Scott Bourne’s Fast Photo Tip #22

Sometimes the most important tool in your photo bag is patience. Stay an extra 15 min on location to see what you’ve been missing. Spend time really waiting for the very BEST light. Don’t settle for good. Wait for great.

Many point and shoot cameras are capable of full manual control. Read the manual and use these cams to the best of their ability. Spend a day shooting only with your compact camera. Be as serious as you’d be if you were shooting with your DSLR. Take your time. Compose well. Use the camera AS IF it were a top-of-the-line DSLR. I bet you’ll get better than expected results.

In low light situations – use a wider aperture and a higher ISO to get the best results you can without flash.
