New Digital Camera

[spaceghost21]

I got a new camera a couple weeks ago, my first other than those cheapo disposable ones.

I bought a Panasonic DMC-FZ7

Here are some of the pictures I've taken:

Tell me what you think, what I can do better etc. Thanks for any tips!

When did you first become interested in flowers?

How about taking a dozen shots quickly in a poorly lit room, and see how that goes? How quickly can it focus, if it can at all?

can your camera take a picture of itself?

For one, focus on the flower and not something else. Don't take pictures in harsh daylight.

adjust your shutterspeed and aperature so that the flowers aren't so overexposed...mainly the yellow ones. In some of your pictures, it also looks like your ISO is turned up too high (Grainy). Try using 50 in the daylight. Then adjust shutterspeed and aperature accordingly.
