-- ---------- "SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS GIFT GUIDE™ 4 - PORT PERRY STAR - Tuesday, December 1, 1992 Tips for taking great holiday pictures The holiday season gives us a lot of wonderful opportunities to create lasting memories. The photographs that you take now, during this special time of the year, will be cherished as. me- mentos of your family celebra- tions in the years ahead. To get the most out of your picture taking, one of the lead- at Asselsles Yamaha YOUR ONE STOP SHOPPIN ing camera manufacturers in the world, has some special hints to help you take better holiday photos. *Don't get bogged down in equipment! The easiest camera to use is an auto-focus, uuto- everything compact with a zoom lens. There's no hassle or fussing with lenses and flash at- tachments. Simply drop in the film and the camera loads itself, advances and rewinds. It also focuses automatically and has a pop-up flash for dim lighting sit- uations. *Have plenty of film! There's nothing worse than running out of film on a holiday. It's almost impossible to find a store open FOR SNOWMOBILE ACCESSORIES Weekly Specials Nov. 25 -Dec.2 Yamaha Boots 10% off NGK Spark Plugs 10% off Dec.3to Dec.9 1993 Bravo Suits 10% off Genuine Yamaha Drive Belts 10% off Dec. 10 to Dec. 16 Yamaha Tops Runners & Sliders 10% off 10% off that day. *Keep your camera ready! This seems almost too obvious to mention, but the best photos are often the ones that are most spontaneous. And if your came- raisin the kitchen, when you've seen a terrific photo possibly in the living room, you've missed an opportunity. *Enjoy the advantages of a zoom lens. A zoom lens lets you adjust the picture from wide an- gle for group photos, to telepho- to, which brings a distant sub- Ject closer or picks out one particular subject. With it, you ean shoot the scene just the way you want it. And the zoom makes it easy...it goes from 38mm to 76mm (and everything in between) at the touch of a button. *Use the telephoto to take por- traits. When photographing children playing with a new toy, use the zoom to get a closeup, rather than moving yourself closer to them and possibly dis- turbing them. You'll end up with a better, more spontane- ous picture. *When taking photos of the kids opening their presents, get down to their level. When chil- dren are playing on the floor, taking pictures from an adult's perspective makes them look as if they've been photographed from a bird's-eye view. Getting down where the action is makes them look more natural. *If your subject is illuminated from behind, use a fill-in flash. Again, the zoom makes it easy because the camera "reads" a backlight situation and pro- vides the fill-in flash automati- cally. And if you're too far away from your subject for the flash, its backlight compensation bal- ances the light in the picture. *Use the self-timer to include yourself in the photo. Finally photos are best if they show the whole family...and that in- cludes you! Use the self-timer, and _you've got plenty of time (about 10 seconds) to join the group in the photo. It's also a good idea to use a mini-tripod (a great stocking stuffer) or a beanbag to stabilize the came- ra. *Don't wait too long to snap a group photo. If you're taking a posed group picture, have peo- ple line up, compose your shot, say "smile" and do a fast one- two-three count so they don't look frozen in-place. The key here is not to fuss too long. Your children won't stop growing up just because you are thinking about which video camera to buy!
