Seeing as I know nothing, and am quite willing to admit that in this company, I need help
I haven't had a lot of time to get out with the camera and take a lot of shots. I've messed about indoors some but haven't got round to working out how to post pics or so (looking at Flickr in a moment), and I don't have anything worth posting atm anyways. However, i'm off to Spain (Villamartin) in a week and it's going to be hot and sunny, blue skies and gentle breezes, and not a sign of an ash cloud anywhere.....
So, knowing nothing, I was wondering about a UV filter, people seem to mention them in passing, and I take it they are used for outdoor stuff with lots of sunlight, possibly to stop the camera getting skin cancer or something. I kinda need advice on whether I need one, which type to get, where's good to buy it from and do I just leave it on the camera (someone mentioned they do this) or take it off when i store it and..... basically I want to know what I need to know
I've kinda thumbed through the dummies book I got with it, but haven't really had the time to mess around as much as I would have hoped.
Oh, i'll probably be taking a fair few photos in a pool hall while i'm out there, which I expect to be a bit darker than your average room, but really not sure about that yet, having never been.
