Mr. Jean's new camera

Postby Mr. Jean » Thu Jun 02, 2011 12:54 pm

As I mentioned earlier to some of you, I've got my first pocket camera. :shock: Look out, I could be dangerous. :lol:
It's a Canon Powershot S95 and so far I'm very pleased with it. It takes great indoor shots, without needing the flash feature. Which I have seen/heard that many other pocket types, do very poorly in dark areas. I have no real camera experience, Anne is the photographer in our house. So keep that in mind, when looking these over. :roll:

Anyway, I'm doing a bunch of shooting and here is a few of the shots. I was doing an insurance type shooting of the whole house/garage/yard/toys/cars/equipment. To have as proof, in case of fire or theft. These are a few that I shot in the garage.

I'll probably use this first one for test cropping, bring it closer, as I try to learn Photoshop stuff, now that I have CS5. :wink:

That's Harry, my work/do what ever truck 4X4 down on the end. Anne's Tahoe is usually parked there. :grin:

There's no lights on in first shot and the first inside shots are with the back row of lights off. Then I noticed it when I moved Harry outside. So I turned them on and in the last shot, you can see how much it really lights up in there. :cool:

Hope you've enjoyed these pictures. Comments welcome, as I said, I'm just learning this stuff. :mrgreen:

Thanks everyone. 8)
I forgot to mention that it also shoots video and it fits in my shirt pocket too. :mrgreen:
This thing is going to be a lot of fun, once I learn how to do it all and how to get it up on the web. :oops: :lol:

Great shots Jean!
My wife Sandy got a new Nikon S3100 yesterday so
she can shoot her own photos on our trip to Yellowstone
and the Grand Tetons in a couple of week.
Guess I'm not good enough. LOL

Al, at our house it's Anne that has the good glass and knows what she's doing. :mrgreen:
I'm just learning enough to be dangerous. It's just a point and shoot pocket camera for me. I should manage to stay out of trouble with it. :wink:

Have fun at Yellowstone. It should be really great there this year. 8) I'm sure your shots will be great as usual.

Thanks, Bill. 8)
