CD Freaks is proud to present its latest forum section addition, a Digital Camera Discussion Forum. In here, you can discuss about anything camera related, such as everything from learning its features, what lens to get for your DSLR to showing off your latest telephoto marco lens photos.
To get started, we have published the following set of short guides:
- Beware of marketing tricks! Choosing a new camera
- Photography terms (Aperture, ISO, Flash Sync, etc.)
- Camera mode dial, what do those symbols mean?
- Tips for taking better photos
If you have your own tips, please share them! You can reply to any of the above sticky threads or start your own thread in the new forum.

Which is better, Digital Image Stabilisation or Optical Stabilisation or both. Which of the following was taken by which system? Why did one come out so grainy?
Answers in this guide. 🙂
