Youtube will be your best friend. Watch lots and lots of videos about your camera and about shooting in general. And anything specifically surrounding the type of things you're trying to shoot.
