Why the P7700 is a great camera
4 months ago

Simply put, it lets you capture the moments easily.

The following images were shot handheld with my camera held out of my car's sun roof,

on Auto, and of course using the articulated LCD.

NOTE: My car was safely stopped and in park while I took these shots.

Never, Ever shoot from a moving car, especially if you are the driver.

January 1st, on crowded Fith Avenue passing by the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree for a look.

The first image of Atals is actually a 2 shot pano as it would be impossible to get it all in one frame with my P7700. Yes, View NX2, CS4 with Topa noise and Topaz Detail,

The following four images are of the single image I was able to get of St. Patrick's Cathedral, under renovation and not visible due to scaffolding, by sticking my camera out of my sun roof and guessing the composition on my LCD.

The first image is shot on Auto, OOC except NR wtih Topaz Noise, a plug-in for Photoshop.

The second is the same image after the Topaz NR with CA reduction done 'manually' by me in Photoshop CS4.

The third and fourth images are 100% crops of the first and second respectively.

No big deal for Pixel Peepers but may be of interest to those wanting to capture a moment.



Atlas on Fifth Avenue, P7700, Panorama of 2 shots.





St. Patrick's Cathedral under renovation, OOC except as noted above







After manual CA removal in Photoshop CS4

Overall I m very satisfied.

Yes, it costs me time in PP but the ease of handling and shooting the P7700 makes it worthwhile to me, because I can capture the moment.

Thanks for looking.
