Hi Guys,
Im new here and im currently on day 2 of my photography attempts.
I have bought a Nikon D3100 with an 18-55mm lens and also a Tamron 70-300mm lens. I did also buy a tripod that is stupidly useless as the camera is WAY too heavy for it. (Kind of dissapointed Jessops didnt advise me to get a better one).
I have taken about 900 photos in less than 48 hours and I have about 2-3 OK'ish shots.
Have I bought the wrong camera? Is the D3100 good enough for crystal shots or am I just doing something wrong?
For example, I tried taking a photo of an ant (a red ant, so its quite big) and the shots are terrible.
Any pointers would be much appreciated. (The best of the ant shots attached).
Thanks guys!
Mike
