after seeing the images here the last few days.. it has made me want to go shoot some stuff..and bring my camera with me always..

However..I have ALWAYS been discouraged about the quality (sharpness) of the images I take..

I see the images RobM. takes and they are truly amazing at times.. LOVE the quality he gets..

I have the same camera Canon G5

I knwo next to nothing about cameras.. can somebody tell me what a GOOD average setting (for all important settings) for my camera to be in order to take decent pictures?

Yes I am aware that different situations (lighting, outside, inside) can all have adjustments on how to set it.. but Im looking for a GOOD starting point..

ANy help is appreciated

thanks gang..
