First, I truly apologize for being completely ignorant when it comes to photography. That said, I'd LOVE some help with just a simple point and shoot camera question.
I have an old Konica Minolta Dimage XG that has taken very decent pictures for the past 4 years or so. I have a few exciting trips coming up and decided to get a new camera to capture them all. With my old camera, it truly was point and shoot.... took great pictures and I never really knew why. My new camera is a Canon SD 790 IS. I've tried using the camera in several different modes (both manual and scene), and every thing I try to photograph turns out very grainy.
I'm not sure if I just have a bad new camera, or if I can't seem to set something right..... OR if the old camera was just way ahead of it's time. I'll post a picture and if anyone has any ideas as to what may be going wrong, please berate me and tell me what I'm doing so very wrong. I appreciate any advice.
Thanks!!
Scott
