My advice is --- "Don't think... Just shoot"

OR....

You can use the accessory lens and use your hp to shoot instead...

If you are looking for good picture quality, composition, framing, blah blah blah... Then you've got the wrong camera. Playing with minimo or Lomo etc is about enjoying the process of shooting, not knowing how the pic will turn out and enjoy it. These gadgets are not for elitist.

Well, like I've said... "just shoot, dun think"... Forget about all the fundamental rules of photography... Just purely enjoy photography as it is. Most importantly, have fun.


The pictures (portraiture part of the shoot) in my multiply are put as private album.

oh. then for portraiture how do i make sure i get the model's face? at least i need to get the face in.

i m now doing what u advised, shoot without thinking so i take out minimo n shoot without looking into the viewfinder. waiting to se the results on my laptop.
