I have received my Sandisk Extreme III CompactFlash which is supposed
to have a write speed of 20MB/sec. When I do a picture of 7MB, I get a
write time of 10 seconds. It should be no more than 1/3 second.
Does anyone have an explanation for this?

He laughs at you on usenet and on the phone like Kevin Cannon. It only
takes 25 cents of money to make a payphone call from TX.
Fred Hall also claims you resemble the image of the guy on the Mr.
Clean bottle that janitors use.

I know it says mid may for the firmware update for the d70 but does anyone
have a release date, thanks.

After many years using film SLR's I've bought a 350D.
I have a few questions regarding Colour Space.
Is there an advantage in using Adobe RGB rather than sRGB? (Im saving
RAW)

How do I make acdsee my default photo viewer.  Just got xp and it keeps
launching its own viewer - painfully slow.

I am currently looking at getting a 350D to replace my S50. Main reasons for
the upgrade are I much prefer using an SLR (but my 35mm SLR has long being
gathering dust since the digital age) and I want better performance in low
light situations, the compact just does not cut it at ...

I am looking for a new camera. One major requirement is support for external
flash/hot shoe.
I will probably not usually be creating greater than 3M pixel images, but I
would hope to get very good quality at that size. Higher res wouldn't hurt,

I was able to pick up a 52mm reversing ring this evening for these two
lenses and tried adding an old 50mm F/1.4 AI Nikkor to my 105mm F/2.8D Micro
Nikkor and I must say I'm really impressed at the improvement of
magnification over just using the 105mm.  These were shot at a 45* ...

I'm thinking about buying this filter.  Does anyone have any info on it?
I'd like to know if I can use a zoom lens with it.  It's hard to tell from
the pic on the Sony site.  Also, if anyone has some sample pics, that would
be great as well!

Gentleman:   I am having trouble getting my pictures from my digital camera
to my PC.  I have a DSL connection from Verizon.  When I try to download my
pictures my image software goes through a search of my machine to find the
baud rate that I am connected with.  From 8 K

I have a Panasonic FZ3 camera and need a DMW-CAC1 AC adapter by 5-17. I
tried Panasonic, google, and local stores. Everyone is out of this item. If
anyone can tell me where to buy one and receive it by 5-17, I'll think of
some token reward. Leaving on Alaska cruise on May 18.

For everyone in the UK, do not pay for user manuals from the Canon UK site.
Go onto www.canon.com (US site) and download all the manuals you need for
free in PDF format.
Bizarre that the UK site does not offer the same service as the

I would like to set up the ideal system for digital photo editing. My
current system meets and exceds the min req. for Adobe and the other
photo editing software I use. But I am still having problems with the
color display (the screen doesn't match the printout ). My printer is

Not to sound like a commercial for the Fuji film F10, but after reading the
review on dpreview, it was refreshing to see the direction they're going
with the the noise issue on compacts. It handled ISO 400 well and even
usable 800. 1600 was a stretch. Certainly no SLR, but it is ...
