I'm not much of a photographer, but have found that it doesn't matter how fancy the camera is if you don't have the correct light nothing works! Try to get as much natural light as you can and then choose your shots based on how the light falls. I was lucky with the CSW as it was in a room with lots of windows and natural light. Good luck and Happy Modeling!! John

V-Bird: Try placing the camera low to track, and keep it level. Also the best light is on overcast or cloudy day, no deep, dark shadows. Wet the areas down with a sprinkler just before taking shots. wet scenery brings out the color in rocks and wood buildings.. Remove anything in back ground that may distract from photo... My blue wheelbarrow seems to sneak in many of my photos..
Have fun!!
