Yup, that's all good, however I said might be worth a shot if he's got still lizards. Worth a go. Obviously no chance of it working if the lizards are moving, but everything I've read so far points to keeping the ISO low if you can, as higher ISO makes grainy photo's. Mainly just good practice...

Long exposure, more light is absorbed, keep the ISO down, sharper images. As he's working in low light.

Maybe experiment with some long exposure shots if you've got still lizards, would be interested to see how they would turn out as that's next on my 'to-learn' list.

That's fair enough, but depends on the person getting into photography I guess. I picked up a mid-level DSLR and read books/watched tutorials and was off and away after 3 days. Only experience taking photo's previously has been via a phone, so ultimately, none. 2 years to learn on a bridge...

After extensive review reading and research, I went for a Pentax K-S2. Trumped my next favourite (D5500) in almost every way. With regards to the focusing, not sure about your camera but with mine you can change auto-focusing preferences in your menu. I've left mine at the original settings...

Ah thanks! I'm almost completely new to this to be honest, so I've been doing a lot of reading but today was the first day I've been able to have a play around. Loving the camera though. About to head out towards the lagoon for some sunset snaps. I've also bagged Lightroom and Photoshop so...

Can you elaborate?

Hey, I'm just back from the Marina after taking out the camera for the first time. I've got 2 lenses, a 35mm and 10mm (both prime lenses). I'm not sure what camera you have, but the K-S2 isn't a Full Frame camera so my 10mm lens is essentially a 15mm cropped, so not as wide as a 10mm on a FF...

Just bought a 10mm Samyang Prime. Rice and peas for the rest of March. :wozza: :wozza:

Ended up with a Pentax K-S2 with a 35mm Prime lense (Pentax f/2.4). Next on the shopping list is a Samyang 14mm Prime. 2 decent lenses covering every day photography plus a nice wide-angle lense for landscape. Not particularly fussed with anything over 35mm just yet. It's been an expensive...

Thanks Gents. To complicate things, I've spiralled down the rabbit hole after spending 6-7 hours researching and it now looks like the Nikon D5300 (or D5500 possibly) is the winner so far. I'll have a look at your links later this morning. Also, any suggestions on 3rd party lenses? I've been...

Thanks for the suggestion but to be honest, the 760 is quite a way out of my price-range. £479.00 body-only. My budget is pretty much £400 tops, which includes body and 2 lenses (inc. tele lens).

Afternoon all, Venturing into the world of photography as an absolute beginner and was wondering if you could advise on which of the below two camera's I should go for. I'm looking at purchasing one of these, plus a 75-300mm lens for distant nature shots. :cheers: Canon EOS 1200D Canon EOS 100D

Any tips on a good camera (new) for under £100.00 (if there is such thing!) ?

Love the pic, Back at you!
