    Hello...

    I have always been roaming all over the world,and photography is something which is the 2nd favourite thing in this world,after programming. :D

    Im sure,I will never get time to take a Digital Photography degree course and so I want to learn it myself slowly and steadily.

    Its not that,I want to be a professional photographer and make it as my profession. Its just a passion,as I love to take great pics of myself and my wife.

    I have a NIKON S550 10.1 Mpix Camera ,and I love it.

    But recently,I heard that,for decent and professional photography,you need a DSLR ,which costs a lot :confused:

    But I have seen professional guys taking superb pics with their 10 Mpix cameras. Then why cant I do that with my this camera ??


    What do I need to learn in order to take decent pics?
    Is there any good ebooks or video tutorials ?

    What all do I need ?? :rolleyes:

    Normal photography,everyone can do man...

    My wife's niece is 10 yrs old,but she did shoot the whole Birthday party of my dad for 2 hrs with my Sony Handycam :)

    So,normally everyone knows it man.

    And for professional photography,it needs you to be a Class A Photoshop Designer/Editor, and should have all the knowledge about SHutter Speed, Aprture, ISO control, bla bla bla bla bla... :D:D

    I was a wedding photographer and my experiences are really cool...

    Yes there are rare books for digital photography that you can get from Amazon, but only books can never help, you need to know the basics of framing, aperture and shutterspeed knowledge.
