Nice choice of camera :)

I swap and change cameras far too often going from compacts to DSLR's and back again.. Currently on the look out for another DSLR [:D]

It is very easy to use if it's on Auto.  If you turn off the auto modes (more than one auto mode i.e. for Exposure, Aprature, focus, etc..) then it becomes a nightmare to be honest.

 I can imagine once I've got used to it, it will produce far better quality pics than the auto mode.  At the moment it produces out of focus pics in user mode because I don't understand it all yet [:D]

One of the many good features is it recognizes faces.  In the display, a box latches on to a face if you take a pic of a person and it does some wizardry to make the photo perfect.  It also has may programmable modes i.e for taking pics of fast moving objects (bet it can't keep up with the scoobies though!)[:)] and it automatically changes the settings.  I love the zoom on it, so quick to zoom in or out with it being a mechanical zoom.  The focus is great too, if you decide to manually focus the camera on to an object, the screen guides you in getting it right.  If I take a photo of my car, the camera display shows the car and within the display a small box with a magnified view of the centre of the pic shows up and a dial that shows you which way to turn the focus ring to focus it in.  Once its focused the dial turns yellow.

It has video capture too with sound, that is a good feature.

Another thing it has is it allows you to take a photo of an object, and it instantly takes 3 photos.  The 3 photos each have different settings applied so when you view the 3 photos you can choose the best one and delete the other 2.  This feature can be turned off if you have a small mem card.

 Well pleased with it.

Take a look at these pics, the original shots:-

Zoom in on these and you can see the orange peel effect on my paint work:-

This one shows the cloud that was sat on my house, my house was misty and when I went up to Rivington I was above the clouds!! The camera has darkened the pic.  It was very bright.

Yeah ok, I could do a photo shoot around Rivington. 5 mins drive from my house but take it forgranted. Some stunning views from the pike with good roads up to it.

Either that or I wait until I go somewhere away from home.

Lee,

Do you want to buy a new Lowepro Rezo 160AW Camera Bag @ approx 1/2 price? Say £20. RRP £35.

Designed specifically for digital equipment, the Rezo 160 AW is a lightweight shoulder bag packed with features. This bag offers plenty of protection with a well padded interior, soft, brushed-tricot lining plus a memory card pouch that’s integrated right into the reverse-open lid and an All Weather™. A soft, micro fiber cloth built into the main compartment cleans delicate LCD screens and protects against scratches from camera straps. Carry accessories in the roomy front pocket and stretchy side pocket; and use the SlipLock™ attachment tab for additional accessories.
