very nice ben but whats with the arro ???
how come got head dress ???
Hi guys,
Was trying out a compact digital camera and thought I'll share the results.
All the above were taken at C328 and Qian Hu.
As a lightweight happy snappy to get some pictures from LFS, this camera is still acceptable. To get a full frame shot of a neon tetra, it's not going to be able to deliver.
For those into aquatic plants, and aquascape pictures, this fella should be able to give you what you are looking for, provided you know how to make the most out of it's limitations.
One thing to note, it takes good videos in the LFS. Too bad I don't know how to upload them.
I think the only competition in this featherweight class would be Panasonic's Lumix FX-7.
Cheers,
I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?

Er... getting ready for the Lion Dance routine for the upcoming Chinese New year event?
Actually, it's gill deformities. Sad case. I got a video of that too. Wonder where to upload.

for a P/S, I think its already good enough.. but the flash a tad too harsh.. now u got a camera to carry around without complaining about the weight

thanks!
Benny,
Are all the pictures point and shoot or were you using some of the more advanced features (if any)?

Why use punctuation? See what a difference it makes:A woman, without her man, is nothing.

Very nice results.
The first pic looked very natural. Was any flash used or is an external/ remote flash used?

That explains why the person behind the camera is just as important.

Mostly shot with macro setting using the manual mode. Nothing special. BUT, have a lint free cloth/hankerchief to clean the outside glass at least.
Cheers.

Nope, using the standard function. This camera is pretty basic. It's more of a handy pocket camera good for party shots.
Actual size of the camera. Details and specification from www.dpreview.

Taken without flash. Subject was co-operative. Thank goodness.

Thanks for the compliment. But it's really not that difficult. Just have to know the basics of photography and the limitations of the camera.

Benny,
What were the manual settings you used?
For the pictures taken with flash, how did you avoid the flash reflection on the glass?

To be precise, I set the ISO to 50 and the rest was handled by the camera. (i.e. Auto exposure, Auto focus, Auto white balance).
As for reflection, I either shot at a slight angle or went very very close to the glass. Both ways eliminate reflection.

They are fantastic shots.. I couldn't even make out if there's the glass panel... these shots are clear and shot.. taken using a mid range camera.. wow I am impressed..
did they allow all people to take pictures? or is it because the photographer is benny?
Keen to volunteer yourself and your dog for the Animal Assisted Therapy program?
