Its not only about owning a good digital camera, it's also about how you use it.

Get The Best Out Of Your Digicam

4. Go candid
Not everyone is comfortable with a camera pointed at them, and they tend to ‘pose’ for the picture, which makes the end result look fake and uncomfortable.

People usually get conscious when asked to pose

Try to capture your subject in his or her element. Take the person you’re shooting to a place where they’re comfortable, or give them something they like to do or anything that will bring out the best in them. In other words shoot your subjects when they’re just being themselves.

The same person in a more candid moment
