Where can I learn to use the rebel 300d I can take a picture but I want better ones. Lighting is my problem, need for ebay

I dont understand about setting the lighting and where and how to get the proper lighting. How do you keep the shutter open longer and do I need to set the F stops what are those and how do i do that. I want to photograph things that have reflections or glare how do I get rid of that. Its annoying.

You can get a greater lighting by decreasing the f-stop (which increases the aperature). You can adjust the shutter speed on your Canon Digital Rebel 300D by turning the dial near the shutter button when your camera is in Tv mode. The shutter speed will be displayed on the screen on the back of the camera. As for reducing glare, you can purchase a polarized filter for your lens at any camera store, or online. Make sure that the diameter of the filter, matches that of your lens.

Try using "bracketing" (taking 3 pictures with camera-metered, decreased and increased exposure), just take a look at your canon manual on how to set your camera in Bracketing mode.
Honestly, it comes with experience and trial-and-error method. :))
