| i prefer not using flash. I don't have a DsLr, just a standard slr-like camera so i have some control over manual settings. I don't like using a tripod because it's mostly for candid and spontaneous shots. |

LIGHTING, LIGHTING, LIGHTING! Also, keep your eyes open at all times and keep your cam on you all the time. You'll start seeing things people do as a great photograph.  |

| Use more light than you think you will need, especially if you are not using a tripod and flash. I skated through a photography class with grainy, pix because I didn't use enough light for my indoor shots. Good luck to you have fun with the 35mm. |

| Set the white balance to the "light bulb" setting or "indoor". Otherwise all your pix will come out orange. Set the ISO up very high if you dont want to use a tripod. Your pix will be more grainy but at least they wont be blurry. If you dont know how to set the camera manually, put it on Tv or shutter priority and set the shutter to 1/125 which will allow the camera to set the aperture automatically, and hopefully correctly for the most part.Try not to shoot with a window behind your subject as the glare will throw your autmotic exposure off. But it IS good to shoot with a window behind you or to the side -- it casts very good light. |

| I recommend the FotoSharp (fotosharp.com) Day & Night Exposure Guide. Most interiors are darker than we realize because our brain compensates for the lighting.You'll likely need the highest ISO setting your camera allows and make sure the Noise Reduction is On. If your camera has Image Stabilization or Anti-Shake use it.Good luck! |
