I'm not sure what your starting point is, but I have a suggestion: get a cheap digital camera, really cheap. The biggest difference between my awful pictures and Bob Werre's unbelievably good pictures is not the film, it's his eyes and imagination. I could probably learn most of what he knows about film and maybe even get a good approach to lighting, but I could never have his eye for composition. That's where the digital camera is useful. You can get some old 2 megapixel camera from eBay and take hundreds of photographs without paying for film and developing. Once you put film in a camera, you start talking yourself out of blazing away just to see what it looks like.
Get your composition, and to some extent your lighting, as you want it with the digital camera. Then get your film camera to take the picture you want to keep. -Michael Eldridge --- In [email protected], "pflarrian1" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hello all, > > Okay, a technical question from someone who knows precisely nada about > camera use and stuff. > > I have an old 35mm camera and want to take some model railroad pics of > my trains. ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
