Hi, recently my battery charger for my Canon IXUS 30 just died on me.
The light on it flashes now instead of being steady state and the
battery will not charge. I saw that you can buy replacement charges but
i was wondering is their a prog out their or a way to edit a preference

I have just purchased a Cannon Pixima iP8500 and whilst it produces
great colour images I am having trouble with B/W.
I am fairly sure this is down to gas fade in the paper turning the print
a selenium tone, I am using Brilliant Gloss paper.

Can anyone tell me if there is any computer control software where I can
take shot via the PC.
The canon software is OK but Remote Capture will not show in real time
what's in front of the lens, you have to do a test shot.

I'm looking into some deals for Epson Perfection 1670, 2400, 2480, 2580
scanners. The last two come with transparency adaptors. The main problem
I have is compatibility with Linux. I looked at the website for SANE,
which  worries about scanner compatibility with Linux, and these are

I have this camera and have been satisfied with it, but rather than download
the OEM software (Zoombrowser, whooo hoooo) onto a new (work) machine, is
there a bare-bones software set that is required to access and download the
photos. I'm not so much interested in editing, just ...

After using my old faithful Yashica 35 mm SLR for close to 30 years I
finally got a new Minolta/Konica Dimage 20 camera.It was a display
model from one of the local WalMart stores so I got it for $220 but
with the full warranty etc. I talked them into a nice 61" Tri-pod worth

         Guess the launch delay might help me out.  Didn't even think
about taking a pic before my wife asked the question this morning.  Was
mad at myself all day thinking of all the lost advice this newsgroup
has to offer :(

Just bought Nikon Capture 4.2 today, but when I open any NEF or JPG image
with it, the progress meters come up all right, but then the window opens up
and...
The image is all white. There's nothing there. Yet, the image settings

Many of the hot computer deals sites have digital cameras, but zero
insight on if whats cheap is any good. Poking around on a few camera
review sites I ran into way too many cameras that don't exist anymore,
or just one store closing all of them out. Could be good, could be not.

I need a digital camera that let me configure the resolution, lets say,
instead of taking 1024x768 pix pictures I want to take 768x768 pictures
so I dont have to worry resampling them to a prfect square later.
I dont even know what is the name of that feature -or- if that feature

I am considering purchase of the subject camera.
I would like to have comments, pro and con, for this device.
Thank you,

I took a picture of an ordinary 16" fan spinning full speed with my little
Fuji Finepix A205 camera. I'm assuming the fan spins at about 1200rpm at
full speed which is equivalent to 20 laps/second. The Exif from the JPG file
says the shutter speed was set to 1/60s. From what I ...

Hey, all.
I just bought a used 550EX flash, and will (d-uh) need a manual for it.
Any idea if Canon has them for download? I had a wee look on their
site, but have thus far struck out.

About to pull the trigger on a lens, and was wanting some personal
feedback on these guys.  There is a link to their site as a recommended
vendor from Ken Rockwell, but I want to get some feedback from those in
this forum who might have bought from them.
