photography journey.
Through reading, talking, asking and a bit of common sense etc, I have progressed to M mode. A scary jump up from P mode I must say.
I realised that a lot of my focusing issues arose from camera shake. I had many blurry pics to contend with. So, I went to A mode and set the it to 18, then set the S mode to 1/125 or 1/160 and finally turned to M mode. That seemed to keep those settings even if I turned the camera off. I had to pop the flash up for most shots except when in direct sunlight.
It has made a huge improvement to my shots. I get great close-ups and find I don't have to take as many shots as I did before. Saves a lot of time afterwards on the PC. Only drawback is that the battery runs out a bit sooner than before. Not too serious though. Well worth the trade-off.
