That's a lot of help because I didn't understand what the numbers were meaning when people were saying use 1/250 and actually on your camera it displays it as just 250. | |

if they are coming out too dark then you need a longer shutter speed. | |

I don't get how the shutter speeds work I've tryed messing with it but some pictures come out dark? What mode should I be using when I want to slow down the shutter speeds? | |

Best thing if you want to try some panning shots is to stick the camera in shutter priority mode and play around with shutter speeds. There is a good bit of information here http://www.digitalcameraworld.com/2012/07/21/panning-how-the-pros-capture-motion-and-the-best-shutter-speeds-to-use/ | |

Motorsport - you need to learn ho to pan steadily... it's fucking hard but you're aiming to pan with a car using the lowest shutter speed you can possibly keep a sharp shot with. | |

I'm like Corb, I only learn by doing things and reading is pointless really as I forget many things. | |

What type of photography are you looking to do? | |

I found reading and learning lots about the basic rules surrounding the exposure triangle really handy. If you find it confusing, note the basics then go out and have a play with the camera. Come back, look at the pics, re-read the guides, go and try again and so on. | |

As for tutorials, I personally didn't use any, but there is a YT channel called PhotoGav I think, he is a trainer. You can also go and gather inspiration from the likes of Chromasia, Chase Jarvis, Zach Arias and of course David Hobby. | |

Talkphotography.co.uk is good but very "Perfectionist" in advice... | |

Just got myself a Nikon D3200 as for years now I've fancied taking this photography mallarky a bit more seriously than taking pictures with my phone or a shitty digi cam. Not saying I'm going to make my own website or instanlty add my name to the bottom right of pictures like :lol: but I'd quite like to get more knowledge of different settings and tips for taking good photos etc... |
