I was wondering if anyone could offer me some advice.
I use a Canon EOS 300-D with a 18-55 lens. I have had no problems using this except when it comes to concerts (for example). Unless I use the flash, I just can't get decent pictures, and often using flash just isn't an option anyway.
I think the main problem is for some reason I can't get the aperture lower than 4.5. I've even tried re-setting all the camera settings, but I just can't figure out what the problem is. I know someone with exactly the same camera and he uses the same lens and he's never had problems like this. I don't know if I'm being completely dumb (it is possible:lmao: ), but I just can't figure it out.
I could really use being able to take pictures of a concert on Sunday, so if anyone has any suggestions it would be incredibly helpful. I'd really rather not resort to using a flash again. Thanks a lot in advance for any help!
