Working With Your Digital Camera

Try to experiment with different exposure levels. Just like film cameras, digital cameras work best in sunlight. When you take photos indoors, or in dim light, things get much trickier. So take some time and experiment with different exposure levels.
Shoot your subject from different angles, using different lighting. Try turning off the flash, if your camera allows you to do so. If your camera allows “fill flash,” try that, too. Every now and then a perfectly exposed picture is made even better with fill flash. From time to time turning off the flash and leaving the subject somewhat underexposed can add drama to the shot.
Bracket your shots, one shot somewhat underexposed, one slightly overexposed, and one “just right.” Some digital cameras will do this automatically, but even then you need to practice. If you are expecting the camera to shoot one frame and it ends up shooting three you camera is bracketing.
