kenshinz 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2004 1st pic, area of focus abit off, that's why you get the center sharp, and the surrounding blur. You can try using aperture lock, to make the foreground sharp and the background blur. 2nd pic, nice depth of field, but the top abit cut off, would have looked better if it was in. Nice vibrant colors on the 3rd pic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bpribadi 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2004 Some nature pics I took in Copenhagen 2 weeks ago with my Canon S45. My first macro shots, welcome any comments! Very nice colors! 1st IMHO the focus should be on the nearest flowers. 2nd try portrait 3rd lovely! I like it! 4th correct exposure, but composition could be better, don't put the tree on the centre... My2Cents Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kenshinz 0 Report post Posted September 29, 2004 Don't play play, the image stabilizer ain't for show ... I tried going down to as low as 1/6 handheld, and its still pretty sharp. So far, 1/20 handheld is always sharp on this camera. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
