I have been taking pics of my children & their sports teams for several years now with my Kodak Easy Share DX 6490 & am enjoying it but feeling so limited with what I can do. SO I have a couple of questions...
1. I need to learn more about lighting, ISO, camera shake & so much more I can't even intelligently ask what I need to learn. Where would be the best place for me to find the resources I need to learn about getting started without becoming overwhelmed with the wealth of information. It will still be done as a hobby although people are asking me to take pictures of their children because I always have my camera with me at sporting events, school banquets, etc.. (It is quite embarrassing then when the lighting is bad or the pic is blurry) My philosophy is if I take many pictures surely I will have several that I will be able to use.
2. I am trying to save up to buy a digital slr but don't even know where to start looking or what I should look for in a camera. Again, I mostly take pics of my family (birthdays, Christmas, etc) and sports photos (softball, basketball, track, cheerleading, volleyball because my children participate in all of these)
Any help or suggestions would be great & it is safe to assume that I know very little
