Recently I was taking some photos at a children's birthday party that
was lit by an electric light bulb on the ceiling.
my first photos were very dark as it looked like the camera adjusted
to the light source from the lit candles on the cake

1The question of Obsolescence was recently raised and where it comes
to  electronics/cameras:
Electronics (and today's cameras are masterpieces of electronics) is a
rapidly changing field and the parts used in cameras even more so with

There is only one hands on evaluation of a pre-production Nikon 55-200 lens
on the web.
There is no hard information on a release date for this lens.
More important: does anyone really know if Mitsubishi controls Nikon? Or is

How do interpret the figures given for lenses i.e. 28mm-114mm in conjunction
with zoom, f factor etc to gauge whether a camera has a good wide or poor
narrow field of view? I would rather know what width of view the camera
would take at what distance as these figures  are ...

After looking for a few months off and on and reading dozens of reviews
from camera experts and camera users, and getting a lot of help here for
my questions, I bought an HP M517 a week ago, but have a couple of
concerns/questions. I took a lot of pictures in the last week and

Advice please !
I have around 500 Kodachrome and Agfa (CT18) transparencies taken in the
1950's and 1960's which I am anxious to scan and archive to CD/DVD.
Storage over the years has been far from ideal and a large percentage have

I've never had my digital pictures processed by a lab, online or otherwise.  
I read this in one forum, but I'm not a member, so I couldn't ask on the
forum.  What does this mean?  If I were to order a 4 x 6, would it get
cropped to 4 x 5.333?  I don't think that's what being ...

Does anyone know a good program for adding date stamps to pix after
transfering to harddrive? My camera (exilim ex-p700) cannot date stamp at
time of capture. A program that can date stamp without
decompressing/recompressing jpegs would be ideal. Free would be good too.

I have a canon 350d and a selection of canon lenses, however, when i am
out and about, it always seems that the lens i have attached is in the
wrong range, and end up having to change.Given the most significant
problem that seems to arise with dslr's(namely dust ingress), I thought

I've just purchased my second Fuji Finepix F440 camera as I'd like to
try and make a digital stereo camera. However I'd like to remove the
small clip on the side which takes the carrying strap.
I can undo the 4 small screws on each side of the camera but the screws

Has anyone had any experience of using the Megxon C480 digital camera.
I'm tempted to buy one on e-Bay as the price is OK but are there any major
snags involved.
Particularly interested in whether the lens is good or poor.

I'm looking into making a bunch of inside room panoramas. Just taking
a circle of pictures is time consuming and a narrow field of view so I
am thinking of trying a fisheye lens.  My plan is
My s602z fuji with a 55mm tube to 52mm thread. Then a step down ring

Now that I have my 350d (very pleased with it), I noticed I can fill a flash
card quite quickly!.  There will be times (like 2 weeks hols) that I wont be
near a PC to download the images on to.  Can anybody recommend a portable
storage device?

Does anyone have a recommendation for a fast CF card? I see the Sandisk
Ultra II, but it is pricy and I don't want to make a mistake. I am using a
Canon A80.
thanks,
