With C1 program setting I have programed the camera to take 3 pictures
(normal, under- and overexposure). Sometimes, mostly from picture no
257 in the used SD card, I get the information "Unidentified image"
when trying to look at pictures on the display of the camera. Viewing

Just look at the acrimony caused by Dpreview calling a new Canon
product less than "highly recommended."  The canonfans have gone mad.
It appears (finally) that Dpreview is now treating Canon like every
other company.  Maybe the Canon gravy-train to them dried up?  Maybe

See if you are smart enough to make it out.
Many points outlined below completely disprove your usual resident-troll

Sometimes, when reviewing my shots, I see on that I think will be more
effective in black and white.  I shot some today that I have been
messing around with to this end.  (I won't link to them for fear of

I'm looking to scan a reasonable number (100's) of books (legally).
I've got an opticbookplus scanner, but it's slow and very hard on the books.
So I bought an old plenary/overhead camera book scanner.  After a bunch

I'd like to take pretty decent photos ( I'm not a pro or anything ) with a

I want to start experimenting with neutral density filters and I was
hoping to get some advice on what brands, transmittance / f-stop
reduction.  I am not 100% certain of how the rating scale works.  Some
are measured in attenuation factor, f-Stop reduction and

I was wondering what is the experience of people who have used CHDK
(http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ). In your view, does the increased
access to camera hardware and other features worthwhile the effort to
get it working in a camera? Any stories to tell?

I would like to use my old but reliable Rollie Vivitar ect.Flash Units with
this camera but the trigger voltage is about 80V and the hot shoe is unique
to KM. Digital cameras can't stand these high voltages. There Are Safe Sync
Adapters out there but can't find anything for the Z6.

Lord forgive them.
