Before we start on the actual camera repair, the usual warning of  “Follow these procedures at your own risk”. These procedures should only be considered as a last resort on a broken camera with an expired warranty. I take no responsibility should you damage your camera in following these steps. Also note that there is some danger of electrical shock from the camera’s flash capacitor. I also take no responsibility if you zap yourself while following these procedures.”

here is your digital camera repair tips. It will be necessary to remove the back face from your camera to access the switch. The procedures vary little from camera  to camera. It  usually  involves   removing all the visible  screws along  the perimeter of the camera (also look for hidden ones,  such as under  the battery door or other camera flaps), then prying the back case off, usually starting at the lower portion of the case. A ribbon cable may be attached between the back case and the camera’s circuit board. Recommend leaving the cable attached as you usually should still  be able  to access  the switch. With the case open, and before proceeding further, remember to discharge the flash capacitor with the batteries removed.

Now note the simplicity of the design of the mode dial. It’s merely a rotating contact plate with two brushes that complete the circuit of the contact dial on the circuit board. With this design it’s easy to see how  the brushes or contact  plate may become fouled with gunk  to  interfere with contact. The brushes  may also  easily become slightly bent, say from a camera fall,   thus   also  interfering with operation. You may have already deduced what we need to do. The first is to clean the brushes and circuit dial of any visible gunk that may have accumulated on them. I recommend a Q-tip, very slightly dampened with a drop of alcohol. Be careful with the alcohol, you don’t want it running all over the circuit board. Remember   to check  and clean off any residual cotton hairs/lint from the Q-tip on both of these components.  A little compressed air blowing would help here. Just as reminder, Rotating camera selector switches (also called “Mode Dial” on Canon camera repair situation) enables the camera to select different modes of operation.

Finally, only bend the brushes if you suspect them of being damaged (remember that time you dropped the camera?  Ain’t it funny that it started to act up then?)  Ever so gently lift up on both brushes to bend them slightly upward to ensure contact with the contact dial.  Emphasis on the gently, we just want to bend them up the tiniest bit. That should do it.  Reassemble the camera and try it out. Good luck!

If you have curly hair start by detangling it before cleansing with a shampoo designed to add back moisture and to treat coloured or highlighted. Towel dry then apply a volume-enhancing product to the roots. Use a curl-enhancing cream, balm or mousse from roots to ends If desired part your hair depending on how you wish to style it. No part is just as beautiful with this hairstyle. Starting on one side, take a 5cm section, clipping the rest of the hair out of the way, and blow dry with a round bristle brush. When dry, roll the section in a Velcro roller or similar, or use your fingers to create a spiral and it up. Repeat the same steps all over until all the hair dry and rolled. If you hair is naturally curly, don’t use fingers to blow dry since this can add to frizz. Edinburgh Hairdresser is the expert for these kind of job.

Face Tips

Start with an eyeshadow in brown on the eyelid up to the crease of your eye. This darker     shade is perfect for hazel or brown eyes. Run a black eyeliner in a thick line along the upper      lash line to enhance your lashes. Apply a black mascara to add volume and thickness to           your own lashes. Finish off your look with your favourite bright colour lipstick.

each section at a time, roll around a curling iron in a spiral pattern. Gently slide the curling iron out from under the curl and pin up in a spiral pattern. Repeat until all sections are curled, pinned and allowed to cool. Once cool, remove the pins and use your fingers to arrange the spirals. Apply a light pomade or cream and gently twist each curl for additional hold if you like. For a more unstructured look, use your fingers to rake curls or bend over and shake out the curls. Finally, apply a shine serum, shine spray or hair cream to seal in moisture and add a shimmering shine. Hairspray is optional. For structure and definition consider accessorising with a headband, bobby pins or barrette. Now you are ready for your photo sessions and it’s easy as finding Edinburgh Plumber on the internet, isn’t it?

You’ve read all the “best digital camera” articles, got the best price on your first digital camera, and even glanced at its owner’s manual. Are you itching to take some shots of your family, or what?

Slow down, soldier. Before you take 200 shots that seem great at the time, but then upon review of the final picture are less than what you expected, let’s prepare. Prepare?!?! I’ll bet you thought charging the battery was the hardest part of taking great photos, didn’t you? Sorry to disappoint you, but if you want to improve your photo results 50% in 2 minutes, let’s review some basic advice of the pros.

There are two categories of GENERAL ADVICE which applies, regardless of whether you’re using a digital camera to take family portrait poses, baby pictures, pet portraits, group pictures, funny photos, or even maternity portraits. The first category is…

1. Prepare For The Event
Prepare for the event by thinking about every photograph you want to take and what kind of photography pose or poses you would like to capture. Consider who, where, how, and the type of environment.

2. Take Multiple Photographs
Take multiple shots of each pose (remember, digital memory is reusable, a.k.a. “free”). Regardless of what you say or do, people will blink. And don’t count on spotting small problems on the tiny camera LCD screen (even on full magnification); which leads to…

3. Check LCD Screen
Check the digital camera’s LCD screen for general framing of the picture, any movement, visibility of faces, and the histogram. Note that you can think up a fantastic photography pose; arrange everyone perfectly; and, have the photograph “frozen” (no blinking, and no shaking of the camera)…but, when you check it out in the LCD, you see 2 drunks fighting in the background! And, my favorite…

4. Funny Phrases
Have some funny phrases handy to use just before you take the photo. Don’t use it when setting up for the shot. And, don’t use the same phrase all the time. Throw in funny anecdotes, phrases, names, words that you know your family will find more amusing than “cheese.” A natural smile looks four times better than a fake one. The second category is

“Location” Advice For Photography Poses
Taking indoor family photography, is very different than outdoor family photograph (duh!). For INDOOR pictures…

1. Wide Angle
You will tend to use the wide angle more often than your telephoto setting. Pay particular attention to your “end people” (those farthest to the right and the left in your viewfinder), and verify there is enough space in picture, so that if cropping is required, the end people don’t have to lose a limb.

2. The Flash
Flash considerations are critical. Do not be outside your “flash range.” For example, if at ISO 100, your flash can properly illuminate 12 feet, don’t attempt any photography pose that requires anyone to stand at 14 feet (unless, of course, it’s evil cousin Ira who you want to appear in darkness).

3. Plan “B”
If you need to be further away than your flash allows, here are 2 things you can try…First, increase the ISO setting (but not so much as to produce to much noise), or second, move to a significantly brighter location.

4. Watch Your Background
If there are distracting features, change your settings to blur the background (see the Techniques page). The best photography pose in the world won’t look right with a distracting background. And finally…

5. Mirror, Mirror, On The Wall
If there are mirrors or reflective surfaces in the background and you can’t find a different location, only take the picture in such a way that the flash is NOT PERPENDICULAR to the surface, but at an angle (unless you WANT a nice photo of your flash).
Outdoor family photography has completely different issues. For OUTDOOR photography…

6. The Sun
Avoid photographing in direct sunlight, or in mixed light and shade, especially faces. Optimal lighting results from a slightly overcast sky.

7. Shade
When photographing in shade, use fill-flash (see terms) when necessary. And, REALLY finally…

8. Beauty
If practical, take the picture at one of the beautiful natural settings near you. Imagine the result of a creative photography pose captured in a stunning environment. Can you say: “Over the mantle!”?
