and I must say I'm impressed. The macro is exceptional!! Not only that, it takes good people pictures and the color is well balanced.
I've been fiddling with the buttons and settings to see what it has, and aside from it all being new to me, it's fairly easy to use. Looks like I'm keeping it! I will miss my Sony's shutter speed though. :( Ah well, it'll go up on eBay today. Gotta pay for my new toy. :)mel btw, here's a little sample... ![]() |

Nice choice Mel. This was done on my Canon PowerShot at the Giants game a couple weeks ago.

That little face is just screaming "can I get away with this if I'm cute and quick enough?" Just adorable and getting so big!

Damn! Now I can't get it out of head. It's OK though, I was fan when he was still alive. Super, Mel! What shutter speeds do feel you will miss? Marc |

Well, since I haven't tried any action shots yet with the Canon, I don't know yet Marc. ;D I just hope that this one can do water splashes, snow throwing and a bunch of kids running as well as my Sony. :) |

Go for it Bill! :) I don't know why, but when it comes to cameras, I always have to try (buy) a new to me one at least once a year. :-/ |

what I want to know is what fuckin retard decided that all cameras must only have a digital screen and no damn optical viewfinder???
Not everyone wants to aim in the general direction of the subject while holding a camera unsteadily at arm's length, squinting in the sunlight so that absolutely no image can be seen! My camera just got busted a week ago, and I can't find a decent one that I can SEE my subject in. Pisses me off. >:( |
Title: Re: Received my new to me Canon PowerShot today Post by Melissa on Jul 17th, 2009 at 8:45pm
Jennifer, that's one thing the Elf has also, a viewfinder. I missed having one because sometimes it is SO bright outside the LCD is washed out.

Until recently all SLR digitals ONLY had the view finders. Only in the past year or so have they come out with the screen ability, too. But then again, the SLR's are a tad bit more expensive ... But you can change lenses, and the pictures are AWESOME! But, it still amazes me the quality that the point and shoot cameras take! The point and shoot are also MUCH smaller. The point and shoot fits right into the purse, without taking all the space. (Or so I have been told) Chuck |
