Hello guys:
I am an amateur photographer (kind of starting).
I bought a Nikon D60 and have only one lens (a 18-55mm).
My first objective even with this just semi pro equipment is to take pictures of people at resonable short range... like family pics for example, both only face or full body...
Problem: I get some really amazing pics if very close to the target, or using zoom into the face only... The image quality is great, impressive.
But if I get back a bit to take a full body pic, with some environment around... than the image quality becomes the one of a pocket camera... nothing impressive... nothing appealing.
I tried all possible configurations, I read about all modes, experiment everything, but the results dont make much progress... its just some average quality in the end.
Is it the lens I am using? Would you suggest buying some different lens?
Thanks
