Don't be shy. Brushing up on some of the basics? The Beginner's forum is for asking basic technical photographic questions about things like shutter speed, aperture, ISO, white balance, metering modes, focusing modes. Use one of the forums in the Photo Galleries section of TPF if you want C&C or improvement tips on some of the photos you have taken. For equipment specific questions, use one of the forums in the Camera Forum section of TPF.
