New camera - what do you think

delta555 · 18 Jan 2006 at 23:58

This is the view from my livingroom, so i take loads of photos of it. Quite handy really. Especially good with a tripod.

These are on my clock, they open and close every few seconds.

Currently my backround.

Got this effect from shining a flashlight into the lens.

These are some of the better ones i have taken.

It is a Canon Powershot A620, which is 7.1M pixels, so i have had to reduce the images for here quite a bit.

looking good

i like the 1st 2 pics

how much that cam set you back?

delta555 · 19 Jan 2006 at 00:30

The camera was £250 from a highstreet vendor. The photos look really good at their full res. Should be taking some of the downs here in Bristol soon.

That it is, unfortunately all the local chavs like to congregate near it by the river. They make quite a lot of noise late at night

1st is over-exposed. 2nd is much better.

2nd is the better out of those last 2. Lucky view point

Nice pics. I got the same camera for christmas, but haven't really had much chance to play around with it yet, what with exams and work

Looking forward to getting the chance to go out with it though

I agree! It's similar (but more colourful and taken from the other side) than the shot that I took whilst out for a walk a couple of weeks ago.

I almost got the same camera, went for the S70 intead. They are similarly priced, Getting mine tomorrow ! Yay !

Any chance of you posting a full size image so we can see the quality? What you've posted so far looks great though

delta555 · 19 Jan 2006 at 23:11

which one

Jotun · 19 Jan 2006 at 23:19

This one if you don't mind, or if you think that any of the others show more quality, whatever you think is best

delta555 · 19 Jan 2006 at 23:29

large canary wharf image
there you go, the FULL image.

I just took this one, this is after editing. I boosted the brightness and contrast then highlighted the colour a little

Thanks for posting. Looks great full size too (something my pictures tend not to do

)

Seems like a pretty good camera for the price :cool:
