1) Point it at cool stuff.


Ok, sports mode is a great place to start. It works pretty good. Get a good lens, the 70-200 f2.8 is the standard.

RTFM. Twice.

Twice? I still look stuff up in my manuals.

But seriously that's the best starting point. Would you race if you didn't know what that thing out there by your left hand did?

Hey to both of you guys,

What kinda of college courses would you recommend taking to become as successful as you two? I am currently taking business classes. I dabbed my feet in the photography classes but none of the photography they do is action. I know im not a real photographer if im not shooting people, weddings, or landscape, but i enjoy shooting Moto, Skateboarding, wakeboarding, etc. Any tips or advice?

(I would have asked this in Paul's Photo Question thread but it seems to have died out.)
