1. Go to somewhere urban at night
2. Put camera on tripod and point at something you want to photograph.
3. Set camera to aperture priority
4. Press shutter release (2 sec self timer is a good idea
5. Review image, if under/over exposed, alter exposure compensation.
6. Post image on /p/
7. Receive abuse from anons.

What kind of gear will i need?Exact model of DSLR?My friend has a good one but he's probably shit at taking pics and they appear as if they're from a mobile phone.

Anything will get you started mate. Borrow your mates camera and have a play, that's the easiest way to learn. You can pick up old canon and Nikon DSLRs for next to nothing with kit lenses to learn with, see if you like the hobby before splashing out a heap of money.

You're right.Why do his photo look like shit though?The mode i should use it is aperture priority?

You don't need a DSLR. Anything you can put on a tripod and trigger from a remote or timer will be fine.

There is more to taking a good photograph than knowing 'the right settings'. If your photos suck it's probably not because you don't have a good enough DSLR or because you weren't using the right mode.

Use the gear thread.
