Hi guys,
This is actually very pony related as I use my camera so much for taking photos of my collection.
I'm debating if I should invest in a different camera, I'm the problem, or it's a mix. I openly admit I am not technologically savvy. I don't even text, it annoys the heck out of me, if that shows you where I'm at.
My camera is the same brand and a lot like this one, but I don't think they sell it anymore:

I asked either here or at the trading post early on how to get better photos with it and things improved significantly. You can see the progression as I got better if you look through the photos in this section of my website:
http://www.mlppreservationproject.com/mycollection.htmlMy photos just never seem to be as sharp and clear as other people's and even with the settings for movement and poor lighting good luck having any of those turn out. Yes, I read the manual and refer back to it at times. My mom has a little point and shoot Nikon that she paid about the same amount for and I have an older Canon that uses film and we both get great photos with those. My mom isn't technologically savvy at all either. I would kill for my Canon to be digital, I love this camera.
There are some point and shoot Nikon's and Canon's for sale at Best Buy right now for around $100, which I could pull off. Would it be worth investing in one, or am I just going to screw it all up again?
