    Olympus EP3 food Photography (Warning: amaturish attempt) Critic please.

    On the focusing issue, not sure if u can pls share the f-stop and shutter speed u use. The folks here may be able to comment if pics are blur due to camera shake cos ur shutter speed is too slow for hand holding. Or maybe something else. Not easy with baby in one hand.

    How to check if Super Steady Shot is working

    The SSS Bar just blinks when I put it on a tripod. It does not even move up or down. I tested the A330 at Sony Style, and on that camera the bar does go down from 5 bars to 1 or 2 bars when I hold it steady after a couple of secs. So I was expecting it to work the same way on my A200.

    How to check if Super Steady Shot is working

    Well I am already leaning towards bring it to the Sony Service center to let them have a look. I think the service cost is $30 already without replacing anything. If the SSS or Image Stabilization module needs replacement, I wonder if anyone knows how much it will cost ? Since we are talking...

    How to check if Super Steady Shot is working

    I'm using the kit lens (18-70mm) at 50mm and around F4.5 I think. Well, regarding the 1/x rule -- that is why I need the Super Steady Shot to work, isn't it ?

    How to check if Super Steady Shot is working

    Thanks for the suggestions. But with a shutter speed at 1/60s, it is still flashing and bar does not go down. I would think that I should be able to hold it steady at 1/60. Then I put it on a tripod and it is still the same. I was able to get the bar to go down when I tried the A330 at Sony...

    How to check if Super Steady Shot is working

    Need some advice. In the A200 manual on pg 46 it says to wait until the Super Steady Shot (SSS) Scale becomes low and then start shooting. But on my camera, the SSS Indicator just flashes and the scale never becomes low, even after waiting for a minute. Tonight I tried a A330 at Sony Style...

    Kingston 16GB Elite Pro CF in A200

    Ok thank you all for the feedback. I think you all are right about the speed thing with Kingston, so I will consider carefully. The 16GB card is going for like $37, so it is also very tempting.

    Hi, Has anyone tried the Kingston 16GB Elite Pro (133x) CF Card in an A200 ? I was wondering if a. you have had any problems using such a large capacity card in the A200 b. any problems with the card being too slow when writing Raw images ? I read elsewhere that it seems much...

    transparencies and negatives

    Transparency means a slide, as in using slide film to shoot and then send it to a studio for processing. Print just means either you shoot using a negative film, and have it printed to 10R or whatever size they need you to submit it in. If you use digital camera, a print simply means to get...

    Noobie Question about Rechargables..

    If your camera uses 2 AA size NiMh batteries, check yr manual to see if it will also use CRV3. If it does, chances are you can also use the rechargeable CRV3, known as RCRV3. East Gear has them. Worked fine on my Nikon 3100.

    Recommend budget and compact camera for newbie

    Why don't you just consolidate yr money and buy only one ? Suggest u buy used digital camera as the new ones are still quite ex, even for a 3.2MP. The other thing I've found is that while AA NiMh are cheap, they lose their charge quite quickly and u have to make sure u charge them before u...
