ok, well i did my welcom wagon, introduce yourself post... now here i am... with more requests.. if you read my other post you will know i have a crappy cam for now... but heres what i am wanting... is there a topic somewhere already that talks specifically about the cams themselves and the settings and such? if not can there be? i have a hard time believing that my pics come out so crappy just cuz of the cam i use... im sure it is the settings i have it on and how im using it... and thats what i really would like, some instructions from others that use or have used the same cam i am.... i know i wont get the quality that the more expensive and experienced users get, but come on, theres got to be a way i can get at least a decent looking shot with this kodak.... what do ya think?
 
Hi Kassie, and welcome to APF! I'm kinda old, but not one of the "ol timers" being a beginner myself. The
gallery used to be able to post EXIF info of each shot but doesn't seem to, anymore. Download "Irfanview"
which is a free download and have it open your pics. This will provide you with EXIF info so you have a baseline
as to what you're doing right, what you're doing wrong. Without any EXIF data as to shutter speed, fstop, flash,
no-flash, metering mode, etc, it won't be easy to share info concerning your easy share camera:badgrin:

Just looking at your pics, it looks like you're shooting at 400 ISO or more, pretty noisy images, but of course,
I'm no expert. Hopefully someone with much more experience will come along with better advice:-D

Have a nice day and once again, welcome!:-)
 
Just looking at your pics said:
lol, see thats part of my problem.. i am soo new and such a novice, i dont even know what you are talking about when you say 400 iso..... i think i got what noisy means.... kinda blurry, like a fuzz over the shot right? speckles and that type of thing? i am actually trying to find an online college right now for photography, so hopefully ill learn more in the near future... but untill then i just need to rely on u guys for help!!
