Hi group
My A95 arrived this morning and I am happily playing with it. I find it
funny that in so many reviews I didn't read anything about how annoyingly
difficult it can be to stick your finger in the small hole in order to pull

I'm sure SOMEONE out there has a neat trick to fix or redesign this serious
flaw in an otherwise well made Nikon camera.
I really enjoy my Nikon CoolPix 3100 but the battery door latch broke almost
the day the warranty expired.

If anyone is interested, I shot some low light pics with the new
Panasonic FZ20 I bought last week. I bought it to shoot silently inside
churches and for those moments when the DSLRs are just too clumsy.

I normally print on paper with the matte black ink. Has anyone used the
matte with canvas and got acceptable results?

Hello,
I didn't realize that holding the camera on it's side (portrait mode)
would cause the video to be recorded on it's side.  On the camera it
looks good, but when dumped to a PC, the .MOV file is sideways so

I've read lots about the D70's tendency to underexpose, and can verify
that it does tend to do this if left to choose an exposure for itself.
The consensus seems to be that this is not a bug but a feature; a
tendency to underexpose protects image data by reducing the chances of

I do some aerial photography (non-professional, but serious).  At the level of work
I do, I cannot come anywhere near justifying a real gyro-stabilized rig, but I could
swing a Canon D20s and the 17-85 IS lens.  I could, that is, if it will really make
 a difference.  Has anyone ...

Got my EOS 350d a few months back and took it on holiday to a sunny place
and all bright sunshine shots are over exposed by at least 2 stops!
Obviously I compensated at the time by turning down the exposure by 2 stops,
but why do I need to do this. I chose Sunshine for the white ...

I am thinking of purchasing a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828 in the UK but when I
enquired in a  few of our bigger London stores they said they had been
discontinued and suggested the reason was because they were clearing them
out to make way for a newer model. However, I can't find ...

Okay, I did some night shots last night, very early learning stage. I
decided on f7.1 (largest number available) ISO 100 and 8 seconds
exposure.
I found, of course, pictures spattered with hot pixels, which I now

Just looking for a recommendation for the best place to archive digital
photographs online.
Basically I want to upload a sizable number of images taken on a recent trip
so that friends and family can access them with a web browser.

I posted a photo of a bird that I was unfamiliar with a month or so ago and
several people helped me identify it as a Wood Stork.  Surprisingly, there
was only one anal type who objected to my post as being 'OT'.   He suggested
a bird forum and I tried it with this latest photo, ...

Saved up money, sold my Oly C-750, bought a Canon 300D, saved more
money, and bought some lenses. The end result is that the number of
photographs I take has steadily declined. I find carrying the dSLR
everywhere is impractical even without all the extra lenses. So now I

Had Camedia software installed on a Windows 98SE PC.
Upgraded PC to Windows XP Pro and all the photos and albums have
dis-appeared? It was just an upgrade and not a wipe and start again.
Done a search on 'C' Hard drive for all photos and all *.jpg files but

When I attempt to show my photos on the TV screen, they only occupy the
central part of the screen and leave a wide black margin all round.
Does anyone know how to make the photo fill the whole of the screen?
Please.
