New Camera pictures

Post by Chris Sykes »

As promised, have been using the camera today, took about 40 pictures so far but most of family and friends, but ive uploaded three to my photobucket in their JPEG format straight off the camera with no editing or resizing. Heres the link to the album, just click them open to get a zoomed out view, if viewd at normal image size they are HUGE!!! Click Me Comments are welcome and any tips also welcomed... BTW the cat picture was taken using the auto (no flash) setting at about a foot distance.

Hi Chris,

I did think about you a couple of days ago being able to finally get your hands on the new toy today :lol: It'll take you a while to get used to predicting what you're gonna see from the various settings but so far, so good. Have fun at Conningsby and post some more ;-)

Thanks Dave! Yes i tried the pritty cat on the auto but it came out too dark so tried the auto no flash and it came out brill, was even better on the laptop i had while looking at them. Coningsby should be good if the weather holds up and maybe is clear day.

Chris

We had that sunset yesterday here in Nottingham as well - took a photo of it but haven't looked at it yet!

And although not quite the same model as yours, this might be useful:

It is an alternative way of explaining all the controls - the manual is fine if you know what you want to do!
