1. KNOW YOUR CAMERA
The amateur who took this prize-avinning picture had mastered his camera
OAMERA manufacturers spend
thousands of dollars each year
in preparing and printing instruc-
tion books which are enclosed with
each camera. These booklets givo
valuable information on the use and
care of the camera but the average
person looks only far enough into
the instructions to find out how to
insert the film and right there they
stop.
Prom the mechanical viewpoint
the box type camera gives us just
about the acme of simplicity. It
usually has two "stops" for snap-
shots and one for "tine exposures.”
However, the manual accompanying
it is worth a careful reading.
With certain types of folding
cameras, you have more to consider
if you are to expect good, clear,
sharp pictures and the manual
should be studied by all means.
You may have from throe to nine
apertures to choose from and shut-
ter speeds ranging, frons, one4ixalf
to 1/500 second, depending on the
type of camera, In addition to these
split second shutter speeds the cam-
era is ;probably equipped for time
exposures.
Before loading your camera -with
film consult the manual so that you
will understand just what is happen-
ing when you do certain things—
and why.
In a recent snapshot contest con-
ducted by sixty-four leading news-
papers seatte»'d t1i:'eu dart Ibe 1,
United States, the picture shown
above was awarded one of the
major prizes in the national awards.:.
The snapshooter who took the Pic-
ture was far from being old in ex-
perience but it is quite evident that.
ho had made a study of his hobby.
and knew what he was doing and,.
what could be expected of his,
camera.
Study the composition of yoixr
pictures, that is, "compose" your •
picture in your viewfinder before
clicking the shutter. Perhaps by
stepping forward a few feet you can
eliminate some incongruous object.
—something that may really detract
from the point of interest in the
picture. Try viewing a scene or sub-..
jest from different angles, then
choose the one you think the most .
attractive.
Too many !snapshooters, when.
taking pictures of their friends,
have them stand as straight as a:
ramrod and look directly at the.,
camera. . That may be all right for a
record picture but the snap would
be much more interesting .if people.
in it were doing something.
If you will give just a little
serions thought to your snaps): lot-
ing and thoroughly know the limita-
tions or versatility of your eaanera.
you will be well rewarded With in-
teresting, ,artistic or story-1;'1ling
pictures which you will be p 1 i:rk,,
Shove your friends and whko will
win their alroiration,
