Gazzer, you need this link if you don't have a manual for your camera: 300d Manual Link, it can be a bit slow so stick with it.

Settings for shooting start at page 47.
It is essential that your camera is configured to use all it's potential. Section 1 on page 48 explains how to reconfigure the cameras settings. Set it to Large, 6.3mpix.

Sorry to keep banging on about this but it is vital you do this otherwise, with all the help and tinkering around in the world, your camera will only be looking at life through partly closed eyes.

I'm no expert but if you increase the iso to say 400 or higher ( I think this is done using the little roller wheel on the 300d ) this will give more detail as the capture becomes more light sensitive. Also, tightening the aperture will give a much deeper depth of field and hence a more fuller focus. I think that's correct maybe one of the resident experts can advise.

Probably the big mistake you may be making is by not having your 300d configured to use all it's potential. I made the mistake with my 300d of not having the image quality set to Large. This is set in "Quality" on the cameras menu.
Large takes images at 6.3mpix, Medium takes at 2.8mpix and Small at 1.6mpix so make sure your camera is using it's full potential.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
