Near enough to a full moon, so I decided to test my new Canon S2 IS.  The camera was hand held, auto
settings.  Maximum zoom plus maximum digital (puke!) zoom to see how it would go.  I am very
impressed by the results.

I've got a Kodak DC4800 3.1 MP camera. I like it, and I
appreciate the external flash socket. I use it for indoor,
dimly-lit shots with an external flash. I find the flash on
the camera to be a bit dim. And I find the camera to have

I need some help.  I ordered a Canon lens that qualifies for a rebate,
but the retailer (buydig.com) sent me an International warranty when
the ad said USA. I think the retailer is going to do something to make
it right, but in the meantime my rebate is going to expire soon.  So, I

I'm experimenting with different resolutions on my Canon A520 with a 512 mb
card.
I took 4 indoor shots at different resolutions, of the same object from the
same distance and had 4x6 prints made.

Are color laser printers an option for photo work? I'm looking for an
11x17 printer. I'm frankly not sure I can tell the fine detail
difference of quality between various inkjets and if I was selling
prints, I would probably have them printed for me on photo paper. The

Does anyone know of a simple way to grab a single frame from a DVD to make a
print?
This is from some old family home movies that were converted from 8mm film
to DVD years ago.  I am NOT trying to bootleg anything.

I'm confused, trying to figure out Nikon's "PictureProject"
software (version 1.5) which came with the camera and is now
installed on a Windows ME computer.
I've been playing around with it a bit, and I'm afraid I've

Everytime I try to shoot a red flower close up, I get all the focus on
the background and the flower is blurry. Can anyone suggest what I am
doing wrong, or what settings to use. All other colours come out fine,
but red just wont come into focus.

Canon 10-22 seams to me a bit overpriced. I read some reviews of Tokina
12-24 and unfortunatelly found only a little information about the new Sigma
10-20. I'm shooting mostly architecture and landscape, often stitching a
cople of photos for panorama effect. 18mm of the kit lens is ...

Is there a mass-market photo printer for odd-sized images, eg
not 4x6 shaped or similar?
I'd like the longest dimension to fit in, and the margin to be
left blank on the short image dimension, rather than some stupid

I've been shown and told that computer software for formatting
memory cards are much better than the formatting option in the
camera itself, and the person who had this on his computer told
me it was free and could easily be downloaded.

Yeap thats what i remember in Singapore buying my Minolta7000 and all
the options for it [flash,lens,case,AA battery pack etc]
Got the 300 zoom lens and double adaptor from a Jew Photo Shop in NY.NY
could have been Smile Photo? a few years latter [75% unused!]

I'm new to all this stuff and I thought I'd fool around with RAW images
to see what I could learn.
So... I've got my shiny new Nikon D50, a fresh sandisk 1 gig SD card and
the latest version of iPhoto.

I have a Fuji XD picture card, 256 meg.  Someone accidentally erased the
entire card.  Are they truly gone, or is there an "undelete" somewhere
that I can use to recover the images?
Thanks in advance!
