I put this article together and hope you find it useful. It shouldn't be too
overwhelming even for someone just getting used to digital photography.

Looks good marc. However, I feel the need to add that much of what you speak
of in the article is very model-specific. I own 3 digitals, and none of them
have an "Aperture Priority mode", for example.

Are your digital cameras the pocket version? Most of the prosumer models, and
especially the SLR kind have A, S, P, & M modes, as well as Auto.

FWIW

even my little pocket digicam (totally sux dont buy one) has the modes, there just renamed
for someone elses convenience, and it takes me 30 minutes to figure out where I found it
last time :D

Apparently turning off the pumps helps a lot with getting really clear
shots too.
I'm getting there but still have nothing like some of the shots I've seen.
I need a tripod I think.
