I would like to see some of your favourite pictures of course.

I think the best to way to learn about taking great pictures is just taking LOTS of pictures (different modes), compare and learn from them.

Also read tips in books and i-net (and the manual from your camera wouldn't be a bad idea LOL), at least that's how I do it.

To know all about it photography, you freakin' need a study, that's not my goal right now but I like it anyway!

And of course with your own input and creativity you get great pictures!

And programs to adjust your photo are essential sometimes !!

It's great to see all of your pictures, keep them comming and don't hesitate to give tips or something

I especially like to photograph nature.

Here are some more a made at a zoo a while ago:

I have no idea what that green stuff is...

This Meerkat (or how your call this animal) was a real funny show-off, he loved to be photgraphed and stayed in position the whole time haha

vanilla_sky · Aug 3, 2008

I love everyone's pictures

Purple Rain, your pictures are amazing... Please post more

I like taking pictures and while i think I have "an eye" for it sometimes, I fall short with technique and weak equipment

hopefully one day i will be able to buy a better camera. I would love to take photography classes too.

kcam125 · Aug 3, 2008

omg everyone's pictures looks really good!! I love them all!!

More Oly users, crazy. I've owned the E-300 since it came out and I've enjoyed owning it. I'm really thinking of upgrading to the new Nikon though since the Oly cams really suck at higher ISOs. I've been doing a bit of sports photography lately and it's definitely not the Evolt's strong point. I absolutely love these cams for landscapes though and they are pretty decent for portraits as well. I've been pretty busy lately so I don't have any recent photos to share.

Hey, you can also post pictures you made a while ago. It's no problem

Vanilla sky, thanks. I also would love to take photoclasses some day!

I absolutely love these cams for landscapes though and they are pretty decent for portraits as well. I've been pretty busy lately so I don't have any recent photos to share. Personally I think that Olympus cameras take the best pictures of any brand for any situation. I don't know why you say 'sports is not their strong point', My husband took some pictures for my sister in law, of her sons football season, and most of the photos turned out like magazine pictures. I have one posted above and here are 2 others so you can see what I mean.

As far as high ISO photos I can't really understand that either. Both of my self portraits above were taken at 800 ISO. I have taken photos at 1600 even and yeah they do go a little grainy but I am sure that there isn't a D-SLR that would shoot ultra sharp pictures at that high of an ISO. Like I said I think that Olympus cameras take the best pictures for any situation, the only real draw back is the lenses are so darn expensive, and I have yet to find a generic lens for it. Maybe the problems you have are just firmware related?

irnogs · Aug 5, 2008

Here are some comparison's on some of the latest Oly models. At lower ISOs noise isn't really an issue (as would be the case for the outdoor photos above), but at higher ISOs the competition really does perform better.

Olympus E-3 Review: 19. Photographic tests: Digital Photography Review

Olympus E-420 Review: 16. Photographic tests (Noise): Digital Photography Review

Honestly, I bought the E-300 in anticipation of Olympus' long awaited release for a pro-model 3/4 system, but I was pretty disappointed by the E-3. Granted, it's a lot cheaper than the pro Canons and Nikons, but when that's the best they have... I need something pretty fast really. I would like to take some decent shots when I go to the longboard races and when those guys are going as fast as 50+mph and it's usually overcast in Seattle. :-/ The burst on the Olys could be better too.
