I thought it would be nice to have a thread for those of us who enjoy taking pictures but do not have a clue about cameras :?

I'm proud to say " I don't know my DIN from my ISO ".... how about you ?

Also my equipment is rather modest :oops:

But I enjoy getting it out now that the weather is warmer :mrgreen:

Good for you Charles!
Perhaps some of the more experienced photographers could shed some light on this subject for the benefit of us all.
If they sold a book (like the PC ones) called photography for dummy's, I'd be first in the que.

The above URL is one of the clearest explanations of exposure I have seen./
