Re: A return to the past, a retro moment

Not many pictures yet; but here's a test shot of Sher Khan, my mascot, indoor test subject, and acoustical absorber for my stereo system.  Taken with my new-to-me ELPH 330HS.

Hand held, ISO 1600, camera set to 3:2 aspect ratio, +1 sharpening, AWB, about 170 mm equivalent

Note the sharp resolution of the whiskers over the eye, the hair in the ear, and the black lines in the ruff.   Pretty good for a small sensor at ISO 1600.

As most of you know by now, the 330HS was one of those serendipitous cases where all the pieces came together to make a great combination.  After all, the ELPH line is a lower level in Canon's line up, and the sensor and processor in the 2013 vintage 330HS are left overs from the 2012 SX line and apparently used in the SX50HS and SX260HS.
