So far I've covered my grumpy twat of a neighbour's tractor in tinsel. It was the only time I've seen him genuinely happy.

Nikon D3100 battery currently charging up. Also got external HDD because my old one blew up (kinda), DVDs, booze, chocolates. Sister is happy with her new laptop I've been setting up secretly for her over the last few days (not paid for by me ofc xD). About to go to uncle's for Christmas dinner.

Nice :D.

Cal - Don't even have that camera on Auto for a second :p. Jump straight into "Av" mode (Aperture Priority) Moving the command wheel will allow you to set the aperture to what you want (giving you control over the Depth of Field) and holding down the Av button on the top of the camera and moving the dial will change the exposure bias.

Based on where you are shooting set the ISO to either 400 (For outside shooting) or pretty much max for inside shooting (I assume this will be 1600, although iirc using ISO booston a Nikon it is labelled as "High1/2/3" with "High3" being the max boost (This was on a D5000 though so may have a few more boosts over the D3100, principle should stay the same though :D))

From there, just change the exposure bias to get the shot looking as it does for real, oh, and Make sure "VR" on your lens is set to On!


Oh, and above all, have fun! :D
