    You are correct, at no zoom, the lens does cast a shadow, only very slightly if the ground infront of the camera is further away.

    Only way im going to learn is by playing, so i think we need a photography trip.
    Get an off camera flash mate. Some are wireless,some need a lead from the cameras hot shoe to the flash itself.The onboard pop up flash is usually crap at most things.

    I only know the Nikon system which has an inbuilt wireless system, but wireless flash triggers are cheap enough.

    The use of flash in photography can get very complicated and expensive, but to get you started it should not cost too much:

    It is now official, we are not quite so sh@t at cricket as we were! Rugby Union is a different matter.
