I shot in manual all day!

[cardinalskate]

I just have a P&S, but I finally got out of manual mode today, and even though I need a lot more practice, I can tell a huge difference in my photos! I am so pleased. I'm gonna study up some more, and do it more often!
These are SOOC.









They're by no means perfect, but like I said, I can tell a big difference from just playing in manual and shooting in auto! I'm really happy!

They look great!

Beautiful photos!

[isaacsmom]

Awesome!

[pbrooks]

They are great!

[MommaTrish]

Those are great!
I also have a P&S and I almost never use any of the auto features any more. When I use the manual mode they just tend to come out soooo much better!

Yay for shooting in manual! The difference between the two is amazing!

[nun69]

great shots...keep it up!

[Leontine78]

I need to do that also....but I am afraid......
But your photos look great for a first starter....I can't even get my photos like that on the AV mode....

Manual scares me too, especially indoors. My photos are always too dark, like you can hardly see anything in the photo.

[Kara]

Way to go!

[cardinalskate]

Leah, I am seeing that now for sure! Shooting outside was MUCH easier than it is today when I'm trying to shoot indoors. Practice makes perfect. Thank goodness I'm not trying to photograph anything special...half my pictures would be ruined!

Great pictures! Love especially No. 2. I also use manual on a P&S camera, and I think it's definitely worth it. It's even better indoors once you get the grip of it. ;-)

If you always make some in auto and some in manual you might still get good pictures during the transition period. ;-)

I think they look fab! Great job! Something I need to try too.
