Hello there. Hoping someone who knows something is reading this message.
I am new to this site and pretty new to DSLR photography.
I have tons of questions, but will stick to one for now and see if I can get a little assistance.
I have been asked a couple times to do some newborn photography (yes...hard to believe they're asking a newbie!).
I am improving as a go from project to project (newborn and pregnancy photos).
When I've done my newborn photos, I have worked with the AUTOMATIC function as well as the creative modes (mostly just AV).
I want to focus on the entire baby sometimes, but find that the camera focuses only on what's closest (or whatever it thinks it should focus on), so I may get a clear eye and nose and the rest is a bit blurry (in pretty much any mode). I've even tried to set my focus points but that gets annoying too cuz you can only choose one spot of focus and I get a similar partially blurred/partially focused photo.
I see all these photos of newborns where they are in focus from head to toe....how can I achieve this??
Thanks in advance for any assistance
