Yay! SLR stands for Single Lens Reflex... there's a technical explanation for it regarding moving mirrors and whatnot, but basically all professional cameras are SLR's. Generally they have high specs, lots of manual options and the ability to detach and attach different lenses for different situations. (anyone who knows more about cameras feel free to chime in if I'm wrong
sweatdrop ). A 'point-and-shoot' is usually a normal compact camera, which most people use in Auto mode - so you point at your subject and press the button, and that's it. SLR's have a lot more fancy options for different effects and situations
3nodding The picture looks good! Nice setup
whee Personally I think it could do with a bit more light though. If that's hard for you to do, it isn't too hard to fix up in Photoshop or
Picasa. Hope you don't mind, I did a quick change to show you...
I tried doing it in Photoshop but the Picasa one turned out nicer because I'm still not too great at editing, haha. Anyway, it's free, super easy to use and does pretty well in most situations. Here I just hit the basic contrast fix and upped the fill light a bit.
Really cute cupcake btw!
