great results for solid colored bottles inside our light tent.  but the
minute we try shooting clear bottles we are getting very poor results (poor
focus, faded bg).  can you give me some tips on how to shoot ...

I had the speedlite before I bought the XT.
While reading the manual over again, I noticed at the beginning of the book
there is a difference between Type "A" (E-TTL) and type "B" (TTL) cameras.
Mine was listed as type "A" when I had my film Canon Eos, but what of the

...OK, so the FZ30 image is noisier (though in prints it's not enough to
cause concern), and has marginally less detail and a narrower dynamic
range, but perhaps the most surprising thing here is how well the FZ30's

  I'm in the market for a new digital camera, and I (think) I've
narrowed my choices down to either the new Panasonic FZ30 or the Canon
350D digital rebel XT.  I need some help finalizing my decision.
Here's a description of what I do with a camera, so I'm hoping that you

Has anyone seen this before?
I'm trying to figure out why some of my photos of this old house
undergoing renovation have whitish circles on them and others don't.
Yeah, the house is reportedly haunted.  My mind's wide open.  But what

I have several types of image software, and seem to prefer Picasa2 for
my simple needs. Picasa2 maintains the original image with all its
pixels (5 million in my case), and edited pix can have the editing undone.
My question is this: If I rotate a vertical JPEG image to make it ...

I'm in town (SF) for the week, and thought I'd take advantage of the
700$ worth of "stuff" I can bring back across the line (Canada)
duty-free and pick up a decent digital P&S if I can find a good buy(my

I have an older model Fuji F600 series (can't recall the exact model
number right now, but it took very good pictures and I'm very attached
