I know there is plenty of information on here about taking photos, so please don't tell me to read the library. The more I read on the subject, here and around the internet, the more confused I become. I'm at an age where technology has outran me and I can best learn by seeing it done or specific instructions.
After all of that, is anyone willing to explain to me how to set my camera in manual mode, to take a decent photo? I normally just turn it on in auto and find a source of light which is usually the sunlight. I don't have a light tent or special lights, if that makes a difference.
I was hoping to just get the basic settings to take a clear photo, and then I could adjust the setting to find the effect it caused. That would help me to learn at least a little about it.
Thank you for anyone willing to help me out.
I have a pen I would like to get a good photo of to present to the forum.
