It really depends on how much I'm carrying and whether I'll be anywhere interesting.<br /><br />I love both cameras for different reasons. When I have my dSLR, I feel like a real 'photographer'. I prefer the photos I take with it; it's extremely responsive in terms of focusing time.<br /><br />The smaller camera is stealthier. Easier to take candids from a short distance, like on the subway. <br /><br />Often I'll wind up with 50-100 shots with either camera at the end of a day. I do recommend having a good small camera so you're not lugging the big one around all the time. It's heavy!!Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13260829805068114560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222523593258151872.post-72246137126532791852011-08-19T06:36:35.459-04:002011-08-19T06:36:35.459-04:00Do you find that having that heavy camera around y...Do you find that having that heavy camera around your neck or on your shoulder encourages you to shoot more pictures than if you just had your phone camera or a point and shoot in your bag? I always find that it pulls on my neck so much, it is a constant reminder of why I bought it and why I carry it around and so I use it more and use it creatively rather then just snapping away with a lightweight camera.<br /><br />Andrea xAndihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11553301027272999190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222523593258151872.post-61178830956959646462008-03-24T23:04:00.000-04:002008-03-24T23:04:00.000-04:00Hi Nikon -Thank you!

Set ISO to automatic or 100 and white balance to automatic. Then the camera choose the best exposure. Later you'll probably want to have more control, then you shift to "A" apertue and choose ISO in regard to the light. Good luck!Fredrikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11116211754147379438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222523593258151872.post-90645512344194682562008-03-22T08:27:00.000-04:002008-03-22T08:27:00.000-04:00Congrats on a successful first week at your new jo...Congrats on a successful first week at your new job!
