    My HS50/HS30 EXR - Getting The Best IQ ...

    Still need that monitor calibrated or replaced? Look again, the face is far from "in full silhouette". Try looking at the original image...facial details clearly seen. In your rush to discredit Dave you have failed to closely scutinize the photo. Par for the course. I find it a pleasing...

    DOF questions

    I prefer to call it two gasbags being deflated...again. -- S1OOfs...still more fun than a bag of glass!

    Hs20exr vs Lumix DMC FZ38

    Just passing by to see what's happening in the old forum...I see that the king of snide is still getting his ass handed to him on a regular basis...couldn't happen to a nicer gas bag. -- S1OOfs...still more fun than a bag of glass!

    Orbs Schmorbs

    And some ORBs are in lower orbit than others, flying through our space as perennial reruns dumping their waste products continuously never heading back out into the opprobrium of their myopic existence...this just happens to be one of many cycles to come... -- S1OOfs...still more fun than a...

    Honestly... ORBS make me laugh

    Enlightening, problem solved. I could have sworn the real problem was your snide demeanor, which causes the arguments you have with so many people. Who knew. -- S1OOfs...still more fun than a bag of glass!

    I wouldn't expect a better shot out of my DSLR

    That's a great shot...cute dog. I think that most reasonable people would agree with that statement re this particular shot. -- S1OOfs...still more fun than a bag of glass!

    X10 - my research on WBS

    Judging by my experiences here, I would say that's a 100% accurate assessment. Nice to stop by occasionally and see someone logically dismantle a couple of the biggest pot stirrers on the forum. -- S1OOfs...still more fun than a bag of glass!

    Understanding Criticism

    ...aka the snide squad..."an effete corps of impudent snobs who characterize themselves as intellectuals"...spot on, Spiro! -- S1OOfs...still more fun than a bag of glass!

    HS20 in manual mode .. bird photography

    That's what I'm talkin' about! Nice job Tony, those look great...and I'll bet if you had put one of those pics up first, before the original white sky one, nobody would be the wiser. I love technology. Slides -- S1OOfs...still more fun than a bag of glass!

    Yep, just select the white sky and fill it with whatever you'd like...gradient, object, etc.... Ha! Yes, it does come in handy. :) PS I'll remove my version of your photo whenever you'd like. Slides -- S1OOfs...still more fun than a bag of glass!

    HS20 in manual mode .. bird photography

    Still waiting calmly for your example of such. I wasn't looking for anything...except your examples of a more natural, accurate blue sky. Still waiting. Nobody said you were. How's, why's, and what's? No idea what you're on about. If Daniel had a problem with my reply to him he certainly...

    HS20 in manual mode .. bird photography

    Yes, it is fake...it's just a selectable "fill" option...didn't spend a lot of time searching for the perfect sky. I could just as well have filled it with "bricks" or some such. -- S1OOfs...still more fun than a bag of glass!

    I don't see Tony objecting yet, so feel free to post your example of a "more natural, accurate blue." -- S1OOfs...still more fun than a bag of glass!

    HS20 in manual mode .. bird photography

    See "the look might not be for everyone" above. The white sky looks "unnatural" also...if that makes sense. -- S1OOfs...still more fun than a bag of glass!
