Talk about buying the horse before the carriage. I purchase the Canon 40d, with a nice lens and I don't know where to start. However before you start throwing stones, here's my ideology. I believe that I should start with a nice camera if technically I want to take breathtaking photos, and just move my way to the top. Does that make sense?
For the past few weeks I've been been figuring out the features (although, I have to say the owners manual and trying to sift through web pages isn't my idea of fun. I've been attempting to understand aperture and white balance (but failing).
Well, I know that aperture determines how light the picture is and the field of depth, right?
*ahem*
I seriously just want to find a guide that starts me from the beginning. Perhaps for me I should learn one concept a day, go outside, and try the concept?
Well, lend me your ears.
Where can I find such a book or website that starts teaching me concepts and how to actually use my camera? Don't recommend me a book like Understanding Exposure, when I don't even know how to balance Aperture and White Balance correctly.
Thanks for reading
