[QUOTE="ikandiggit, post: 975302, member: 16269"]It all comes with practice. When I switched to digital, I had to eliminate whole sections of my photography thought processes. I didn't have to process film and photoshop (now I use Gimpshop) replaced the darkroom. I thought I would hate digital until I bought my first camera, which I still use for 90% of my coin photography. Now I love it. The time-savings is wonderful and to be able to modify a picture with a couple of key-strokes is amazing. The way I learned was, first I learned the basics and then I tried by trial and error to get the final results I wanted. It took a while but now I know where to go in the software to get the tools I need to make my adjustments. Because most of my pics are taken the same way (for coins) it's all routine. I can take a pic, get it on the computer, modify and size it, put it on Photobucket and get it to the forum in just a few minutes. Just stick with it. After a while it becomes second nature.[/QUOTE]
