Photography tip #72



How many times has this happened to you: at a party or get together, or on vacation you take a bunch of pictures with your digital camera, you check the pictures on the screen and they look good. But, when you transfer them to your computer you see that some if not most are not as sharp as they should be...even badly blurry! What gives???

Well, the pictures will always look nice and sharp on the camera's small screen because it is small. The pixels are close together, so it looks good. Your computer screen is bigger, so it will show the true nature of the pics. This sucks especially if you were gonna use the pics to send to grandma or to friends or to post on your blog or website...but there is hope!

All you have to do is as you look at the pictures in your camera, use the close-up feature to zoom into the picture... this helps you see whether the picture is really sharp or not.
