They are fabulous photos!!! We also have a Canon 500D, I really should sit down and learn to use it properly and maybe buy a portrait lense. How do you change it so you take them in RAW? Thanks Smorgzzz. You need to buy a portrait lense. They are the cheapest lense you can buy and they give great results. It is a fixed lense though, so no zoom, but I just love it. To change in raw, you need to change your camera to M on the dial on the top of the camera Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ You will see that there is an L with a little quarter circle next to it. This means that it is set to jpeg large. If you click on you side arrow button until you highlight the L - then click select, this will take you into that menu. Right arrow across until you get to RAW and then select again. Smorgzzz, you need the book Understanding Exposure, really well written and easy to read and easy to start using your camera on the manual setting. I find that you get much better pictures in manual as you are not using the flash at all. The colours are always a bit washed out with the flash. Quote: Thank you for sharing and thank you for sharing what camera you use. Our DD is nearly 14 and really into photography and we have been wondering what camera to buy her for Christmas, at least now I now what this camera can do which can make the decision a lot easier I have a Canon only because my step father in law has one and I can use his lenses, my FIL uses a Nikon and swears by his. They are really a much of a muchness as to what brand you pick. Canon are generally cheaper for lenses afterwards and that is one of the reasons I chose one. I would go not for the base model the Canon 1100D as it misses a few things, but would go for the Canon 600D - which is the updated model of mine. I have found it on Shopping Square http://www.shoppingsquare.com.au/p_402398_Canon_EOS_600D_KISSx5_Twin_Lens_Kit_1855mm_IS__55250mm_IS_DSLR_Camera for $644 with one lense. When I got my camera, I only bought the single lense kit, you can buy it with two lenses, will cost an extra couple of hundred dollars, but I was told you would hardly use the other lense. What makes good pictures is the lenses, so remember upgrade lenses first and then body. For your DD if you can, I would get a single lense kit 600D and a 50mm 1.8 http://www.shoppingsquare.com.au/p_64468_Canon_EF_50mm_f18_II_Lens bargain at $81.00 and she will be taking lovely photos.
