Hi to all, Just got hold of a 550D Kit I + 50mm F1.8 lens today and only just took a few pics with both the lens. This is my first DSLR and i'm happy with the DSLR quality of the pics when reviewing them from the viewer. Previously i was using a Canon Exilim Digital camera and was really...

There's a rectangle on the centre of the LCD which either shows red or green. Honestly, as of now, i still dun know how i succeeded in taking the 2nd photo. Yea...i have to agree with u that its possible for sharp photo. But its a tad bit discouraging that after taking 40-50 photos, that's the...

Thanks....realised that even with daylight....my camera still shows a "balloon" saying UNDEREXPOSED when my flash is switched off....sigh...so difficult....but somehow the photos "seem" to come out ok...adding a few for C&C...no PP as i dun have the photoshop software.....

*Salute* What an answer.....but some may argue that US sells it cheaper! Bak to your answer....trying to increase post? :p Be more friendly la....especially so this is the NEWBIE section.... Juz teasing anyway, dun start to flame me pls.

Alternatively, u can look at 500D thread as they will highlight how much they bought and at which shop. OF coz, equote is more reliable since u dun need freebies. Cheers

hmmm....ISO800 with AWB & 0EV...very noisy...totally not smooth at all for the pic. As to the manual WB settings...that's very new to me and i'll try it...thanks! Was wondering how to use it just now when i was twigging the settings!

you are right! I was not using any zoom functn of the camera and just lean on the edge of the rocker bed to snap the photo. Thanks for the advice....maybe a little zoom might help but then, my hands will be trembling and...the pic will be blur...just trying to perfect learning my camera as per...

Thanks a lot for the guidance. Will try to use zoom prehaps.

Thanks for the advice Ortega. Under yr advice, i went back to use the pns casio camera and tried to snap a few shots of my baby gal. As i'm unable to use flash on her...i juz played with the ISO, EV and WB....realised that i could take a few pictures and steady hands are required...care to...

GReetings, Juz wanna drop a thread to say hi to all and hope to learn more from you guys. Been reading the various threads and stickys for a few days before i joined. Key reason was the addition of my baby girl to my family 2 weeks ago making me realise my current Casio Exilim EX-Z77 (7.2MP)...
