They reviewed it, liked the resolution, but said that noise levels
even at 100 ISO were "unacceptable."  To give you an idea of what

I think I'll download a couple and crank up the ole Epson 4000 and see
how they look.

Does anyone have any experience with the Sigma EF 500 DG ST flash for
the Canon 350D?  I should appreciate you opinions of this flash: I am
thinking of buying one.

I picked up a Pacific Digital Memory Frame PV1 display.  It does
jpegs, also supposed to do video and mp3, I haven't tried that yet.
screel is about 4.5 inches wide, 3.5 high.
Rather low resolution, quite sensitive to the angle at which it is

Is anyone familiar with ARC software's Panorama Maker 3? I used it a few
months ago - worked GREAT but now I'm running into a problem and was hoping
someone could offer some suggestions, advice, help :)
I keep getting the error "place photos in proper position"  Since I have my

Having little luck photographing a large outdoor tree, no matter how I

I have decided to bring my old Fuji MX-1200 back to life as a second camera.
Problem is i went and bought a 64mb Smart Media card for it and the camera
says "No Card" !. The 8mb and 2mb cards work ok. The only difference that i
can see between the cards is that the 2 and 8 Mb ones ...

I recently burned out the firewire circuit in a sony camcorder.  I'd
rather just get a cheap dv2firewire reader if such a thing exists.  Has
anyone heard of such a thing?  I know of the expensive dv players, but
I just basically need the tape mechanism and the firewire upload part.

I'm a neophyte digital camera user, trying to decide which digital SLR
camera to buy.  I am considering two options, both priced roughly the
same:
1) A friend's used Fujifilm Finepix S2 Pro w/ Nikon Zoom Telephoto

After using a Belkin USB CF reader for some time with no problems, it now
informs me that any card inserted is not formatted. I've removed and then
reinstalled the drivers, and the LED indicator on the drive suggests that
all is functioning correctly - is this our old friend XP ...

I recently purchased a Canon SD550.  It comes bundled with Zoombrowser
for managing downloads, however, I do not like this program and wonder
if anyone here could offer some alternatives?
Specifically, all I want to be able to do is define the filenames based

Some of my video clips do crash WinXP SP2, seemingly as soon as Windows
Explorer reads in the file info, when opening the folder where it is placed.
(I have Windows Media Player 10 for playing the movie clips.)

Today, I took a handful of snapshots (I wouldn't call them
photographs) without paying too much attention and found they were
incredibly blurry when I transferred them to my computer. (I hadn't
paid too much attention when I took them.)

Got a question on focal length. (i'm keen on getting the Canon
PowerShot S2 IS, so will be using this camera as reference to
understand more about those specs.)
The camera has a focal length of 36 (W) -  432 (T) mm. Now, i

Is there any worthwhile alternative to the Pentax 360 flash?
I  look at Digi-slave and other Vititar/Sigma alternative. None of them
had positive review.
Any guru in here can enlighten me .
