Point and Shoot Camera

Photography is not limited with the gears that you have. You can even learn photography just with the use of a basic point and shoot. All you need to learn is the right framing, since most cameras nowadays have a lot of options there are manual modes or program modes that you can play with to adjust the amount of exposure you want your subject to be shot with. Also, lighting is important in photography. Regardless of the expensive gears, a true crisp photograph wouldn't be successful if you didn't aim it on the right lighting. You can read some articles about basic photography online and tips and tricks on point-and-shoot photography. There are also tutorial videos on basic point and shoot framing and lighting on youtube and there is a community on flickr, a group called iPhonography (I posted a discussion about iPhonography you can view my posted discussions for some info about that subject) which is a type photography that uses mobile camera devices such as iPhone as their camera tool.

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. Well i am glad to know that u love photography and i would like to say that it is too difficult to try photography with normal camera. But yes u can do photography with a digital camera. Well i would like u to suggest to have patience and continue with your skills. Try to do some savings from now onwards so that u can get a point and shoot camera in the near future and help your talent go to a next level. What say?

A typical or basic digital camera is usually one with a 50mm lens. With this camera, the depth of field is pretty much the same with the background in sharp focus. This means that this type of camera is always ready to snap at anything at a moment's notice. I suppose the ideal shots for this camera are those spur-of-the-moment poses or candid facial expressions when people interact with other people. Of course, the subject should be within a few feet away.

I think it is possible to learn, I have a Cybershot camera. It`s supposeable a cheap camera (according to many friends who are photographers). I took a couple pictures of the brats for Christmas and everyone thought they were professional pictures, asking where I got them done, or what type of camera I used.

yes you can learn good photography from a point and shoot camera.I suggest you to purchase a camera with full or semi-manual control so that you can do some settings on your own and learn the basics of photography.canon power-shot SX150IS is a great example of point and shoot camera good for beginners as it comes equipped with full and semi-manual controls and its really cheap in my country.hope this help.good luck :)
